Book excerpt: More breathtaking than any fairy tale, here are seven scandalous, seductive centuries of all-for-love royal desire . . . Elegant palaces, dazzling power plays, shimmering jewels, and the grandest of all-or-nothing gambles—nothing can top real-life love among the royalty. Louis XIV defied God and law, permitting his married mistress Madame de Montespan to usurp the role of Queen of France, then secretly wed her successor, Madame de Maintenon. Grigory Potemkin was a worthy equal in Catherine the Great’s bed as well as in Russia’s political arena. Dashing Count Axel von Fersen risked everything to save Marie Antoinette’s life more than once—and may have returned her passion. The unshakable devotion of the beloved late “Queen Mum” helped King George VI triumph over his, and England’s, darkest hours. And the unpretentious, timelessly glamorous—even relatable—union of Prince William and the former Kate Middleton continues to enthrall the world. Full of marvelous tales, unforgettable scandals, and bedazzled nobles who refused to rule their hearts, this delightfully insightful book is what the sweetest royal dreams are made of...

Book excerpt: "An addictive series, full of heart and romance and endings that give a happy sigh." - New York Times Bestselling Author Emily March Dog meets girl meets prince. After dumping her rich liar of a fiancé, designer Kelly Chase opts to take her honeymoon solo. What better chance to nurse her wounds than two weeks of beachfront bliss on the breathtaking Mediterranean island of Sarcaccia? Yet when she meets gorgeous local beach bum Massimo—thanks to his runaway dog—solitude becomes less important than enjoying the company of an honest man, one who values people over position and wealth. Fresh from brutal combat, seeking privacy and a chance to heal, Prince Massimo Barrali is intrigued by the gorgeous American who fails to recognize him. He offers her dinner, but dinner and deep conversation become a night of intense passion…until the police knock on the door of Kelly’s rented villa and he’s forced to reveal his identity. Kelly hates that she’s been deceived again. But who is the true Massimo Barrali? The wealthy, worldly prince? Or the thoughtful military man with whom she shared a romantic night under the stars?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georgina, Princess of Wales, has always known her destiny, but she never expected duty to call so soon. When her father dies suddenly, she is called back from her Royal Navy post to assume the crown. While the people acclaim their new Queen, Great Britain’s first openly gay monarch, all George feels is the isolation of her station. Beatrice Elliot’s staunch anti-monarchist views have always been a point of gentle contention with her working class, royalty-loving parents. When Bea—director of a hospice charity—must spend six months working with Queen Georgina, her charity’s new patron, sparks fly and passion blooms. But is love enough to bridge the gap between Bethnal Green and Buckingham Palace?
