The Improperly Pregnant Princess

2015

Scandal Rocks Fairy-Tale Family Seems that the most proper Princess CeCe Carradigne has stunned New York society and royal watchers all over the globe with the announcement that she is marrying longtime business rival (and uncommonly sexy commoner) Shane O'Connell. The lady, recently hand-picked by her grandfather, the King of Korosol, to be the new ruler of the fabulously wealthy European country, is also said to be in...shall we say...a delicate condition. That must be the reason for the imperially instant nuptials. It certainly couldn't be love—not with the public battles Her Highness and His Handsomeness have been said to have displayed lately. Or perhaps passion is ruling these noble newlyweds?

But sources say the convenient nuptials were never consummated, making Amelia a virgin bride and her sexy soldier a single dad in danger of losing his adopted duo. A remarriage is rumored to be monitored by the King himself! This time 'round, will desire blaze between the debutante and her dark knight?

The Duke's Covert Mission

2002

Dispossessed Duke Cadence St. John might be a maverick mercenary. He might have sold his soul to the highest bidder, but he wouldn't hurt shy, bespectacled royal secretary Ellie Standish—had he recognized her that is! She had transformed herself into a stunning beauty for the Inferno Ball, a metamorphosis so complete that, instead of the real princess, his cohorts had kidnapped the wrong woman! Held in the dark confines of a remote cabin, Ellie would be killed if her identity were discovered. Cade vowed to stay near and protect her with his life. But when the heated sensuality of their forced proximity became too much, would Cade be able to complete his mission with not only his life, but also his heart, intact?

The Inconveniently Engaged Prince

2002

Princess Receives Royal Treatment From King's Advisor Sources reveal that General Montcalm has been issued a royal directive: determine if youngest princess Lucia Carradigne is fit to be queen of Korosol. But this assignment may prove more risky to the general than taking a bullet for his king. Seems as if the beautiful princess is testing his resolve—against seduction. And what normal man wouldn't want to fail such a test with the tempting, much younger woman? Still, accounts of the military hero indicate he would never woo the king's granddaughter from the throne to satisfy his own desires. Then again—has his "investigation" wobbled off course? In this quest for a queen, perhaps he'll win a wife!
