The Prince’s Bride Out Now!

May 29, 2024

I’m thrilled to see The Prince’s Bride walk down the aisle of fun, frothy reads this summer. This is the second book in my Hidden Royals series about exiled royalty finding love in Regency England. The book is out now in paperback, eBook, and audio. You can read an excerpt and find all the order links here on my website.

Lady Marianne “Ryan” Daventry was betrothed to an obscure French prince when she was a baby; but years later, the young prince disappeared and was never heard from again. Now Lady Ryan is all grown up, and another French royal is claiming the betrothal still stands—but with himself as the bridegroom. Rather than fight the cruel new prince, Lady Ryan sets out locate the original prince and prove he’s alive.

Prince Gabriel d’Orleans is still living, but he’s difficult to find. He goes by the name of Gabriel Reign and lives in the forest, working as a horse trainer for wealthy clients. He’s hardly a pauper, but he’s also not a prince. His life in the woods conceals his true identity and keeps him safe—but also alone.

Lady Ryan finds the hidden prince, and their road to a happy ending winds through so many delicious tropes: arranged marriage; marriage of convenience; royalty; wallflowers; save-the-ranch (in this case, save-the-estate); and a trope I’m calling, “Raised by Wolves.”

Early reader reviews have described the book as, “sweet, and fun, and light, and swoony….” (GoodReads) and “…funny…sensual, teasing, smart, and witty.” (Amazon). Order your copy today–including signed copies from my local indie bookstore–download the audiobook, or look for the paperback in your favorite bookstore. Happy reading!

 

Cover Reveal for The Prince’s Bride

January 23, 2024

I’m delighted to share the gorgeous cover of my new book, The Prince’s Bride, which drops Tuesday, May 21.

This is the second book in my Hidden Royals series, about exiled royalty hiding inside England after fleeing turmoil in their home country as children.

The Prince’s Bride follows Lady Marianne Daventry as she searches for the long-lost prince to whom she was betrothed as a baby. If she doesn’t find him, she’ll be forced to marry his abusive successor. The missing prince, Gabriel d’Orleans, is alive and well but living like a recluse in a forest cave. He’s become a rugged Horse Whisperer and has no wish to be found. Gabriel’s journey to re-enter society with Lady Marianne is their path to love.

The tropes here are, “Raised by Wolves,” an Arranged Marriage/Marriage-of-Convenience combo, with a little Green Card and The Lion King thrown in….

Pre-order links are up for this wild, funny, sexy book. Watch this space for an excerpt coming soon….
