All of Society is atwitter about the arrival of the Royal Family of Athawick, a small island country with important ties on a tour to celebrate the coronation of a new king.

The problem is that only one man has caught her eye and he does not fit any of the criteria required in a husband by her family. Captain Jonah Crawford was part of the Royal Honor Guard that accompanied the Prince Regent on a visit to Athawick two years ago and it was there he first laid eyes on the princess. Since then, much has changed in his life, including a resignation from the position he loved and the undertaking of responsibilities he never asked for. But seeing Ilaria sparks hungers that he cannot deny. As they continue to encounter each other, sometimes even in shocking places like infamous hells, their desire grows, but so is the danger lurking around every corner. And when Ilaria requires a bodyguard, Jonah volunteers. Will burning passion turn to love? And will love be enough to save them when the worst comes to pass? Heat Level: Princesses and Bodyguards and Steamy Clubs…OH MY! CW: Assault This is the first book in the Regency Royals series.

This is the man intended for a woman she considers her sister. She cannot betray someone she loves, even if Thomas does make her heart flutter. An immediate attraction begins to build to a love that can never be. But when Sasha’s life is endangered by people seeking to harm Ilaria, Thomas must decide if he’s willing to lose the woman who has altered his existence in every way that matters.

Or will one careless night years ago end their future before it can begin. This is the third in The Kent’s Row Duchesses Series and can be read as a standalone book.
