Royal Secrets

Finally, Desjardins, a small European principality, has negotiated an ambassador from the United States. The ambassador’s daughter Chrissy is hosting her childhood friend Ginny MacDonald for the summer. Both young women idolize Desjardins’ dashing prince, Alexander, but when they finally are introduced to him, that meeting sparks a cruel competition between the two friends—the prize? Alexander’s heart. Alexander Leandres is everything a handsome prince should be. His dark hair and blue eyes melt women’s hearts. But there is something missing in his life of glitz and glamor. When he meets the new ambassador’s guest and acting secretary, his life will change in ways he’d never dreamed possible. Ginny had watched Alexander from afar, never dreaming that one night, in a cape, its hood shadowing her face, she’d creep up the palace’s back stairs, the sound of her own footsteps reminding her of mistresses in a century long past. Inspired by the famous love affair between King Edward VIII of England and the American divorcee, Wallis Simpson, Royal Secrets is a poignant story of love and loss…and of the power of love.
