About this audiobook

Her father is The King of England.

She is The Controversial Princess.

Regarded as down to earth by the press and rebellious by The King, Princess Adeline refuses to bow to the royal expectations her title carries. She knows better than anyone that the united front of the royal family is nothing but smoke and mirrors -- lies and secrets masked by power and privilege. She wants no part of it, and she will never surrender to The King's demand to marry a man she does not love. But despite Adeline's determination to retain her free will, she remains deeply unfulfilled, feeling caged and suffocated.

That is until she meets Josh Jameson. Drawn in by his confidence, Adeline is soon captivated by the scandalously sexy American actor. His ability to penetrate her defences overwhelms her -- his touch is pure fire, and his allure overpowering. Nothing has ever made her feel so alive in a world where she's otherwise slowly drowning. However, while Josh may be Hollywood royalty, he's not actual royalty, and Adeline knows The King and his advisors will do everything in their power to keep them apart.

But Josh Jameson becomes the princess's ultimate vice.

And although she bows to no one, she bows to him.

Ratings and reviews

This is part 1 of a duet that is filled with kink, angst, secret trysts and a whirlwind romance between the royal wild child, Princess Adeline, and Hollywood Heartthrob Josh Jameson. Their romance can never be...she is ruled by the King, who is trying to marry her off to someone he deems suitable-whether it makes her happy or not. Josh, as an actor, is definitely not good enough for someone of her status. She thought it would just be a bit of fun while he’s in town. But when fun turns into something deeper for both of them how are they going to convince the King that they belong together ~ whether he likes it or not?? I can’t wait for the conclusion in August 💕
