With the start of the new Winter Season, however, the competition for a crown just got a lot fiercer. Now that there are two princes searching for wives, Libby struggles not just against the other debutantes but also against the monotony of court life in her new position. With the queen's disapproval aimed squarely in her direction, will she weather the storm to win her prince? ***Please note that this story is the sequel to The Season. Since there are many characters, backstories, and subplots that I won't be able to fully explain in the first few chapters, I strongly recommend you read The Season first!***

"The Caregiver and the Mob Boss" ❦ Avelina makes her money by taking care of those who can't take care of themselves. When she is handed a case about a man who had needed a personal caregiver, she accepts. One thing Avelina never anticipated was the dangerous lifestyle he lived. Not only that, but she didn't expect for him to be so incredibly good-looking. Adrik Zolotov, the Russian mobster that everyone called "Mad Hatter". His insanity and crave for blood left him the most feared man of all. All he wanted was power and those around him to fear him. For a man recently diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, everyone believed him to be emotionally incapable of ever loving anyone. . . Imagine their surprise when he meets Avelina. ❦ "Mr. Zolotov, I have to make sure you bathe before I leave. It's apart of my jobs protocol," she said softly. The truth was that he made her feel nervous. There was so much coldness and evil in his eyes, it left a chill to run down her spine. "Fine," he stated before walking over to his bathtub. Her eyes followed his movements as he pulled off his shirt causing her to lick her lips and quickly look away. She could hear the sound of more clothes falling onto the ground until the sound of water running littered her eardrums. "You assist when asked, isn't that right?" He asked. Slowly, she opened her eyes to see that he had already gotten into the shower. "Yes," Avelina answered. "Bathe me." ❦ Dangerously far from cliché

Als Marie Koopmann beinahe vom überheblichen, unverschämt gut aussehenden Jurastudenten Noah Altenfeld angefahren wird, muss sie nicht nur feststellen, dass er dieses Semester eines ihrer Tutorien betreut, sondern auch, dass die Grenzen zwischen Liebe und Hass sehr fließend sind. ✨ Es gibt nicht viele Dinge, die 𝐌 𝐚 𝐫 𝐢 𝐞 𝐊 𝐨 𝐨 𝐩 𝐦 𝐚 𝐧 𝐧 aus der Fassung bringen. Als Tochter eines national bekannten Verlegers hat sie so einiges in die Wiege gelegt bekommen. Nicht nur den Nachnamen, der für sie wichtige Türen öffnet, sondern auch das Gerede über ihre Familie. Sie ist es gewohnt, dass die Leute starren, flüstern und tratschen. Doch was sie aus der Fassung bringt, ist Noah Altenfeld. Und die Tatsache, dass er sie fast überfahren hätte. 𝐍 𝐨 𝐚 𝐡 𝐀 𝐥 𝐭 𝐞 𝐧 𝐟 𝐞 𝐥 𝐝 ist gutaussehend, mehr als nur intelligent und überaus von sich überzeugt. Als aber ausgerechnet Marie Koopmann und ihr Fahrrad beinahe mit seiner Motorhaube Bekanntschaft gemacht hätten, sieht er sich mit dem konfrontiert, was er alles andere als ausstehen kann. Ein hübsches Mädchen, das ihm den Kopf verdreht und all das bekommt, was sie sich nie gewünscht hat. ❝ Ich senkte meine Lippen auf ihre hinab, und sobald ich sie küsste fühlte es sich an, als würde ein Adrenalinschub mich packen. Auf einmal waren die Blicke und das ständige Wortgefecht zwischen uns nicht mehr genug. Ich fragte mich, wie es das je hatte sein können. ❞ Cover Design by AnnieRosebud
