A rebellious prince's quest for power becomes a battle for love when he dares to seduce the queen who was never meant to be his. Standalone in The Seduction Series *** When Prince Atlas returns to Caledonia after his father's death, he expects there to be rivalry in the royal court, but nothing prepares him for what he discovers. Anna Beaufort-the woman who once owned Atlas's heart-has been named the next queen. Now she rules the throne that was meant to belong to Atlas, and he's determined to take it back. Anna Beaufort, a woman of grace and unwavering loyalty, was once the love of Atlas's life. But she's no longer the naive girl Atlas left behind. She's a queen now. A ruler. Anna is determined to beat her former lover at his own game and keep her title. So why is she still affected by Atlas's charm, his maddening stubbornness, and those bright blue eyes? As secrets simmer and tempers flare, a seductive game of power begins behind palace walls. But the deeper Atlas gets in his cunning plan, the more he realizes his quest for the throne might cost him the only woman he ever truly loved. Some wars aren't fought with swords. Some are fought in whispers and in between bedsheets. Only one can wear the crown...but both may lose their hearts. *** Weekly updates on Fridays.
