**A future king claiming the woman he loves.**
Prince Alexander, heir to the throne of Valleria, takes his duties very seriously. So seriously, in fact, that he's followed duty over pursuing the woman he's loved for years. However, now it's time for him to marry, and he's tired of waiting. He'll pursue her despite royal objections, and despite her own.
**A commoner falling in love with a prince.**
Rebecca Campo loves her work as chief of staff to Princess Catharine, her friend and Prince Alexander's twin sister. Alex is every woman's dream, and it comes as a shock when he seems to want her. Even after their passions overtake them, Rebecca still doesn't believe they're meant for forever because she's only a commoner, not a future queen.
**An unexpected threat that can destroy them both.**
When a death threat is made against Alex, the whole family goes on alert. What no one counted on, however, was Rebecca getting caught in the crossfire.
This novel features an older virgin and the future king who wants her, a royal family that loves one another (even while they annoy each other), and a look behind fictional palace walls.
This is a standalone book in the series with no cliffhanger. Emotional trigger warning: discussion of potential assault.

Meet the Royals of Valleria, a country as old as the fall of the Roman Empire. The reigning king and patriarch rules with his beloved queen. Nine children, now grown, ranging from the eldest twins to the youngest son, watch over the country they love and care for. Bound by honour, duty, and loyalty, follow their lives as they fall in love, face tragedies, and triumph against the evils facing them.
"If you'd let me- I'd fuck the fuck out of you." He backs me into the hard wall and I gasp as the cold, white concrete wall touches my naked back.
"L-Lucian, we can't. I-I'm marrie-" He cuts me off with his mouth crashing into mine. My eyes grow wide for a short second before closing them to the pleasure of his soft lips. He's been craving this as much as me.
