"I'm just a page, Your Majesty. What could possibly go wrong?"
Ollie Amber-Rose Dawson, Duchess of Wessex, never asked for this. Being a page for a 22-year-old king? Absolutely not on her to-do list. But, as usual, life didn't care about her plans.
When Ollie's forced into the royal court, she's ready to face off with stuffy nobles, fancy dinners, and the world's worst case of imposter syndrome. But what she wasn't prepared for was King George III-yes, the same King George III-staring at her like she'd just walked in with a goat under her arm. And the peonies? Don't even get her started.
Oh, and did we mention Thomas Foxcote? Ollie's new bestie (and totally not the romantic rival to George)? Yeah, he might have a hand in this whole mess too. It's a hot mess, but at least she's good at making things worse.
Chaos, confusion, and an undecided romance await...

Reborn to be Yours [COMPLETED]
"No George. I'm not Olivia." I replied and he chuckled. "Don't joke. I'm serious." He spoke. "I am not Olivia. I'm not joking." I replied. He looked at me confused. "Then who are you?" He asked. "I'm Rose Smith. The one who died six weeks ago." I replied. Not a thriller or anything. Just a simple romance book with a twist. Interesting?

Saving Everest | The Royals
I rounded the corner to the hall, only to smack into something. "I'm so sorry," I apologized, reaching down to pick up a book that had fallen. My heart skipped a beat as I looked up, making eye contact with a pair of hazel eyes. "No worries," the boy replied, his voice rich and smooth, "Are you alright?" I nodded quickly, flashing a smile. I was too stunned to respond. Standing in front of me was none other than Prince Everest Dresden Macallister. "Who are you?" he asked, tilting his head curiously. "I'm Aspen," I replied, trying hard not to look away from his curious stare. "Dresden," he said, holding out his hand. I assumed he was going to shake mine, but instead he brought it to his lips, pressing a kiss against it. My breath caught in my throat, my cheeks burning. "Nice to meet you," I managed to say without stuttering. "My apologies, but I have to hurry. Miss Elizabeth has asked me to retrieve something." He nodded, stepping aside as I hurried into the room. I stood there, taking a deep breath to calm myself. Once I was done, I spotted the prince sitting by the window, the book that I'd picked up in his hand. I ducked my head and made a beeline to the door. "Aspen," he called, making me freeze. "Yes?" "Will you be attending the Charity Gala?" ------------------- Aspen's only purpose living in London was to finish her semester abroad. Or so she thought. She finds herself caught in the middle of The Royal Family and their dark past as she scrambles to sort out the course of her future. Never in a million years did she think she would find herself best friends with Prince Everest Dresden Macallister, the next heir to the British Throne. But it's not long before things start going south. Crush or no crush, Aspen doesn't have much time to prove her friendship to the future King. The clock is ticking. And time doesn't slow for anyone, Royal or not.Terminé
Fᴏʀ Hɪꜱ Sᴀᴋᴇ | ✔
Emily Willows longs for passion, but only with the man of her dreams: the brilliant and dashing Edward Jones. If only her oblivious, dreaming neighbour can stop with all his gentlemanly-ness and just pin her into the nearest solid obstacle available. And then, perhaps encircle her whimpering body into the solid rippling confines of his warmth to show her the greatest pleasure of being alive and breathing, and moaning beneath his- But no, he would not. He could not-he would not even want to. As they've been best friends for, well- ever. And life as Emily knows was already over when the fates showed her the blandest stars in the already sinking cargo of her unrequited love life- by producing the gorgeous product of her gender, as opposed to her own mediocre Tomboy self, the one who'd bring shame to even the finest cream of their species. Lara Williams. It was hard to pretend not to predict what happened after she crossed paths with Edward and yet even harder to pretend that the man of hot blood, desires and virility such as him would not succumb to her charms, and even go as far as to fall in love with her. While it was no secret Emily would rather run away than to stay by Edward's side as a supportive friend as he sees her to be, or rather expects her to be, it becomes extremely challenging for her when he provides her to bear the responsibility of their friendship by asking her the biggest favour he could ever ask. The one favour she was sure no friend would ever ask their own. The one she was sure to lose herself to. The one she knew she shouldn't say yes to. But it would indeed be the one to make her crazy all the way. Oh, dammit, all to hell. __ [ 𝐀𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 ] ➵𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 "𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞" 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐲'𝐬 𝐖𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗, 𝐀𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐇Terminé
The Lotus Trials
Gemma Hart knows well enough what a gilded prison looks like. Paranoid due to the unsolved assassination of their parents, her brother had spent the last seven years ensuring she doesn't face the same fate. Trapped from the outside world, some simple privileges are things she's been kept from. For one, the chance to find her mate naturally. Just days after her twentieth birthday an invitation under her name crosses her brother's desk, carelessly swept away to keep from her curious eyes. An invitation to The Lotus Trials. The series of tests were rumored to be a struggle for the strongest, most agile warrior wolves. Her own father and brother had barely passed the final challenge. But what better chance did she have at proving she could forage her own path in the world outside the border? And how convenient it was that the trials were just days behind the mating ball. ~~~~~ Ezekiel Winters has felt himself slipping, day by day. After the loss of his mate, his grief-like so many others-has driven him to the brink. It's then that a life partner is demanded of him, as a second queen might save him from his darkening fate. Just as he begins to lose hope entirely he stumbles upon a peculiar girl who seems to be an oddity to be competing in the annual trials he hosts. Certainly far too different from his first mate for his wolf to be so drawn to, yet as The Lotus Trials continue on, further and further the king falls, raising a question filled with desperate hope. Can this girl banish his shadows at last? ~~~~~ BOOK ONE. UPDATE EVERY FRIDAY. ENJOY!Terminé![The Secret in East End [Agents of the Crown #1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/76802146-256-k746550.jpg)
The Secret in East End [Agents of the Crown #1]
A FEATURED STORY IN HISTORICAL FICTION HIGHEST RANKING #7 in HISTORICAL FICTION --- Ellie had been undercover for most of her life. She had been a pickpocket for as far as she can remember, under the guise of Elliot. Any memory before the age of ten was blank in her head, with no recollection of how she had ended up under the charge of a gang of street rats as a child. Her life was meant to be mundane, as long as she remained under her secret identity. Until she tried to steal from the wrong pockets that is. --- Fabian Rothesay, the new Duke of Avondale, had spent the last 2 years rebuilding the coffers of his father, in order to ensure that the Avondale estate was not about to crumble around their feet. Taking over his father's spot as the Duke had not been an easy task, but in his doing so for the past 2 years, he has raised as one of the most eligible bachelors of the ton. What the ton doesn't know is that Fabian is biting to return to his previous life. What people believed to be a holiday around the continent, was actually Fabian's cover as he worked as an Agent of the Crown. His new status as a Duke however, did not make him want to step down as an Agent just yet, especially with a recent case that specifically embroils a series of planned heists within the ton. --- As the two are thrown together in a series of circumstances that was mostly chance, sometimes fate, and with a dash of secrecy, how would the turmoil change their lives?Terminé

Violent Delights (Violent Delights Book 1)
In January 1328 fourteen year old Philippa sets sail for England, where her arranged marriage to the young King Edward awaits her. Philippa finds England a hotbed of political intrigue, with Edward's father dead under mysterious circumstances, and his mother eager to take control of the throne. Scheming nobles, a vicious dowager queen, loyal servants, jousts, and psychological warfare ensues. Can Philippa navigate her way through the mess of English politics while forging a relationship with her new husband? Based on the fascinating true story. Trigger/Content warning: this is primarily YA, however, due to the fact that the teenage characters are married there is extended discussion regarding the fact that the characters are expected to have sex. Nothing graphic or particularly steamy on page, but true to reality the teenage characters are in fact married. Some brief violence. Some brief profanity. Some psychological discussions regarding family relationships.Terminé
3,000 Miles Away (King George III x Reader)
"Lieutenant, speak when spoken to-" He choked when he got a glimpse of my face. "Yes, George?" "W-What in all things holy are you in military attire for?" He struggled to gain graceful composure, slowly falling to his knees beside me. "I think I have already told you sir, I do not thrive in dresses." "So you stole that uniform." "Precisely, except 'stole' is a harsh word. I would prefer the word 'borrow'." I smiled at him. ~~~ Thank you for your interest in this book. Yes, it's another King George x Reader book. I hope that I don't bore you that bad with it. Disclaimer: I do not own Hamilton or any of its characters. I only came up with the plot. ***LMAO this is some shit I wrote as a junior in high school damn this is old.Terminé
