The Secret Kept From The King - Clare Connelly

From the VIP guest's bed... to expecting his royal heir!

After a fleeting yet exhilarating affair with Sheikh Sariq, hotel concierge Daisy's life can't be ordinary again! She resigns herself to only ever re-living the pleasure in her memory. But then she makes a shocking discovery that will cause chaos for this duty-bound king...

Unable to forget their connection, Sariq is intrigued when Daisy declines his summons to his palace. Yet finding out she's secretly pregnant demands dramatic action! She's far from a suitable bride... but for their baby he'll crown her. If Daisy will accept!

One Night Before The Royal Wedding - Sharon Kendrick

A seductive stranger... or her future husband?

Princess Zabrina agreed to a convenient match with a king she's yet to meet to save her country from economic ruin. But before her wedding day, she seizes her first and last taste of freedom with the royal bodyguard! Their encounter is electrifying... until he reveals his true identity.

Roman had wanted to get to know his intended queen better – and he's certainly done that! Yet having witnessed his father's destructive affairs, how can he trust her? But Zabrina won't abandon their bargain, and their unstoppable chemistry isn't going anywhere...

Queen By Royal Appointment - Lucy Monroe

Fifty dates to decide... if she will wear his crown!

As a naive teenager, Lady Nataliya signed a contract promising her to a prince. Ten years later, to release them both, she causes a scandal by going on fifty dates for a magazine. It works... until her betrothed's brother, widowed King Nikolai, insists she honour the marriage agreement - with him!

Her first duty? Finishing those dates with Nikolai. Their whirlwind courtship may be thrilling, but no matter how irresistible Nikolai is, Nataliya can't forget she was never his first choice of queen. His wounded heart will always be off-limits...

About the Author

Sharon Kendrick started story-telling at the age of eleven and has never stopped. She likes to write fast-paced, feel-good romances with heroes who are so sexy they’ll make your toes curl! She lives in the beautiful city of Winchester – where she can see the cathedral from her window (when standing on tip-toe!). She has two children, Celia and Patrick and her passions include music, books, cooking and eating – and drifting into daydreams while working out new plots. USA Today Bestseller Lucy Monroe finds inspiration for her stories everywhere as she is an avid people-watcher. She has published more than fifty books in several subgenres of romance and when she's not writing, Lucy likes to read. She's an unashamed book geek but loves movies and the theatre too. She adores her family and truly enjoys hearing from her readers! Visit her website at: http://lucymonroe.com Clare Connelly was raised in small-town Australia among a family of avid readers. She spent much of her childhood up a tree, Mills & Boon book in hand. Clare is married to her own real-life hero and they live in a bungalow near the sea with their two children. She is frequently found staring into space - a surefire sign she is in the world of her characters. She has a penchant for French food and ice-cold champagne, and Mills & Boon novels continue to be her favourite ever books. Writing for MIlls & Boon is a long-held dream.
