King, Enemy, Husband is a marriage of convenience, enemies to lovers, royal romance from Jackie Ashenden.

Vows will bind them... passion could ruin them!

After decades under Accorsi rule, King Tiberius has fought to reclaim his crown. Yet the violent coup has left his kingdom divided. To unite his people and quell any discontent, Tiberius is left no choice... but to immediately wed his enemy’s daughter, Guinevere Accorsi!

Wearing Tiberius’s ring frees Guinevere from her tyrannical family. Living life in the shadows is all Guinevere has known, so stepping into the spotlight as Tiberius’s queen is daunting. However, her biggest challenge will be ruling over her traitorous desire for her ruthless husband...

Mills & Boon Modern β€” Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.

About the Author

Jackie writes dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who've just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines. She lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband and two kids. When she's not torturing alpha males and their gutsy heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, wasting time on social media, or being forced to go mountain biking with her husband.
