The Not So Perfect Princess by Melissa McClone
Duty requires her to marry—but she’s having second thoughts.
Princess Julianna dreams of marrying for love, but no one cares what she wants. The future of her kingdom—and countrywomen—depends on her arranged marriage. Too bad, her intended’s brother is the one who captures her interest with his good looks and sailing skills. She’ll just have to push aside her attraction and do what’s right for everyone else, if not herself…
Prince Alejandro wants nothing more than to relinquish his title. He can’t wait for his older brother to marry and have a child. That is, until he meets the beautiful princess destined to be his country’s future queen. Julianna holds the key to his freedom, yet he recognizes a kindred spirit—someone trapped by the demands of being royalty—and finds her utterly irresistible.
Knowing the royal wedding must occur for the sake of their countries doesn’t stop them from wanting to be together. A happy ending could be theirs if they are willing to accept the consequences of following their hearts. Will duty or love reign supreme?

Wednesday by Clare James
BRACE YOURSELF: Tristan is one demanding man and scenes involving role play, dirty
talk, and spanking pop up when you least expect it.
Now an Amazon Best-Selling Romance!
*Special Pricing of 2.99 during release week, before moving to its regular price of $3.99*
*Real. Raw. Insanely Sexy. WEDNESDAY is a stand-alone story. No cliffhanger!*
He hates her. She loathes him. That’s why it just might work …
Twenty-one-year-old Aria Prince has just moved back to her hometown to start over after a painful divorce. She’s always prided herself on being an early bloomer, but had no idea she’d be married, divorced, and the mother of a toddler by twenty-one.
Unlike her friends who were at school, going to parties, and sowing their oats–wild and otherwise–Aria’s days were measured in the number of orders she took at her family’s restaurant, the chapters she read in her nursing text, the amount of Cheerios she cleaned up off the floor, and the wet kisses she received from her son.
And that was just fine with her.
But when she began running into her former best friend Tristan Green – who was home taking care of his sick father – she remembered what it felt like to be just Aria. Not a single mother, or sleep-deprived nursing student, or royal screw up. And though she didn’t even have time to shave her legs, let alone consider a sex life, Tristan makes an offer she’d be a fool to refuse.
Did she forget to mention that Tristan was gorgeous?
Or that they couldn’t stand each other?
*Wednesday is a gritty and intoxicating new romance from Clare James that will keep you turning the pages well into the night. *
