Malcolm Hudson has worked for the Queen for years and has never given a personal, private tour—until now.

Book excerpt: Lord Evan Anastas has lived as a recluse most of his life...with good reason. He shares the same surname as the country's worst traitors. But the king has decided it's time for him to stop hiding. It's time for him to step into his royal duties and that means getting up close and personal with the press. But the king probably didn't mean this up close and personal. On a diplomatic trip to Lemnos, Evan meets Brooklyn and unbeknownst to him, she is a member of the very press he has been avoiding. To be fair, Brooklyn doesn't know who he is at first. She is a struggling travel blogger from New Zealand and reluctantly agreed to do a job for her previous employer.

Download or read book Christmas with the Billionaire written by Emma Lea and published by Emma Lea. This book was released on with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘I got stuck in an elevator with a Christmas elf,’ was not a sentence Zoë Farraday ever thought she would have to utter. Asking him to come home with her for Christmas and pretend to be her boyfriend was madness and her only excuse was the trauma of her near-death experience by way of plummeting elevator. Or perhaps the way he filled out that elf costume momentarily melted her brain. It may also have had something to do with her mother’s meddling and the very real possibility of being set up with one of her dad’s colleagues that pushed her over the edge. She didn’t think he’d accept. This is a standalone sexy billionaire romance - no cliff-hanger! *This book is set in Australia and uses Australian/UK English
Download or read book The Poisoned Princess written by Emma Lea and published by Emma Lea. This book was released on 2023-12-07 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I want to set the record straight. Everything you’ve heard about my stepmother is wrong. Okay, she did have a magic mirror of sorts, but that is about the only truth in the tale you’ve heard. For a start, she wasn’t my stepmother, she was my mother. The victors write the history, or at least the ones with the pen do. My mother gets a bad rap because she stood up to some powerful people and those people were the ones who got to dictate the ‘truth.’ The story you’ve heard, or read, tells of a woman twisted by vanity who couldn’t stand that her stepdaughter was more beautiful than she was. Such utter crap. Only a man could write something so asinine. I’m pretty sure that men purposely pit women against women so that we can never unite because every man knows if women could come together, they wouldn’t stand a chance against us…but I digress. According to the ‘history’, my stepmother—mother—was so jealous of me that she commanded a huntsman to take me into the woods and kill me. Apparently, my stepmother wanted to eat my heart so she could become immortal—insert eye roll here. Of course the valiant man did not kill me—insert another eye roll here—but rather helped me to escape my evil stepmother’s clutches. If you haven’t guessed already, I’m not exactly happy with the way things have turned out. Let’s not forget about the multiple attempts to kill me—all blamed on my mother, of course—or the fact that a complete stranger stole my body while I was in a coma…yeah, we’ll get to that. This entire story has been nothing but propaganda. A blatant attempt by a neighbouring king to marry me off to his son, take over my homeland, and dethrone my mother. Well, I’ve had enough. I’m writing this down to document the truth. This is truth as I experienced it…the real truth. This is the full and unabridged tale of my own life. Me, Snow White, the Poisoned Princess.
