A Royal Mismatch: The Trouble with Prince Charming
(*No Rape*) Bringing to you from the Series of The Queens' Trilogy; A Royal Mismatch. From Royal Reject to Accidental Crown Princess: A Marriage of Convenience Gone Wrong . Every girl dreams of being born a princess, right? Not Oriana. Sitting on a little stool, waited on by hand and foot? No thanks. Freedom, adventure anything but the stifling expectations of royalty is what she craves. In fact, she'd rather be scaling the castle walls tonight than attending a stuffy soiree. Luckily, she wasn't born to be the crown princess. In fact, she is the bane of etiquette tutors and the kingdom's resident "bad egg." But fate, it seems, has a wicked sense of humor. Duty throws Oriana into a political marriage with the infamous Crown Prince Adric of Avon. A notorious playboy known for his scandalous lifestyle and disregard for courtly decorum, Adric seems like the perfect escape hatch from her suffocating expectations. Adric, on the other hand, couldn't care less who he marries. His reputation precedes him; a notorious playboy who thrives on defying expectations. But when the fiery Oriana crashes into his world of calculated indifference, sparks fly. Will this forced union ignite a royal scandal of epic proportions or blossom into an unexpected love that challenges the very foundations of their kingdom? Other works of this author; 1.

NARROW ESCAPE
[Music Recommendation: A Royal Affair ~ Ruth Barrett]
Jasmine, who arrived the moment Oriana slapped the maid, ran towards her mother with a worried look.
"Was that really Princess Oriana? Did she slap the head maid?" Jasmine asked, her curiosity piqued to the highest level.
A furious Gwen glared at her daughter before pushing her to the side. "Get out of my way," the woman sighed.
Jasmine twitched her lips, watching her mother leave. Then she turned to the maid, "The Princess really slapped you, yes? Why, that was some harsh slap. Can you even hear me?"
The head maid, who was still holding her ears, stood there in shock. It felt as though distant bells were ringing in her head. She had disrespected the Princess earlier because she clearly looked like someone who could be pushed around, but it turns out that was not the case.
