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.

COMBAT OF THE COURT (I)
Inside one of the rooms in the palace, Curtis fixed his shirt while brushing his hair back. Gwen was still on the bed, her body covered with the sheets. She stretched her hand forward, grabbing a pack of cigarettes. Taking one stick, she lit it and puffed smoke.
"Are you really going to let Oriana be the future Queen of Avon?" Gwen asked, placing the cigarette on her lips with her eyes on Curtis.
Curtis shrugged his shoulders. "We already made the mistake; we can't admit that we lied. Remember when Oriana lied, she had to face extreme punishment. We just have to play along for now."
Gwen nodded. "It's okay. I'll see what I can do to make sure she doesn't get married to Adric," she muttered. Not because she was trying to help her bedwarmer, but because she needed a puppet she could control, and Oriana wasn't that.
