Tuesday!
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~~

“Ines, I will not pretend to know what has gotten into you. I suggest you leave at once, and we will simply…forget about this conversation.”

Ines squeezed her hands tight enough for her nails to dig into her flesh. She wanted to jump to her feet and yell, but she would not. She would not. She would be like him. So cool and detached and certain.

For once, she would demand what she wanted. What she deserved.

“I do not want to do that, Alexandre.”

“You married into a system,” he said viciously. “Your wants and desires ceased to matter when you pledged yourself to Alis.”
A system. A pawn. Yes, she’d known her role, but in the past year, outside of her father’s house and rigid rules and demands, Ines had slowly unfurled. Maybe not outwardly, but inside herself.

Her role no longer felt like some fixed, external cage. It was something she got to have some say in. Alexandre could really only blame himself for such a change. He’d let her determine which charities she wanted a role in. He’d given her carte blanche to plan events. He had solicited her opinions on certain matters.

Yes, he was still in charge. Yes, because of years of training she almost always let him have his way, but he’d opened up a new world. He’d given her a small say, and now she understood the phrase Give them an inch and they’ll take a mile.

Because she wanted so much more than his measly inch.

She stood and let her hands relax at her sides instead of clench into fists. Because she had stood, and because his manners were so ingrained, he stood as well. He was taller than her, but he’d placed his palms on his desk and leaned forward so they were nearly eye to eye, only the desk between them.

“I pledged myself to Alis, yes,” she agreed, keeping her voice quiet enough to feel like she was in control. Because she would not raise her voice to bluster. It didn’t work with him. He’d survived too many years of his father. “But I also pledged myself to you, Alexandre.” by @lorrainehallauthor

Her choice: Hate him or marry him!
Two CEOs—one a strait-laced, sheltered, (secret) cat lady who lives in a fairytale-esque castle by the sea. One an (alleged) careless playboy. Bitter rivals, but the only way to save the messes their fathers made out of their respective companies may be to marry! Lots of animals, an odd bookish heroine (my favorite), opposites attract, and a fake relationship. A perfect summer read! by @lorrainehallauthor

Even though it seems to have hit stores pretty early (and yes you can find this one in Walmart!!), today is the official release day for HIS HIDDEN ROYAL HEIRS, book 1 in my Rebel Princesses duet (book 2 hits shelves next month).

Including the online read I wrote last year, this is my TENTH published Presents story (I’m set to start writing my 15th!!! next). It’s been such a great creative spark to sprinkle in something totally different to what I usually write into my schedule.

In this book you’ll find a princess chafing under the rules of her cruel king father, a momentary escape with DOUBLE the consequences, and a damaged hero (of course) desperate to put it all to rights…in his way and his way alone. 🤣

Hope you’ll give it a try, and pick up Princess Beaugonia’s story next month in PRINCESS BRIDE SWAP. by @lorrainehallauthor
