The Royal Romeos Series


Book Description

Finally, the continuation of the It’s Reigning Men series, set amidst the opulence and splendor of the Tuscan wine country, with the first three books bundled together for the first time. Red Hot Romeo Love the wine you’re with… Alessandro Romeo is burned out after finally extricating himself from a nearly year-long relationship with a hot-tempered Italian model who set fire to his Lamborghini when she suspected him of cheating. He’s sworn off the fairer sex and instead spends his waking hours overseeing the expansion of his family’s hugely successful winery in the magnificent hills of Chianti, where he is happy to never see a model again, let alone date one. American supermodel Taylor McFarland might be blond, but she sure isn’t dumb. And she’s smart enough to know to avoid the shallow men who seem to migrate toward her type, the ones who presume that models are the wild women of the fashion industry who happily discard men like used tissues. Only Taylor’s not that type at all; instead, she’s intent on using the influence her position affords her to help those less fortunate than she. But when her good deeds means clashing with the quintessential heartless Italian player who she’d heard left model Gia Sandretti at the altar, well, she will happily give him a piece of her mind, and certainly not a piece of her heart. Black Sheep Romeo On cloud wine… Sometimes trouble seems to find Matteo Romeo whether he seeks it out or not. Long regarded as the black sheep of the famed Romeo winemaking family, he’s hardly surprised when he finds himself in yet another predicament, this time harboring an unauthorized farmhand who he’s discovered hiding in a tool shed just as the grape harvest gets underway. Freespirited Lizzie Moretti has long prized her independence. Lizzie’s been wandering around the world, working odd jobs to earn just enough money to keep on the go. Forced to flee an aggressive host in the middle of a rainy night while working on a farm in Tuscany, she seeks the shelter of a tool shed until she can figure out a plan. Alas, it happens to be on the estate of the wealthy Romeo family on the eve of the coveted grape harvest, when strangers like Lizzie are most unwelcome. She’s never put down roots. And he can’t seem to escape the roots that sometimes feel like they’re strangling him. They both walked away from family, but can they find salvation in the very family they’ve tried to run from? Red Carpet Romeo Look who’s grown up now… Valentina Romeo loved a romantic wedding, and couldn’t wait to serve as an attendant in her favorite cousin Prince Luca of Monaforte’s upcoming nuptials. She and Luca had reveled in childhood summers at the family estate on the Ligurian Sea. Many of her fondest memories were made there, along with one of her most humiliating, when Luca’s college roommate Parker shunned her brave declaration of love. Investment banker Parker Hornsby hadn’t been back to Monaforte since he was in college. Back then he’d spent a glorious summer enjoying idyllic days at his best friend Luca’s family beach home. The fun was marred only by Luca’s obtrusive younger cousin Valentina, who could barely mask her crush on Parker, forcing him to flatly cut her off before she got her hopes up. The last thing Parker wanted was to be accused of going after his friend’s jailbait cousin, even if she was about the sweetest fourteen-year old girl he’d ever met. But when Parker shows up in Monaforte, paired in Luca’s wedding with Valentina, all bets are off on whether he can restrain himself from the beautiful—and fully grown-up—heiress to the world-famous Romeo wine label, or whether he remains the nemesis she thinks he is.

And she and her falcon just landed a dream job: working at a vineyard in Tuscany keeping birds from having a feast with the grapes. Francesco Romeo is sick to death of things that eat his crop. As the brother tasked with eradicating these pesky marauders at the top producer of premier wines in the Chianti region of Tuscany, Francesco is enraged when he learns the vineyard next door has hired a falconer to scare away swarming flocks of starlings, and now the birds are instead happily feasting on the Romeo family’s predator-free grapes, and Francesco has to go toe-to-toe with the feisty falconer, who just happens to be a woman he’s already gone mouth-to-mouth with.

A Court Gesture


Book Description

Hard to get never felt so good… Prince Luca of Monaforte is a player. Or so the tabloids claim. Rarely is he seen without a gorgeous, tall, blonde celebrity on his arm, and never has he had to so much as lift a finger to woo any female within a fifty-mile radius of him. Until he meets Larkin Mallory, a journalist he encounters who is covering fashion week. Petite, blonde-haired Larkin Mallory would rather stick a toothpick in her eyeball than have to sit through an interview with the arrogant young prince from Monaforte, who clearly thinks he’s all that. But when her boss gives her the choice: interview him or be fired, she makes sure Luca is in for the most uncomfortable interview he’s ever had to suffer through. Too bad for Larkin that being as formidable as a medieval fortress only makes Luca want to win her to his side even more.

Hard to Get Lucky


Book Description

Not such a cutie patootie... Alyssa Heyward has held a powerful grudge against Josh “The Mad Tooter” Trumbull for the better part of her life. Not that obsessing over something that happened when you were a tween is a particularly helpful thing to do for your mental health. And not like she’s dwelt on it forever. In fact, she hadn’t considered it—or him—for a long, long time… Until he shows up at her door as the new general contractor set to do major renovations on her house. Which instantly resurrects all of those old feelings about the sleepover at her best friend’s house when she ever-so-reluctantly agreed to partake in her first (and last) game of spin-the-bottle. When the creepiest boy in the Fourth grade spun, and the bottle pointed toward Alyssa, she thought her life was over indeed. And when she stood as far away from him in the dark storage closet instead of submitting to an unwanted kiss from the boy everyone knew had eaten a fly in the cafeteria and whose propensity for, um, breaking wind in all the wrong places (not to mention belching like a bullfrog) were the hallmark of his personality, she hoped she’d dodged a bullet. Until Josh Trumbull exited the closet and told everyone that instead of kissing him, Alyssa had emitted a noxious fume in the closed space. Perhaps the high point of Josh Trumbull’s prank-filled childhood happened at a spin-the-bottle party, when the girl he fostered a wicked crush on refused to grant him that one little kiss, and instead treated him like a pariah when they were sequestered in the dark confines of the kissing closet. Quick on his feet with a rejoinder, Josh popped out of the dark room and told all his buddies that Alyssa had pooted in there, killing all romantic notions of a first kiss. He hadn’t given this moment a second thought for the rest of his life. Until now. When he rings the doorbell of the woman whose home he’s set to renovate and when she opens the door, her face falls, much like it did when that spinning bottle pointed straight at her nearly fifteen years earlier. Leaving him to wonder: does he have any chance of rebuilding a relationship with the woman who hates him most as he rebuilds her home?







Cabana Boy


Book Description

All men are not created equal…\ Fletcher Campbell thought he’d been hired by famous film producer Justine Gaynor to be her right-hand man, but quickly learns that she only wants him for how good he looks in a bathing suit—as evidenced by the frequent meetings poolside she insists he attend wearing only his Chubbies swim trunks, and where her hands always seem to find their way onto his naked flesh. He’s determined to prove he’s more than just a pretty face when he persuades her to premiere her latest film in his hometown of Bristol, Montana. Only he gets more than he bargains for when she makes him the laughingstock of the place he once called home. Cricket Ferguson has no need for men in her life. She’s perfectly happy running the little French patisserie she started upon returning home to Bristol after a stint in pastry school in Paris and working at bakeries on the East Coast. Her shop keeps her plenty busy and besides, who’s got time for men who are only going to break your heart? Certainly not Cricket. That is, until the boy she wanted to marry shows back up in town on the arm of some famous Hollywood type, flaunting his fame and fortune and reminding her of the pain he caused when he went away all those years ago.
