The Throne

You know what you can have when you're a Prince? Anything you want—anyone you want. Except her.

Charlotte Carlisle is the only woman I've ever loved and never touched—because lusting after your brother's future queen is frowned upon. It never mattered that their betrothal was a political move made by our parents, that they didn't love each other—she was completely off limits to everything but my constant fantasies. And I've spent the last decade pushing her away, desperate to save my sanity.

Now that my brother abdicated the throne for his true love and left me holding the crown, the one woman I've always wanted is the same person enlisted to help me choose my future Queen.

Thirty-six gorgeous debutantes are vying for the position, but Charlotte's it. The only woman I'll accept, and the only woman who refuses the offer. Constantly.

I've got four weeks to marry to solidify my claim to the throne, or my country will descend into chaos. The anti-monarchists are waiting for me to slip, and with over a thousand years of Wyndham tradition running through my veins, I can't afford to fail.

But to win Charlotte, I've got to give her the one thing she's never had: A choice. And her decision could burn us all.

Contains mature themes.
