My family are fighting over who's the next Duke of Fairfax. The rules say it's me-if I'm married. It's not a trade-off worth making. I could never limit myself to just one woman. Or so I thought until my world is turned upside down. Now, the only way I can save the empire I built is to inherit the title I've never wanted-so I need a wife. To take my mind off business I need a night that's all pleasure. I need to bury myself in a stranger. The skim of Scarlett King's hair over my body as she bends over . . . The scrape of her nails across my chest as she screams my name . . . The bite of her teeth on my shoulder just as we both reach the edge . . . It all helps me forget. I just didn't bargain on finding my one-night stand across the boardroom table the next day. Scarlett's making a business proposal. I've got more interest in a (fake) marriage proposal. A sexy, standalone romance. Other stand-alone books in this series. They can be read in any order. Book 1. King of Wall Street (Max and Harper) Book 2. Duke of Manhattan (Ryder & Scarlett) Book 3.

Book Description
In this modern Parisian fairytale, a Beastly Prince is out to conquer a defiant Beauty. But the only way for him to win is unconditional surrender. Mary Chase can handle anything. Working as a manager/fixer/circus ringmaster for Rising Starr Talent Agency's most difficult clients has given her an extensive education in problem solving. Stolen tour bus? Activate the LoJack. Overly intrusive paparazzi? Set the superfans on them. Find a lynx roaming a hotel room? Call animal control and down a shot of tequila. But when Mary's next client turns out to be her boss's godson, the Wild Prince, her hard earned skills are pushed to the limit. Dominic Prince knows what the world thinks of him-that he's wild, that he's reckless, that he's got a uncontrollable temper. He also knows better than to care. But when coming to his future sister-in-law's defense lands him in trouble with both the press and the police, suddenly everyone expects him to change. Dominic is prepared to put up with the babysitter his family have saddled him with. But if they think she's going to tame him, they have another thing coming. Sparks fly when the woman who can handle any problem meets the man who refuses to be solved and their chemistry surprises both of them. Mary finds in Dominic a man capable of climbing her walls. And Dominic has finally met a woman who can beat him at his own game. But as their relationship deepens, their time together begins to run out. Will Dominic be able to convince Mary they're meant to be more than temporary? Or will she be gone before the last mid-winter rose petal falls? Author's Note: Enemies-to-lovers has always be one of my favorite romance tropes. So I was looking forward to tackling it within the Prince family. Plus adding in all my favorite Beauty and the Beast elements: a Parisian house covered with roses, a gorgeous gold dress, a couple of quirky caretakers, and best of all, a seriously rocking library. When I planned this series, Dominic was supposed to wait his turn until book five or six. But the pushy Prince shoved his way to the front of the line. His and Mary's story just ran away with me. I hope they run away with you too.

Book Description
In this modern New York fairytale, a Quiet Prince sets out to save his long-lost love from the schemes of an evil ex. But it will take more than true love's way overdue kiss to break this social media curse. Stella Knight is a talented programmer, a brilliant video game designer, and has a lifelong habit of telling powerful people where they can stick it. This time, it's her lying, duplicitous, code-stealing boyfriend, Mal... who also happens to be her boss. Now she's out of a job, a home, and any chance of future employment as rumors that she's the thief spread through the gaming community. When her old friend Ashton Prince makes her an offer, Stella is desperate enough to take a job from the first love she never got over. Ashton Prince is the steady brother in the Prince family. He runs a cybersecurity company, never takes unnecessary risks, and, according to his brothers, is boringly predictable. He's also spent the last fifteen years quietly, deeply, and hopelessly in love with his best friend from high school. When he discovers she needs help, sees a way to fill a void in his company, and have her back in her life-it's a temptation he doesn't want to resist. But working together comes with its own set of challenges. Stella is determined to prove her critics wrong, and Ash knows her situation is too precarious to tell her how he truly feels. But the more time they spend together, the hotter the torches they're both carrying burn. To rise above the thorny limits set by their shared past, Ash and Stella must face what they really mean to each other. Will their love set them free or will it burn everything they've both built to the ground?

Book Description
THE PRINCE OF PARK AVENUE FINALLY MEETS HIS MATCH IN A FEISTY MANHATTAN PRINCESS. I've made every one of my billions of dollars myself-I'm calculating, astute and the best at what I do. It takes drive and dedication to build what I have. And it leaves no time for love or girlfriends or relationships. But don't get me wrong, I'm not a monk. I understand the attention and focus it takes to seduce a beautiful woman. They're the same skills I use to close business deals. But one night is where it begins and ends. I'm not the guy who sends flowers. I'm not the guy who calls the next day. Or so I thought before an impatient, smart-talking, beyond beautiful heiress bursts into my world. When Grace Astor rolls her eyes at me-I want to hold her against me and show her what she's been missing. When she makes a joke at my expense-I want to silence her sassy mouth with my tongue. And when she leaves straight after we f*ck with barely a goodbye-it makes me want to pin her down and remind her of the three orgasms she just had. She might be a princess but I'm going to show her who rules in this Park Avenue bedroom. A sexy, standalone, contemporary romance.

Book Description
Featuring a foreword by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. When Prince wanted to document his One Nite Alone tour in 2002, he turned to Afshin Shahidi. Again in 2004, he went along on Prince’s record breaking Musicology Tour. Afshin met Prince in 1989 and became his cinematographer and later his photographer. He was the photographer closest to Prince for the last fifteen years of Prince’s life. Afshin is the only photographer to shoot the legendary 3121 private parties in Los Angeles that became the most sought after invitations in Hollywood. Prince: A Private View compiles his work into a journey through Prince's extraordinary life. With many never-before-seen photos, this is the ultimate collection of – some intimate, some candid, some in concert – shots of Prince, but all are carefully directed in the artist-as-art style that we associate with him. Deep photo captions are brief, but complete stories about Prince's life at that moment - some are incisive, others are personal and even funny.

Book Description
Completing J. North Conway’s widely acclaimed trilogy of Gilded Age New York City Crime—following King of Heists and The Big Policeman—Bag of Bones combines the era’s affluence, decadence, and corruption with a gruesome deed fit for the tabloids of today. In 1878, the body of multi-millionaire A. T. Stewart was stolen from St. Mark’s Churchyard. The ghoulish crime, the chase for the culprits, the years-long ransom negotiations, and the demise of the Stewart retail empire fed a media frenzy. When the widow Stewart eventually exchanged $20,000 for a burlap bag of bones on a country road, not everyone was convinced that the remains were truly those of “The Merchant Prince of Manhattan,” the department store pioneer who had risen from the flood of Irish immigration to a place alongside names like Astor, Vanderbilt, and Rockefeller. As Bag of Bones details the futile tactics used by police to identify the grave robbers, it also unveils the villainy of Judge Henry Hilton, the Stewart family advisor who not only interfered in the case repeatedly but also dismantled a once-great business empire . . . all the while profiting quite nicely. By the end of this fascinating slice of history, one is left to wonder who displayed the greater evil: the grave robbers or Judge Hilton.
