Book Description
I needed a job and a place to live, but after getting snowed in with an older oil tycoon I have to find a way to cool off first. From Marie Johnston comes an age gap, snowed-in with a dash of workplace romance. I got laid off and kicked out of the house I was sharing with my ex—on the same day. Faced with moving home and being put back in charge of my five siblings, I jump at a mysterious job interview. The only catch is that I hitch a ride with a local oil tycoon…on his private jet. Gentry King is also the single dad of the guy I’m interviewing with. Dads aren’t supposed to be that sexy in a suit, ooze power, or make me suddenly desire older men. All I have to do is get through one meeting in the middle of nowhere and then I can go my own way. Only a snow storm strands us in a small town. Gentry and I find the last hotel room available, and I’m so relieved when we get into the room I almost don’t freeze solid at the sight of one bed. I don’t need to risk my chances by sleeping with Gentry, but once I wake up next to him I don’t have a snowball’s chance in a fire pit of resisting. King's Crown is a standalone novel in the Oil Kings series.

They pour lots of oily sauces on to Berkley's head in order to make the crown slide off - but it won't move. Next, he tries Her Majesty's Salon. The stylist thinks lots of shampoo and bubbles will shift it, but again, the crown doesn't budge. Berkley then visits Buckingham Garage and even the Queen's Royal Guards have a go, but whatever they try - the crown stays put. No crown means no coronation.Realising he has no choice, Berkley decides to tell the truth and makes his way back to Prince Chuck at the Palace.
