A Secret Heir To Secure His Throne - Caitlin Crews
Reclaiming his royal future with the consequence of his past!
Paris Apollo was unwillingly crowned King when his parents were murdered. Grief-stricken, he distanced himself from his people, intent on planning his revenge. Now he’s discovered a shocking secret: he has a son! A legitimate heir would mean a triumphant return to power — if Madelyn Jones will marry him...
No longer wide-eyed and innocent, Madelyn refuses to be a pawn in Paris Apollo’s royal game — but each electrifying moment in his presence reminds her of their first whirlwind affair. Dare she risk her heart again as his queen?

A seasoned cop becomes the target of a killer. And so does the woman he’s falling for.
Detective Lieutenant Thomas Watson had been off Air Force active duty so long, he thought he was safe. Until a gunman crashes his daughter’s wedding, reawakening the warrior inside him. He hires nurse Jane Boyle to care for his injured father so he can focus on bringing the gunman to justice. While Jane is the ideal caretaker, her dark past has landed her in witness protection. And the more she’s embraced by this family of cops, the more danger she’s in. For a shadow from Thomas’s own past might be willing to lend Jane’s stalker a helping hand...

Wedding planner Becky English has given up on her own fairy-tale, throwing herself into making it come true for others.
