While on vacation in the south of France, aspiring chef Oliver Reed unwittingly thwarts an assassination attempt on the mysterious Max-and finds himself embroiled in courtly intrigue, stately theft, and a whirlwind romance. A brief holiday fling with the sweet young American isn't enough for Maximilian IX Lukas, crown prince of the Kingdom of Noricia. He whisks Oliver-and the entire Reed-Ruíz family-to a castle in the Alps. But picking up where they left off won't be easy while contending with Max's elitist relatives, dealing with the lady he's supposed to marry, and staying one step ahead of the killers still pursuing him. Add to that Max's flexible relationship with the truth, and Oliver isn't so sure being with a real-life prince is a dream come true.

Susan Laine, an award-winning, multipublished author of LGBTQ erotic romance and a Finnish native, was raised by the best mother in the world, who told her daughter time and again that she could be whatever she wanted to be. The spark for serious writing and publishing kindled when Susan discovered the gay erotic romance genre. Her book, Monsters Under the Bed, won the 2014 Rainbow Award for Best Gay Paranormal Romance.
Anthropology is Susan's formal education, and she could have been happy as an eternal student. But she's written stories since she was a kid, and her long-term goal is still to become a full-time writer. Susan enjoys hanging out with her sister, two nieces, and friends in movie theaters, libraries, bookstores, and parks. Her favorite pastimes include singing along (badly) to the latest pop songs, watching action flicks, doing the dishes, and sleeping till noon, while a few of her dislikes are sweating, hot and too-bright summer days, tobacco smoke, purposeful prejudice and hate speech.
