A gruff prince in need of a wifeA commoner impersonating a princessAnd a bridal competition gone terribly awry… GabrielI'm the crown prince of Villroy, heir to a kingdom, bound by duty to marry and produce an heir.I expected a quiet arrangement through royal channels, instead I got a palace full of women vying for my hand. And how do they "win" this barbaric game set up by my crafty mother? By figuring out how to save the kingdom's faltering economy through a series of challenges. This undignified circus is beneath a man of my stature! Proof being that a saucy, ill-mannered woman wearing body-hugging clothes is in the lead. I could never love someone like that, let alone marry her. AnnaThe plan sounded simple.I pose as my friend, pick up her inheritance, and return with the cash to keep her out of jail. (Apparently, being a princess in hiding is no excuse for identity theft.) So, yeah, I'm not exactly royal. I'm an orphan, a self-made woman, and proud of it. Suddenly I'm in a battle royale with a bunch of crazy competitive women for "riches beyond our dreams." I'm in a time crunch, which means I need to win this competition fast. Only, that means winning over the judge; the smoldering hot grim-faced Gabriel. And now I find myself wanting to compete for more than just the money. But could a royal prince ever fall for a commoner like me?

A British bad boy and a runaway princess bride collide for a tempting time…JacksonBeing a rock god isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's become a soulless grind. Which is why I'm now on my mate's houseboat, far away from the spotlight, hoping to find my way back to the music. Yeah. Not gonna happen. I've just discovered a stowaway on board, and I can't believe who she is. A bloody princess? And the prim little woman won't leave the boat, so I make an offer to scare her off-a no-strings fling. Only she says yes. I say no, and she promptly locks herself in my bedroom. I swear I'm dropping her off at the next port. She's trouble wrapped in a pretty virginal package, and I know I shouldn't touch. EmmaI'm a runaway bride trying to make a clean escape. But when Jackson Walker discovers me hiding on his boat-after I get over the shock of stumbling upon a rock star's hideaway-I immediately know he's exactly what I need. He's wild, rough around the edges, perfect. My family would never approve. The press would skewer us. I still want him. He's the antidote to my tightly prescribed life. But can he ever see past my title to the woman I long to be?

A fake fiancé, friends-to-lovers romcom with a prince!AliceFirst thing you should know about me-I'm on my honeymoon on Villroy Island without my groom, which was a no-brainer given how my ex-fiancé decided to "accidentally" fall in love with my best friend. I don't want to talk about it. Second thing: I'm a romance author on a generously extended deadline, and I've sworn to use this time away productively. So far my editor has hated all of my ideas featuring the crushing of men. Romance is dead within my blackened heart. I'm about to admit defeat when a prince with an image problem falls into my lap. And for some crazy reason, it's decided that me posing as his fiancée would be a good idea. The last thing I want is to actually be committed to someone, but a fake engagement may make this next book write itself. LucasI enjoy being the world's most eligible royal bachelor (the internet voted and I won), but that's not all I am. I want to contribute to the kingdom, be part of the legacy. I should be the CEO of our new business venture, but my oldest brother, Gabriel, the king, blocks me at every turn, convinced I'm too flighty. So when Gabriel's wife, Anna, the unconventional queen, offers me a chance to prove myself with the bankers, and the only catch is bringing along a fake fiancée, I reluctantly agree. The ends justify the means, and Alice needs the fake engagement to inspire her story. I never expected to fall. Yet here I am, hell-bent on convincing a woman afraid to get involved that she belongs with me.

A virgin, a diehard bachelor, and a kingdom hanging in the balance!PollyI'm a modern twenty-three-year-old princess bound by rules more suited to medieval times. My father's declining health means I will soon be queen, but, as a woman, I will not be allowed to rule alone. I can only claim my birthright by marrying the man chosen for me-a business tycoon useful to our kingdom. My parents are unbending. If I do not comply, my younger cousin will take my place simply because he's a man. I'm the one who must bend, or walk away and lose everything-my family, my birthright, my island home. I never met a man tempting enough to risk a kingdom…and then I meet him. OscarI'm the good-looking one. If you need to pick me out of the middle of the Rourke clan, that's how you do it. Does it bother me that nothing is expected of the fourth-born son other than to flash my devastatingly handsome smile for the press? Maybe. Would I like to be needed even just by one person who sees me as the key to something important? Yes. And then I meet her. Only lightning struck for the wrong woman. She's on Villroy for a short time before she must return home and marry the man her parents have chosen. If she doesn't, she loses her birthright. If I truly care for Polly, I'll walk away. But do I have the strength to resist the most perfect woman I've ever met?

They made a pact to marry when they're twenty-five…AdrianI'm a gentleman and a card shark, so taking the lead on the new upscale casino on Villroy is a natural fit. I'm proud to run the place, especially given our flagging economy. Except, after a month in operation, it's been proving to be more than one prince can handle. I need a right-hand man (or woman) to make this operation a success, and hundreds of jobs are counting on me. And then my twin, Silvia, gets in touch about Sara, a girl we were close to as children when her family summered in Villroy. Ironically, at twelve, we swore a solemn vow to marry when we were twenty-five. We're now twenty-five. But that's not why Silvia contacted me. Turns out that Sara, like me, loves poker, but now she's in trouble, running a poker game in New York and upping the pot high enough to attract the wealthy underbelly of the city. Of course, I ride to the rescue with the perfect solution-a job, working for me. Except the stubborn woman won't stop her game, won't leave New York, and won't leave her sister, who's all grown up. Now I find myself wanting her for more than just business, unable to leave her in such a dangerous situation. But my kingdom is counting on me to make the casino a success. Something's got to give.

An enemies-to-lovers, second chance romcom with a secret prince!DylanI'm the crown prince of Villroy, but instead of taking the king's throne like I should have, my father got us all exiled.

It's an opportunity to build my real estate empire and make something of myself. All I need is an experienced person to help take it to the next level. And then the girl who grew up next door to me-all woman now-shows up with just the business experience I need. Too bad Ariana Bianchi hates me. I used to think it was undeserved-fallout from our families' longtime feud-but there was this one time… ArianaI'm newly divorced and crashing at my parents' house until I can get my life on track for my ultimate goal of having a baby with the help of a sperm bank. It's the reason for my divorce-he didn't want kids-and at thirty-one the clock is ticking. So when the gorgeous pig of a man, Dylan Rourke, shows up at my parents' house to ask me to work as a consultant for his company, I see an opportunity. He wants something from me? Yeah, well, I want something in return, too. Only Dylan makes this way more complicated than it needs to be.

An unexpected sexy roommate in close quarters...what could go wrong?JosieI'm an actress between gigs, crashing on the couch at my cousin's old place. I won't be here forever. I just filmed a pilot and, if the show gets picked up, I'm off to LA for my dream job. Only I never expected my new roommate would be the grouchiest man on earth. It almost cancels out his sexy rugged good looks. Almost. SeanThe last thing I need is a woman moving into the house I'm renovating on the side. First of all, I live here. Second, I'm running on fumes trying to juggle my day job too. I don't have time for her irritating cheer or her distractingly cute little body. I've got work to do. And then Josie decides to "help" me renovate, which has the aggravating effect of making more work for me. I'm losing my damn mind. Yet, somehow, I can't stop looking at her.

A humorous forbidden romance!BeccaThat one-night stand with Hot Builder Guy was not in the plan. Completely unlike me but, in a moment of weakness, I was drawn in by his piercing blue eyes, his charming smile, and his spectacularly muscled everything. It was a mistake. Only the next day he wants my number and I start thinking maybe this thing has potential. Maybe it wasn't a mistake. And then I see him again in the worst possible place and realize this can never work. There are rules about this-for good reason-and I don't dare cross the line. Connor Rourke is off-limits. I don't know how much longer I can resist temptation.

A slow burn friends-to-lovers romance!ChloeFriends with benefits isn't a real thing. Nope. Once you cross the line, that friendship is over. Ask me how I know. So I'm keeping my head down, focused on getting into medical school and ultimately working to find the cure for cancer. I want my life to mean something, to give back something significant to the world. Guys are a distraction I can't afford. BrendanFrom the moment I met Chloe Travers, a protective streak I never knew I had took over. Despite my raging lust, I kept her at arm's length. We have a family connection, which means casually hooking up is out. Too much potential fallout and awkward future encounters. And then she moves in next door for the summer. Awkward? More like the ultimate test of my willpower. We're spending every spare moment together as friends, and it's driving me insane. I want to cross that line, but what if I make a move and lose her?

Beauty meets Beast in a case of mistaken identity, a fake relationship, and very real chemistry…HarperEveryone thinks I'm tough as nails because I used to play a CEO on TV. I'm not.
