The Latte Princess

Betty Montclair's life is simple: make coffee, survive her terrible boss, finish community college. Then two security agents walk into her café and inform her she's actually Princess Bettina of Valdoria—kidnapped as a toddler and presumed dead for twenty years. Now a scheming grandmother needs Betty to marry a prince she's never met to secure a military alliance against Russian aggression. Six months of fake smiles and separate bedrooms, and she can go back to her real life. Simple enough. There's just one problem: the charming stable hand who's been teaching her to ride, making her laugh, and awakening feelings she definitely shouldn't have? He is Prince Archibald. And he's been lying to her face since the moment they met. Archie knows he should have told her the truth. But Betty was the first person in years who saw him as more than a crown, and he couldn't resist falling for the sharp-tongued American who thanks servants, argues with protocol instructors, and makes the best coffee he's ever tasted. When sabotage threatens Betty's safety and dark secrets emerge about the forces working against their marriage, they'll have to decide: Is their connection real enough to fight for? Or was it all just a royal performance? With thrones, treaties, and their hearts on the line, Betty and Archie must choose between duty and desire—and discover that sometimes the biggest risk is letting yourself fall. A sizzling royal romance about finding your place, finding your voice, and finding love where you least expect it.
