As Queen Victoria tries to match her grandchildren with powerful marriages across Europe, matters of the court and matters of the heart collide for three princesses as they close in on the end of their marriage seasons. Exiled French princess Helene d'Orleans had no choice but to break it off with Prince Eddy—but that doesn't mean she doesn't have a broken heart. And now her parents have their sights on another prince for her...but his heart is already taken.

In the last glittering decade of European empires, courts, and kings, three young women are on a collision course with history—and with each other.

Die Krone hat Vorrang. Immer. Prinzessin Beatrice ist Thronerbin der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika, und gewohnt, immer im Rampenlicht zu stehen. Doch bei der Frage, wen sie heiraten möchte, hat sie das Gefühl, in zwei Teile gespalten zu sein. Der Teil, der sein gesamtes Dasein in den Dienst der Krone stellt und eine standesgemäße Ehe mit dem Adligen Theodore anstrebt, und der menschliche Teil, in dem es die heimlichen Momente mit ihrem Bodyguard Connor gibt - ihrer wahren Liebe. Als Beatrices Vater im Sterben liegt, muss Beatrice sich entscheiden: Gibt sie der Krone oder ihren Gefühlen den Vorrang.

Beatrice wurde als Thronerbin geboren, jetzt ist sie Amerikas erste Königin. Stets wurde sie ermahnt, der Krone zu gehorchen und die Tradition zu wahren. Doch der Preis, den dieses Schicksal einfordert, ist hoch. Ihre Schwester Samantha hingegen hätte die Bürde des Throns gerne auf sich genommen, um nicht ein Leben lang in Beatrices Schatten zu stehen. Gebrochene Herzen und Intrigen gilt es zu überstehen, bis Beatrice einsieht: Sie muss der Krone nicht gehorchen, sie ist die Krone. Und die Macht, ein neues Zeitalter zu beginnen, liegt in ihren Händen.

El poder es embriagador, como el primer amor puede dejarte sin aliento. Desde su nacimiento, la princesa Beatrice lo posee. La princesa Samantha nació con menos. Algunos, como Nina González, se sienten atraídos por él. Otros se abrirán camino para conseguirlo. Sí, estamos pensando en tí, Daphne Deighton. Mientras América intenta acostumbrarse a ver a una mujer en el trono... Beatrice lidia con todo lo que perdió cuando ganó la corona; Samantha está ocupada haciendo honor a su fama de princesa fiestera.

HRH Princess Samantha has always been a royal rebel. She's the spare not the heir, so no one minds too much who she dates or how hard she parties. It helps that her sister, Princess Beatrice, is literally perfect. She's demure, sweet and beautiful, and she knows that the crown always comes first - no matter what her heart might really want. But they're not the only ones with their eye on the throne. Daphne Deighton might be 'newly noble' but she won Prince Jefferson's heart once, and she'll do anything to get back into the court's favour - and his bed.

The third book in the bestselling American Royals series is here, and a meeting of monarchs will test everyone's loyalty to the crown…and their own hearts. Beatrice is queen, and for the American royal family, everything is about to change.

When America won the Revolutionary War, its people offered General George Washington a crown. Two and a half centuries later, the House of Washington still sits on the throne. Like most royal families, the Washingtons have an heir and a spare. A future monarch and a backup battery. Each child knows exactly what is expected of them. But these aren't just any royals. They're American.

Beatrice Washington now rules America as its first ever queen, but her family is more concerned about rushing through her arranged marriage to a man she barely knows. Meanwhile, Princess Samantha is under more scrutiny than ever before - and she still longs to be with her sister's fiancee. Nina Gonzalez is also tangled up with someone she never expected to be. Luckily for Daphne Deighton, Prince Jeff's grief for his father makes him a prime target for her attentions. As the royal wedding of the century creeps ever closer, will these four young women get what they want?

Power is intoxicating. Like first love, it can leave you breathless. Princess Beatrice was born with it. Princess Samantha was born with less. Some, like Nina Gonzalez, are pulled into it. And a few will claw their way in. Ahem, we're looking at you Daphne Deighton. As America adjusts to the idea of a queen on the throne, Beatrice grapples with everything she lost when she gained the ultimate crown. Samantha is busy living up to her "party princess" persona...and maybe adding a party prince by her side.

America's royal family is in shambles. Queen Beatrice is in a coma and Princess Samantha has gone missing—from the look of things, she ran away with her boyfriend, Lord Marshall Davis. Which means that Prince Jefferson is currently on the throne. For some in America, it's exactly what they wanted: a King ruling the country. And for Daphne Deighton, who has tricked Jefferson into dating her again, it's the ultimate dream come true. Surely this is all just temporary. Won’t Beatrice wake up and reclaim her rightful place?
