Royal Gentleman

Mon, 18 Nov 2019 13:18:37 +0200

My crown was plastic.
His was the real deal—jewels and all.
I, Kerris Von Roy, lived among royalty.
Until I didn't.
Crown Prince of Sardones, Ander Nicholas Gabriel Camran was my childhood best friend.
Until he wasn't.
Ten years later, I have the opportunity of a lifetime. To photograph and chronicle the Royal Family of Sardones' reinstallation.
To capture history.
Nicholas was the boy who played hide-and-seek with me inside the palace walls. The pre-teen who taught me how to play the piano. The teen who snuck me into the kitchen at midnight for ice cream sundaes.
My first crush. My first kiss.
Now, he's about to become king. Instead of childhood games, he wants me kneeling, submitting myself to his rule in and out of the bedroom.
Nicholas rules a kingdom—my body and soul.
But I can never be fully his. Let alone his Queen.

Perfectly Scripted

Thu, 12 Nov 2015 13:53:37 +0200

"With each passing day I was falling deeper into his world."

I’d never believed in fate until the moment I kissed Ronan Connolly. And even though it could have been my emotional undoing, there was nothing I could do to stop the whirlwind of excitement and thrilling days that followed.

Pushing me. Pulling me. Throwing me deeper and deeper into him. Into us.

We’d spent a week secluded inside the four walls of the posh York Hotel Penthouse sharing our deepest secrets and engaging in our most primal desires. The longer I stayed, the further I fell.

There was no turning back, and I was left with only one realization – that he was the one for me.

Back in the real world, Ronan and I had settled into our new life together as a couple. We were done overcoming jealous exes and lingering scars. But, when reminders from the past come flooding back, new secrets are revealed, shattering the trust we worked so hard to achieve.

Fate brought us together.

Passion ignited our souls.

Love gripped our hearts.

That same explosive combination perfectly conspired to tear us apart.

Perfectly Scripted is the dramatic conclusion to Ronan and Holliday’s steamy love story that began in unScripted.

Unscripted

His gaze on me was intense, I couldn’t look away. I felt as if I was revealing my entire soul to him in this moment.

The range of emotions I had experienced with Ronan felt like a topsy-turvy spinning roller coaster. Suddenly I was awake for the first time in what felt like years. Every fiber of my being was filled with heated desire, passion, lust and fear, and all I wanted was more… more of everything, more of him. How had I just lived these past few years only going through the motions? But, as glorious as all of this was, was I kidding myself? Could it be real? Or just a moment in time - a few days of thrilling and scary excitement rolled into one? The moment before you hit that first big drop on your favorite coaster, you fall, and then it's over.

This isn’t your typical Hollywood fairy tale where the typecast ordinary girl next door meets the famous handsome actor and they fall in love. Despite the emotional and physical scars that serve as reminders of Holliday Prescott’s past, she has evolved into a strong young woman. Ronan Connolly has loved and lost, but he’s never been in love. The weight of Hollywood’s expectations and the scripted games people play have left him bruised but not broken.

He's always followed everyone else's script and she wrote her own. That was until fate swept in with other plans.
