He Who Wears the Crown (Tales of Crowneship #1)

Living isolated for years behind walls of glass and steel, Carrick Logan is known as Crowneship Cove’s most enigmatic entrepreneur. A prince of his own making, Carrick fully embraces the crown that comes with prestige and power, and though he may be incapable of walking the streets of his beloved city, he will pay any price to maintain the image he has so carefully crafted for his subjects.

For you see, unlike the other self-made royals of Crowneship Cove, Carrick’s mask isn’t worn solely for the benefit of business. Carrick wears the mask to simply survive.

Then, the beautiful Isabelle Tyme enters his life. Gentle. Inquisitive. Enchanting.

Everything about Isabelle is the purest form of magic. Though Carrick fights it, the spell she weaves around his heart offers a peace which is utterly priceless.

But, the demons and darkness that follow Carrick are never far away. Just as he believes he may have escaped them at long last, they shroud him again, whispering from the depths that Carrick is but a beast, and a beast is not worthy of love. A beast cannot be tamed. A beast cannot be saved.

In a world where fairy tale endings go to the highest bidder, can Isabelle save Carrick, or is Carrick doomed to wear the crown of the beast forever?
