So, when my grandfather says it's time to settle down, I waste no time plotting a way to remain single. The plan? Make my fiancée loathe me. I'll go out of my way to prove to Elizabeth how ill-suited we are. I'm all about adventure and bold new plans for my country, and Lizzy’s the quintessential good girl. Sweet. Polished. Distractingly cute and clever. Which I admit, makes Miss Wrong harder to resist. Nothing turns me on like a big sexy brain. But when a family emergency brings us closer than ever before, I uncover the secret my bride-to-be has been hiding. And damn…looks like I’ve finally met my match. Yep, I’ve gone and fallen in love with the one woman I’ve tried like hell to push away. My new plan? Fight for her like I’ve never fought before. Previously titled Royal Package. Same fun story, just with a fresh title and cover makeover. The RUGGED & ROYAL Series: - The Playboy Prince - The Grumpy Prince - The Bossy Prince “[This] royal prince will melt your heart and make your toes curl with that mouth of his.” — Crystal’s Book World, Goodreads reviewer. “Loveable, quirky characters…crazy, twisty, surprising storyline…this book owned me, heart cockles, funny bone and all.” — BookAddict, Amazon reviewer “An unputdownable romance that stole my heart, gave me allllll the feels, and left me with one wicked hangover.” — Renee Entress’s Blog less

The Royal Package is a legend in its own time, a pleasure-giving national treasure I’m far too generous to keep to myself.

But I have one rule: No good girls.
And they don’t get much nicer than sugar-and-spice Princess Elizabeth.

You’d think a woman who designs lingerie would be sexy and fun.

You would be wrong. My fiancée is a dreary little mouse, and I have no doubt we’ll make each other miserable if we go through with our arranged marriage... moreThe Royal Package is a legend in its own time, a pleasure-giving national treasure I’m far too generous to keep to myself.

You would be wrong. My fiancée is a dreary little mouse, and I have no doubt we’ll make each other miserable if we go through with our arranged marriage.

But I can’t dishonor my grandfather’s dying wish.

 Which leaves me one choice—make my sweet fiancée so miserable during our engagement festivities that she calls it quits.

Operation Prince Charmless will get her out of my hair. And then I'm back to Sexy Single Ruler business as usual.

Or that’s the plan… 

But my fiancée is feistier than I remembered. Sexier, too. And she loves spur-of-the-moment adventures as much as I do. And did I mention that she hates my guts?

Looks like the Royal Package and I are in for more than we bargained for… less

Of my brothers, I’m the royal no one messes with. More intense than princely. The gruffest grouch in all the land. But not with her. Lizzy…gets to me. Always has, probably always will. Too adorably different for her own good, she brings out a protective side of me I can’t seem to temper. Especially when she puts everyone else’s dreams before her own. Now I hear she’s risking her health for her twin, with the reasoning that some family curse is going to cut her life short anyway... moreOf my brothers, I’m the royal no one messes with.

She’s the only one who makes me crack a smile, makes me believe love isn’t only for less hardened men like my brothers. And I’ll be damned if I’m going to lose her.
