Fit for a Queen is the first book in the Royal Scandals: San Rimini series, but can be read as a standalone novel (no cliffhangers!) If you haven't tried this series, now is the perfect time. If you've already read Fit for a Queen, tell a friend!

 

Here’s the back-of-the-book info to whet your appetite:


She holds the secrets of a queen. He’s been hired to watch her.

Daniela D’Ambrosio is the most trusted employee of Sarcaccia’s Queen Fabrizia, managing the queen’s schedule and ensuring she never makes a misstep in public. But when Fabrizia sends Daniela to organize the belongings of San Rimini’s late queen for a charity auction, Daniela finds a locked closet full of treasure, a suspicious king, and an attractive handyman who seems strangely familiar.

Following a harrowing stint in the military, Royce Dekker now runs his own security firm in San Rimini. When he goes undercover to safeguard the late queen’s possessions, Royce learns that the woman organizing the auction project is none other than Daniela D’Ambrosio, the stunning beauty who’s fueled his late-night fantasies ever since their stolen night under the stars.

When Daniela recognizes Royce, she realizes there is more to the palace job than she was told. But can she trust the sexy man standing guard over her as she works? Or will Royce discover that Daniela also has secrets to uncover?

Recent FAQs

While my site has a Frequently Asked Questions page, I've received some repeat questions about my books via email, which gives me a great excuse to do a blog post. 

If you have a question, feel free to contact me anytime. I am always happy to answer reader email.

👑👑👑

Q: What is the order of the Royal Scandals series? Are there more books planned?

 

A: To date, there are six full-length novels and three Christmas novellas in the series. Each is designed to stand alone, as there are no cliffhangers from one book to the next. However, many readers prefer to enjoy the stories in order since the series follows family members over the span of several years. The order is:

 

Christmas With a Prince (novella)

Scandal With a Prince

Honeymoon With a Prince

Christmas on the Royal Yacht (novella)

Slow Tango With a Prince

The Royal Bastard

Christmas With a Palace Thief (novella) 

The Wicked Prince

 One Man’s Princess

 

More Royal Scandals books are in the works. Once I have release dates, I’ll announce it on my site and in my newsletter.

 

The related Royal Scandals: San Rimini series is complete with six titles. In order, they are:

 

Fit for a Queen

Going to the Castle

The Prince’s Tutor

👑👑👑

 

Q: I plan to read both the Royal Scandals and the Royal Scandals: San Rimini series, but should I read one series before the other?

 

A:  The two series run in parallel, with only slight overlap, so reading one won’t spoil the other. Whichever fires your interest at the moment is the one to read first.

 

👑👑👑

 

Q: Which book has the background of King Carlo and Queen Fabrizia’s relationship?

 

A: While there are bits sprinkled throughout the Royal Scandals series, the Big Story behind Carlo and Fabrizia’s early years is covered in The Royal Bastard, the fourth full-length novel in the series.

 

 

👑👑👑


 

Q: I loved The Bowen Bride. Will there be more books in the series? Do you know when?
