Scarlett Jane

When Lady Zoey is called for by her long lost father, Duke Arden, she reluctantly agrees to see him. Only when she arrives in Caines does she find out that he intends to marry her off. In an attempt to mend fences with King Henry, Zoey ends up engaged to Crown Prince Aaron Condor.

Duke James Beaumont comes to Caines to propose to childhood sweetheart, Lady Emily Maine. Three months later however, a compromising photograph lands Aaron and Emily in a scandal. James wants revenge, and Zoey wants to give her fiance a second chance.

When the jilted lovers meet on the streets of Caines, James proposes to Zoey. What began as an innocent chance meeting, ends in an accidental marriage.

Now what? Zoey is both the future crown princess and the woman Aaron loves. And James knows better than to think her being his wife changes any of that...

The girl who loved two princes

　　She wasn't saying anything, wasn't moving. She just kept staring at him like he was a liar, like he had to be. He didn't want to see that look anymore, so he kissed her. His mouth was rough and angry, passionate in ways she had yet to experience it. He pulled off his jacket and picked her up as it fell to the floor.


　　"This is what you want, right?" he asked, his voice cold and rigid. "This is the plan, right? Let's not wait then. Let's just get it over with, like you said."


　　He carried her over to the bed and laid her down on it gently. He was on top of her, all over her. Despite the angry kisses and the way he talked to her, every other thing he did was heartbreakingly cautious. It wasn't how he was touching her or even that he was touching her. It was the anger and sadness in his eyes as he did it. She just couldn't watch him like this, couldn't not say it back.
