She's not taking too well to a liquid diet. Every night she rises with a horrible craving for blood. But what really bites (besides waking up in the morgue dressed in a pink suit and cheap shoes courtesy of her stepmother) is that she can't seem to stay dead. Then, to top things off, she's killed in a car accident. It'a been a helluva week for Betsy Taylor. Of course, it involves getting very, very tired beforehand, but if she's up to it, then so is he. And he has an idea to help her get some much-needed sleep. Rivers can see that this fantastic, exasperating woman has problems no princess should ever have to deal with.
Which leaves him with one option: to kiss her again. She's not even apologetic about being born into a royal family! Says it's his problem to overcome, not hers. Now here's Miss Royalpants, insisting that he escort her around the marine institute, explain what he s doing, kiss her until her toes curl - no, wait, that was his idea. His boss is taken with the royal redhead - brunette, whatever, it's not like he keeps track of that stuff - and nobody realizes that he just wants to be left alone in his lab. Some princess expects him to wait on her, hand and dimpled foot. Shel ("Never Sheldon") Rivers has a problem. But can a wild man Prince and a modern American girl make a life together? And will the palace still be standing when the dust clears? And when His Highness discovers Christina can give as good as she gets, he's Prince Charmed, if not quite charming. He may be a bit unruly-actually, the words untamed and slightly dangerous come to mind-but Christina's no delicate flower herself. until she gets a good look at Prince David. An American, even! Stranded tourist Christina Krabbe is American, and a commoner, but she has zero interest in enduring a royal wedding, producing royal heirs, and becoming Queen of Alaska. Unfortunately, when the rest of the royals find you mildly savage, marrying off your royal brood can be a royal pain.
Other royal families may find them shocking, but after all, in this wilderness kingdom, being a crack shot and expert trapper is just as important as knowing your salad fork from your dessert fork. And the royal family is as rough-around-the-edges as they are coolly civilized. The country of Alaska is as forbidding as it is beautiful. and now, the King of Alaska badly needs a bride for his son and heir.
Instead, Alaska has won its independence and established itself as a constitutional monarchy. In this delightful and dazzling erotic novel, MaryJanice Davidson creates an alternate contemporary world nearly identical to ours in which Russia never sold the Alaskan territory to the United States.
