Crown Jewels: Standalone Off-Limits Romance

For the first time in two years, I find myself back in the Hamptons, attending a party where Prince Liam, also known as "Crown Jewels" by the paparazzi of TMZ, is present. I try to convince myself that his captivating charm and irresistible charisma have no effect on me, despite my secret guilty pleasure of stalking his Instagram feed, something my friends indulge in as well.

I'm no longer part of that celebrity scene, having stepped away from the limelight of my family's reality show. These days, when people pass me on the street, they might give me a curious glance, but rarely do they recognize me as Lucy Rhodes or inquire about my love for Lucky Charms cereal or the healing of my broken toe.

However, my attempts to dismiss the prince's allure are challenged when we find ourselves sharing a night of passion, a secret that no one else knows. I convince myself that it meant nothing, that it was a mere fleeting encounter, until I am faced with the unexpected – two pink lines that indicate the presence of a life growing within me.

Ella James, a USA Today bestselling author, weaves an emotional royal romance that delves into the complexities of this unexpected situation. As a woman who has purposefully distanced herself from the celebrity realm, I now find myself thrust back into the spotlight, carrying the child of a prince.

The news of my pregnancy becomes a closely guarded secret, as I navigate the uncharted waters of this new reality. The media frenzy surrounding Prince Liam's public persona only adds to the burden I carry, knowing that our brief tryst has resulted in a life-altering consequence.

Torn between my desire for anonymity and the overwhelming responsibilities that come with carrying the heir to a royal lineage, I must make decisions that will not only impact my own life but also the future of the child I now carry. The emotional turmoil and the weight of this revelation test the boundaries of my convictions and force me to confront the very foundations of my relationship with the charming and enigmatic Prince Liam.

As I delve deeper into this unexpected journey, I am faced with the reality that the lines between our worlds have become blurred, and the choices I make will have far-reaching consequences. Ella James masterfully weaves a captivating tale that explores the complexities of love, duty, and the unexpected twists that can arise when the lives of a commoner and a royal collide.
