What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Romance, glamour, ambition and power . . . meet the Washingtons - the most scandalous royal family ever!
HRH Princess Samantha has always been a royal rebel. She's the spare not the heir, so no one minds too much who she dates or how hard she parties. It helps that her sister, Princess Beatrice, is literally perfect. She's demure, sweet and beautiful, and she knows that the crown always comes first - no matter what her heart might really want.
But they're not the only ones with their eye on the throne. Daphne Deighton might be 'newly noble' but she won Prince Jefferson's heart once, and she'll do anything to get back into the court's favour - and his bed. If only she knew that her competition was a common nobody - plain little Nina Gonzalez, the daughter of the king's secretary.
Together these four young women must navigate the drama, gossip, scheming and sizzling romance of the most glorious court in the world. They'll either be crowned in glory - or end up as shockingly royal disasters.
Critics Review
-
Scandals, romance and betrayal abound […] pure escapism
Mail on Sunday - 'Must-Read Books of the Year' -
An addictive Jilly Cooperesque saga
Guardian -
A fun, fast-paced read packed with drama, scandal and romance
The Sun -
Inventive, fresh, and deliciously romantic – American Royals is an absolute delight!
Sarah J. Maas, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Throne of Glass series and Court of Thorns and Roses series -
If American History class had been about the Washington family, I would have paid much better attention. The lives of the American royal family will hook you in the very first pages and never let go. Katharine McGee does the remarkable thing of creating an alternate American world that is both relatable, believable, fantastical, aspirational, and completely addictive. What really shines is the perfect balance of blending real history and an imagined kingdom and creating a story that reads both like a fairy tale but also something utterly modern and fresh. I loved, loved, loved this book and can’t wait for the next one.
Sara Shepard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars and Perfectionists series -
With the seemingly endless influx of new novels hitting the real and virtual bookshelves every day, the choice can seem overwhelming. But, occasionally a novel comes along with the promise of delivering escapism by way of a subject matter – royals, romance and a Gossip Girl-esque scandal – that is a no-brainer must-read . . . American Royals [is] just such a novel set to ignite and delight book clubs and literary-loving fans of The Princess Diaries, Gossip Girl, The Crown or even just the real-life British royals.
