In the wake of a loss that echoed throughout the world, the Washington siblings are struggling to move forward. One thing, at least, is clear: the laws of succession. Princess Beatrice has become queen. Princess Samantha is now the heir. And Prince Jefferson is still just that—a prince, beloved by the entire country.
After centuries of kings on the throne, Beatrice longs to prove that a woman can rule. But her new position forces her to make surprising choices about the future of America… and about her own future.
Samantha was never meant to be the heir. Everyone thinks of her as the party princess anyway, so she might as well keep playing the role—and find someone to play it alongside her.
As Daphne and Nina both know, being in orbit of the crown means keeping your friends close and your enemies closer. But what happens when the line between friend and enemy starts to blur?
A new reign has begun…
“McGee skillfully juggles each woman’s narratives, framing their struggles with plenty of pomp and circumstance and the challenges of living very public lives. Add in a dramatic finale that packs in all the feels, and you’ve got a royal winner.”
“A deliciously soapy American royal family . . . McGee’s characters are well-crafted and flawed, giving the narrative emotional texture that elevates it above the dramatic formula.”
“Readers will be hooked. . . . A fun twist on history as we know it, and the ending will have readers hoping for a sequel.”
