{"product_id":"2940156706457","title":"A Prince for Christmas (Royal House of Leone)","description":"Lifestyle blogger Serena Raines is used to giving advice on how to \"live your best life\", but finds herself alone and devastated when her fiancé leaves her. Not ready to share the news of her breakup with her family, she goes into hiding for Christmas alone at a luxurious beach house. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEuropean royal Sandro Leone refuses to let his friends spend Christmas alone, so he rents a house for them to share--and finds a strange and lovely woman already there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSerena is embarrassed to be discovered in her hideaway and fights a fierce attraction to the charming playboy prince. Things get worse when a surprise winter storm prevents his friends from arriving and leaves them stranded--together.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEXCERPT:\u003cbr\u003e\"We all make mistakes,\" he said again in that infuriatingly therapeutic tone.\u003cbr\u003e\"Do we? I bet you don't ever make mistakes.\" She couldn't get herself to sound calm. Emotion that had built up in her in the last few weeks, heck, maybe the last year--or maybe her whole life--exploded to the surface. \"Why would you? You're the handsome prince--the knight in shining armor--who any girl would welcome into her life. I bet you've never experienced a single moment of rejection.\" \u003cbr\u003eHe watched her, bemused, and she fought a powerful urge to slap him hard across his handsome, arrogant face. \"Have you?\"\u003cbr\u003eHer answer came in the form of a hard, hot kiss. \u003cbr\u003eSandro's lips crushed over hers, and her protest evaporated instantly in the fire of his kiss. Her limbs grew weak as his big, strong arms wrapped around her. The warmth of his body enveloped her, and his musky, masculine scent overwhelmed her senses. \u003cbr\u003eFor a crazy instant she was able to just let go--of all the pain, the embarrassment, the disappointment, the secrecy, the uncertainty about herself and her future--and lose herself in the fierce intensity of his kiss.\u003cbr\u003eA sudden gust of wind threw sand against them and stung her cheek hard enough for her to pull back. She stared at him, blinking, for a moment. Then her heart sank and shame flooded through her. \"I guess you just proved my point.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis story is part of the ROYAL HOUSE OF LEONE series:\u003cbr\u003eThe King's Bought Bride (Darias and Emma) \u003cbr\u003eA Prince for Christmas – FREE short - (Sandro and Serena) \u003cbr\u003eThe Prince's Secret Baby (Sandro and Serena) \u003cbr\u003eThe Princess's Scandalous Affair (Beatriz and Lorenzo - coming spring 2017) \u003cbr\u003eThe Princess and the Player (Lina and Amadou - coming spring 2017) \u003cbr\u003eTaming the Royal Beast (Rigo and Bella - coming fall 2017) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVisit www.jenlewis.com for more information and to join the new release newsletter.
