The only life Princess Odele Malabella knows is a lavish one. Years of tragedy killed off her family members one by one until she and her long-lost cousin, Maisie, uncovered a murderous fiend and set the kingdom of Thalassar to rights. With the weight of her ex-engagement off her shoulders, Odele has plans. Plans to travel the seven sea kingdoms and find adventures. Plans that don’t include marriage, ruling, or responsibilities. Only, royal life is not so simple, and the ultimatum the queen presents is a double-edged sword. Marry, or die. Being a slave—er, wife—to the bastard Prince of Iol was never part of her plan, and escaping from the clutches of him and his brooding guard is not easy to do as they journey towards the cold, northern waters of his kingdom. A kingdom that gives the Princess of Thalassar more than she bargained for when royal lies and deadly plots begin to unravel from the shadows. Lies and plots that just might change the fate of her heart—and their kingdoms—forever. Royal Lies contains all three books: Slave to Ice & Shadows, Princes in Frost Castles, and Queen of Frozen War.

Written by investigative journalist Susan Bradford, Royal Blood Lies takes the reader back to days of ancient Rome to reveal the origins of the "divine right (rite) to rule," and why those who held claim to this right posed a threat to the world's would be rulers. The author documents how the elites established and used international spy networks to win wars and conquer nations and how populist revolutions, religion, and wars were weaponized against the people. Steeped in the philosophy of the rational Enlightenment, a warrior-merchant class came to dominate the corporate and political establishment, with some amassing fortunes in the trillions of dollars. With the secrets of rulers encoded in the works of William Shakespeare, Royal Blood Lies documents the origins and practices of a secret cult that came to rule humanity and follows the rise of the East India Company which became a powerful force for global imperialism that laid the foundation for the Great Reset and China's Belt and Road Initiative to fulfill an ancient Roman agenda. Understand these secrets will empower readers so that they can take back their power as a free people. As usual, Susan's book is packed with fascinating information and new reveals!Susan's website is: www.susanbradford.org

In this suspenseful and heart-pounding novel from New York Times bestselling author Lucinda Riley, an ambitious young journalist unravels a dangerous mystery that threatens to devastate the British monarchy. Keeping secrets is a dangerous game. When Sir James Harrison, one the greatest actors of his generation, passes away at the age of ninety-five, he leaves behind not just a heartbroken family but also a secret so shocking, it could rock the English establishment to its core. Joanna Haslam, an up-and-coming reporter, is assigned to cover the legendary actor’s funeral, attended by glitzy celebrities of every background. But Joanna stumbles on something dark beneath the glamour: the mention of a letter James Harrison has left behind—the contents of which many have been desperate to keep concealed for over seventy years. As she peels back the veil of lies that has shrouded the secret, she realizes that she’s close to uncovering something deadly serious—and the royal family may be implicated.

Full of salacious scandal, shocking twists, and captivating romance, and written in Lucinda Riley’s signature “vividly drawn and lushly atmospheric” (RT Book Reviews) prose, The Royal Secret is “a full-throttle escapist adventure” (Lancashire Evening Post).
