N.H.J. Bartholomé
The Princess and me
Elizabeth Le Bon has been raised for one purpose: to marry well and secure her family’s place in English high society. She enters her first London courtship season determined to find the respectable husband her family expects. She hopes it's the charming and handsome Duke, Liam Arlington. And when he chooses her for the first dance, Elizabeth believes her childhood dream may finally come true. But while Liam is courting Elizabeth, she discovers that he is no longer the only Arlington who captures her attention. Liam's sister, Princess Christina, is everything Elizabeth has been taught to admire: elegant, composed and fiercely intelligent. Yet behind Christina’s perfect manners lies a woman trapped by duty, reputation and desires society refuses to name. As Elizabeth is drawn deeper into the dazzling world of balls, suitors and whispered scandals, her friendship with Christina begins to awaken feelings she never imagined possible. Caught between the life she was raised to want and the love she is beginning to understand, Elizabeth must decide what matters most: the safety of a perfect match, or the courage to choose a future of her own.
