If The Princess Diaries 2, Succession, The Crown, and The Hating Game had a torrid affair and somehow produced a book... it would be this one.Love & Other Royal Scandals is what happens when royal secrets collide with revenge-with banter, betrayal, and one bastard prince at the center of it all.Sebastian Hawthorne believed in one fundamental truth: if you orchestrate a political coup without technically committing treason, you deserve a damn party.Too bad he also just found out he's the illegitimate son of a dead king. Which puts a bit of a damper on the champagne.Now he's slightly hungover, inconveniently royal, and highly motivated to ruin the man who raised him like a son while treating him like a pawn.Enter Harper Sinclair: brilliant investigative journalist, chronic overachiever, and professional thorn in his side. She's also not his biggest fan-he may have killed one of her stories. (He apologized. Badly.)They're not partners. They're not friends. And they are absolutely not flirting-despite the late-night strategy meetings, the mutual loathing with a side of longing, and a royal wedding looming like a ticking bomb.In a palace built on secrets, the most dangerous thing they're hiding... might be how they feel about each other.Full of sharp banter, slow-burn tension, and late-night terrace confessions, Love & Other Royal Scandals is a romantic political comedy where enemies become lovers (and possibly co-conspirators), power is personal, and no one escapes unscathed.Perfect for fans of The Royal We, Red, White & Royal Blue, and morally complicated men in excellent coats, this novel delivers wit, heart, and emotional devastation in equal measure.This book is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone.
