BOTH BOOKS AVAILABLE NOW
BOOK ONE
“Once upon a time, there was a girl who dressed up and went to a big party at the palace. When she was there, she met a prince. They danced and fell in love…”
Damn good line. Too bad I don’t believe a word of it anymore.
My name is Claire Montgomery...and I’m not a princess. I’m a fighter. I worked hard to earn my place on the emergency image repair team for one of the biggest public relations companies in the country. We’ve been called to the renowned Chicago headquarters of Stone Global Corporation, where it’s our job to clean up a heap of the Stone family’s filthiest laundry. Our success will be the biggest victory of my career. I’m on my game. I’m ready.
Why doesn’t “ready” include a contingency plan for Killian Stone?
My name is Killian Stone...and they call me the “Enigma of Magnificent Mile." That’s just the way I like it. Elite tycoons want into my bank account. Their wives and daughters want into my pants. They’ll all do anything for a piece of the enigma—until a crack in the castle is too huge for anyone to ignore. What they all don’t know is that I’m thrilled about the fissure. Their fascination with the scandal means nobody will look at the bigger secret of the Stone family. I’m safe.
Until Claire Montgomery walks through my doors.
Her honesty, her bravery, her humor…they pull me in, a prism against the gray walls of my tower. I’m captivated. For the very first time, I long to shed the enigma. To share my secret. But what the hell will that get me? Even if she fits the slipper I offer…I’m no Prince Charming.

REVIEW 5 STARS
This book really pulls you in from the very beginning. Claire Montgomery works for a PR firm that is hired by Killian Stone, of Stone Global Corporation, to repair the damage that his brother's behavior has done to the companies image.
The fire between these two characters start from day one, from the moment that Claire saw Killian Stone she knew that he was all alpha male and a force to be reckoned with. Killian oozes power and sex appeal that comes off the pages.
Claire and Killian both have secrets, Claire has a co-worker who you will be screaming at whenever she comes into play. Margaux has information on Claire that she is afraid that if it ever got out, it could destroy her and hurt Killian in the process. Killian has his on secrets that he is keeping one that could bring his family and company that he is trying to protect down.
No Prince Charming is a fast paced, steamy, thriller that will leave you wanting more.

BOOK TWO
Synopsis:
Behind
every good man…is the love of an even better woman.
Those
were just pretty words before I met Claire Montgomery. Before my
fairy queen burst into my life, I didn’t recognize the bastard in
my morning mirror—but her love has given me the strength to face
the imposter, even embrace him. My tower in the clouds is no longer a
sentence of isolation; it’s a jumping point to the stars. With
Claire at my side, I’m the king I always wanted to be, the Killian
Stone I always dreamed of becoming.
Which
means for once, I want the mask guarding my secret to stay right
where it is.
If
you want the grown-up fairy tale…learn to love the dark
side.
Profound
sentiment. Wish I could get on board with it but the prince in
pinstripes has other ideas. Life has been a dream since Killian burst
into the ball offering the perfect fit—his heart and mine, not the
shoes, the car or the jewelry—but the treasures have become his
armor, hiding the man I yearn to know. I refuse to open his little
velvet box until he opens himself, letting me see even the dark
hallways of his soul…
Until
he lifts all his masks for me.
Master
of the masquerade…
Fate
has always bowed to my bidding. I should have known it was just
picking its time to exact the best revenge, to reveal the secrets
that will destroy everything. Without my disguise, am I still the man
Claire fell in love with…or another penniless prince vying for an
unattainable dream?
Mistress
of his ruin?
He
always told me to be careful what I wish for. By demanding his truth,
have I not only demolished the dream we had…but the man I’ve
loved more than any other?

Hi
there. I'm Angel: book lover, writing addict, hopeless romantic, pop
culture geek and avid shoe lover.

A
bit about me...
I've
been hooked on books since I was a kid but it got worse in my
twenties, when I discovered romances--the hotter, the better. Growing
up in Southern California, with lots of surfer manliness surrounded
me, was certainly a good boost for reading about delicious alpha guys
and the women who adore them. When I learned I had a knack for
telling these stories too, I guess you could say I was doomed--though
my path toward romance novelist took a few detours via a
concert-reviewing gig for my college newspaper (free show
tickets...backstage passes...that was a no-brainer), artist
interviews for a Beverly Hills dance music mag, personal assistant
work for a record producer, dance club disc jockey, and a lot of fun
in the hospitality industry.
These
days, I still live in California, and have found an amazing alpha guy
of my own who was brave enough to marry me. We live on a street that
looks like Brigadoon, with our beautiful daughter. I have the best
life ever, and never forget to thank the Big Guy Upstairs for it,
either.
