Working as a motel maid in small-town California, while trying to take care of my five orphaned siblings, I never expected much from my life. Until a chance encounter with an undercover royal, the charming Prince of Sweden, changed everything.\n"The Swedish Prince is a romantic comedy that is the perfect blend of humor, sexy and heart, and I loved everything about this endearing story of a prince who meets his queen."- USA TODAY\nI never believed in fairy-tales.\nNever held out for Prince Charming.\nGrowing up poor in small-town California as the oldest of six siblings, I knew I would never ride off into the sunset with anyone. That was even more apparent when a senseless tragedy took the lives of my parents, forcing me to become the sole guardian of our dysfunctional household at the mere age of twenty-three.\nThen a fateful encounter literally brought Prince Charming to my doorstep.\nAt first I thought Viktor was just your average businessman passing through, albeit obscenely handsome, six-foot-five, blue-eyed, and mysteriously rich.\nBut soon I discovered the truth behind Viktor's façade.\nBeneath his quiet, enigmatic gaze and cocky charm, is a man who is running away from who he really is. A role he'd rather not fulfill.\nHe is Viktor of House Nordin, His Royal Highness, The Crown Prince of Sweden.\nYet uncovering Viktor's secret was only the first step.\nI didn't expect to fall in love with him.\nI didn't expect to have my whole life turned upside down.\nWhen you're from two different worlds, can your hearts meet somewhere in the middle?\nOr do happily-ever-afters only exist in fairy-tales?\nWARNING: The Swedish Prince is oh-so sweet, enchanting and funny, but it does contain foul language (lots of the F word) and graphic sexual scenes (lots of dirty talk). Reader discretion is advised for those who are sensitive.

When I first met Blake Crawford, all I wanted to do was hit him in the face. 
Maybe the groin. 
Okay, maybe I wanted to kiss him too, but that's neither here nor there. I mean, he may have a gorgeous English accent, sexy full lips and an ass I'd like to bite but... 
Where was I? 
Right. 
Being in the same creative writing class, he's the last person I wanted to speak to, let alone be paired up with for my final assignment. 
But here comes the kicker...not only did our project end up getting us both As but we found out we work well together. 
Really well together. 
I hate him and he hates me and yet we churn out gold. 
We've started writing self-published erotica under a pen name and let me tell you one thing... 
Writing dirty sex scenes with the sexiest, most infuriating man you know is a lot harder than you think. 
And keeping our hands off each other? 
Well that's another story...one with an ending I didn't see coming.\nSmut is a standalone, tongue-in-cheek romantic comedy from the NYT bestselling author of The Pact and The Royals Next Door.

Instead he's marooned on a royal estate in the middle of nowhere charged with chasing after demon children and dodging the machinations of meddling staff.

When Laila took the job as a nanny for the Norwegian royal children in order to be closer to her ailing grandmother in Oslo, the last thing she expected was to have her life turned upside down - again. But as much as James gets on her nerves, he's also getting under her skin, and the tension between them sizzles just as devastatingly as before. As undeniable sparks turn James and Laila's battle royal into a more serious game of hearts, nanny and bodyguard will have to decide just how much they're willing to risk for a second chance at love.
