The Grumpy Prince

By Lili Valente

Prince Jeffrey is bossy, smug, overprotective, and the last man I want to be my first.

Do I want to know what all the sexy-times fuss is about? Obviously.

Do I want to lose my virginity to a grumpy prince hell-bent on wrecking my plans? Absolutely not.

(The fact that he's ridiculously good-looking and my childhood crush is beside the point.)

Here's the problem: Jeffrey is the only person alive who believes my family's curse is real-the one that says I'm doomed to die young, paying for sins my ancestors committed five hundred years ago.

He knows I'll sacrifice anything to protect my sister and save my family's throne.

Including myself.

And he's decided, in his infuriating, cranky, no-one-asked-him way, that he's not going to let that happen.

But he can't save me from Fate. No one can.

Or so I thought-until I discover my grumpy prince has secrets of his own, and a plan to break the curse for good.

Now we're chasing ancient clues into danger, into royal secrets, and into a suspicious number of "just one bed" situations I absolutely did not sign up for.

Soon, it's hard to remember why I can't fall for this protective, devoted, secretly tender man.

I left home ready to die for my family.

Jeffrey gives me a hundred reasons to want to live.

But curses don't break easily, and if we can't uncover the truth in time, our happily ever after may be over before it begins...

Grumpy protector. Forced proximity. Virgin heroine. Star-crossed lovers. One ancient curse, one impossible prince-and a good girl who finally has a reason to live.
