🔥 Love Reigns: A Crown & Heart Universe Collection

Crown & Heart Universe Collection

Three unforgettable couples. One island nation.

And a love powerful enough to challenge crowns, duty, and destiny.

Welcome to Lytua—a lush, fictional Caribbean country where power carries a price, loyalty is tested, and love may be the most dangerous choice of all.

This special collection brings together the full opening era of the Crown & Heart universe, including the newly released In the Queen’s Service and the fan-favorite novella A Matter of Taste.

👑 The Queen’s Desire Duet (Books 1 & 2)

International Incident & Queen of His Heart

Khara Therin rules Lytua with pride, precision, and no time for fairy tales.

Every man who’s ever looked at her has seen a throne—not a woman.

Until a dangerously sexy American architect mistakes her for her assistant… and for the first time, she is simply seen.

What begins as deception becomes a connection neither of them expected—and soon, a love threatened by power, duty, and the weight of a crown.

And when her life and reign are at risk, the man who loves her makes the only choice he can:

He betrays her.
To save her.
And he would do it again.

🍴 A Matter of Taste (Book 1.5)

One wrecked cake. One ruined gown. Mortal enemies.

Royal stylist Maxine Abernathy has never forgiven silver-fox chef Nathan Olivier for a disaster that nearly destroyed her career. He’s infuriating. Arrogant. And far too attractive for comfort.

Nathan, haunted by a tragedy that cost a member of the Queen’s Guard their life, has rebuilt himself in the kitchen—but Maxine is the one ingredient he can’t control.

Trapped together during the hottest summer Lytua has ever seen—with no electricity and nowhere to escape—old anger melts into something far more dangerous.

Heat.
Tension.
Desire.

And the realization that sometimes, the line between enemy and everything is razor-thin.

🛡️ In the Queen’s Service (Book 3)

Captain Jaden Everly has built his life around discipline, loyalty, and responsibility. As head of the Queen’s Elite Guard, he’s used to carrying the weight of other people’s safety on his shoulders—and keeping his own desires firmly in check.

Dr. Aimee Sebastien doesn’t make that easy.

Brilliant, sharp-tongued, and deeply committed to her students, Aimee has no interest in being dazzled by titles or power. She’s learned the hard way what happens when you let other people’s expectations shape your choices.

But Jaden is more than the control he’s learned to live by, and Aimee is more than the careful walls she’s built.

As attraction grows, both are forced to confront the same impossible question:

What happens when the life you’ve sworn to protect leaves no room for the love you can’t deny?

This is a story about duty, desire, and what happens when two people stop pretending they can walk away untouched.

These couples burn.
They fight.
They fall.

And in Lytua…

Love reigns.
