A Message from Nichole:

I’m very excited to be working with HarperCollins to bring the American Royalty series to life. I’m very interested in the life of politics–there is so much that goes on behind the scenes that most people never hear about and it intertwines with our daily government and in some ways, affecting everyone. As I was thinking about that fact, Jake and Maddie’s story began to take form and I found myself enthralled by the challenges they would face and just what their happy-ever-after would entail, if there could *be* a happy-ever-after.

About Book 1 (Title To Be Announced) in The American Royalty Series:

Color me jaded, but coming home just isn’ t the same when you have to go through security before you can see your dad. Don’ t get me wrong, everyone had to go through security to see my dad. Even Kings, Queens, celebrities, my step-mother and half-brother we’ re given the metal detector treatment. It wasn’ t like I was a hooligan being singled out. It’ s just part of life when your father is president. Go figure.

Maddie’ s father is in his second term as president and she could care less. Being a politician’ s child has made her world weary and leery of being manipulated. When she comes home from college for her summer break, she thinks it’ s the last time she’ ll be in the white house. Her father’ s term is almost over and she’ ll finally be able to live the life she wanted. What she doesn’ t count on is facing her nemesis, Jake Simmon, back from the war. As the son of the Vice President, she had constantly been paired with him for events and during campaign tours. The tabloids loved to speculate about a possible relationship, but that couldn’ t be farther from the truth. Jake was the perfect politician’ s son. He always did as he was asked, always smiled, and to her absolute horror always looked dreamy.

In other words, he was her exact opposite.

Jake was finally home, but he couldn’ t wait to escape. Instead of searching for peace and quiet after losing his leg in Afghanistan, he was sitting in on campaign meetings and giving interviews. He had never felt so helpless in his life, not even after waking strapped to a table in a blistering hot med tent. His mother was intent on using his brand new disability as a campaign tool. Show off her wounded son so people would find her relatable. The only positive thing he had to focus on was the fact that he would get to see Maddie again, which was pathetic when you considered that they hated each other. She’ d always gotten under his skin, throwing caution to the wind and doing what she’ d wanted while he had walked the line. In a world where everyone looked at him with sympathy, he knew she wouldn’ t hold back. And though he was loathe to admit it, one of his favorite past times was verbally sparring with the spunky brunette. What he isn’ t counting on is how much they have both changed over the last two years.
