ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 15, 2019
“Shall we begin?” When spoken by my new husband, these three little words fill me with terror and anticipation.
In private, King Henry rules my body like he rules his country—with unrelenting control and passion. I crave his orders, his punishment, his commands. Outside the bedroom, we’re strangers caught in a web of lies and decadence.
Our marriage is a sham, a business arrangement devised to save my life and secure his crown. He doesn’t love me. He loves my body, controlling it, shaming it, worshipping it. To survive the dangers at court, I need to be smart, but it’s hard to think straight with a man like Henry between my legs.
Each night, he locks the bedroom door, determined to teach me a new lesson. Obedience, patience, trust. I lie awake in bed waiting for the sound of his footsteps and the latest installment in pleasure and pain. My heart pounds when the hinges creak and his broad shoulders block the door. I’m not ready, but I can’t wait to feel his hands on me. He shoves his bowtie in my mouth, binds my hands to the headboard, and whispers in my ear…
“Shall we begin?”
From USA Today bestselling author Jeana E. Mann comes this dark, contemporary romance filled with twists, turns, and unprecedented heat.

REVIEW: The second installment in the series, The Rebel Queen is an exciting, intense, suspenseful romance that is sure to keep everyone on their toes. I do recommend reading the first in the series; The Royal Arrangement, though, can be read as a standalone, the first book will definitely give a better reading experience.
The start of the book is quick, starting off with the wedding. Everly and Henry flounder for a since of normalcy, each trying to find out what their new roles will be. The passion and lust between Henry and Everly is visibly felt, but the emotions between them are murky at best. Though the love each other, trust is hard for both of them. The first book in the series will grab you by the hand and then drag you into the next, this one will grab you by the heart and not let you go until it is SHATTERED!
The only thing that made me a little sad what how fast the ending came, I want more, so much more!! A heartfelt, intriguing story that I would recommend to anyone. A one-click buy for sure!

His light footsteps approach, sending my pulse rate higher. He doesn’t speak. He shrugs out of his jacket, loosens his tie, and sits in the elegant chair at the end of the bed. My skin prickles under the weight of his scrutiny. I’ve never been self-conscious about my body, but insecurity races through me. He’s the king. How many women has he had in his bed? If they’re anything like Lady Clayton, they’ve been the most beautiful women in the world. I tug on the restraints, wishing I could crawl beneath the sheets.
He drags a finger over his upper lip. “I’ve changed my mind.”
“What?” Mortification sends heat rushing into my face. Changed his mind? About me? About us? A knot clenches in my belly.
“I’ve always taken the lead in our lessons, but tonight, I’m giving you control.”
I slide my hands out of the restraints and sit up, clutching a pillow to cover my nudity, feeling vulnerable. “I don’t understand.”
“Take the reins, Everly.” He enunciates each word in his haughty British accent. “Show me how persuasive you can be. Make me want you.”
