Royal Pain

MAIA Even without her actual crown, Maia knows she’s a princess. The media dubs her as the carefree it-girl when they’re not calling her a train wreck. They don’t notice her record-breaking impact on environmental protection or her humanitarian work. As she continues working at her botanical garden in hopes that she might be properly recognized, her biggest threat walks through the door. Sure, he’s devilishly handsome and underneath their bickering is phenomenal sex, but he could ruin her beyond repair. His tech billionaire status doesn’t impress her; it’s the reason she tries to resist him. TRISTAN Tristan has everything he could ever want—luxury, women, status—except for one thing: access to his inheritance. Much to his dismay, his grandfather’s terms include three hundred hours of community service. Quick work at a botanical garden turns into a chase for the world’s most infuriating woman, one who challenges everything he thought he knew. When their enemies-with-benefits affair turns serious, he struggles to tell her the truth: that it’s all for money.
