American Royals

by Katharine McGee

Part of American Royals, book 1

First published 2019

Princess Beatrice Washington stands on the brink of making history as America's first queen regnant. The crown that General George Washington accepted after the Revolutionary War will soon pass to her, but the weight of duty she once embraced now feels crushing. Her sister Samantha cares little for royal protocol, finding herself drawn to the one boy she can never have. Their twin brother Jefferson would have inherited the throne under the old succession laws, but new regulations place him third in line. Two very different girls compete for the affections of America's beloved prince. In this alternate history where the House of Washington has ruled for two and a half centuries, three royal siblings must choose between personal desires and public expectations. Each faces a moment that will define not only their own future but the future of the American monarchy itself.
