Royal Brotherhood Series

One Night with a Prince Scoop
- I had a hard time finding a heroine suitable for Byrne. She couldn’t be just like every other woman he has known, or why would he find her compelling enough to spend a lifetime with? I started out conceiving her as someone he would want to take care of, but then realized he needed someone stronger than that. And that’s how my pistol-packing general’s daughter was born.
- Yes, I made up Whist for the Wicked. But hey, somebody in the Regency period was surely debauched enough to try the equivalent of strip poker. Why not?
- Princess Charlotte had a few troubles concerning suitable suitors, which isn’t surprising given who her father was. You can read more about that here.
- Cameron, Mrs. Fitzherbert’s fictional son in the book, is based on a real guy whose family claimed that he was the son of her and Prinny: James Ord. For a list of his other rumored illegitimate children, go to my All about Prinny and His Mistresses page.

“Fortunately, Jeffries (To Pleasure a Prince, In the Prince’s Bed) not only beguiles readers with scenes of passion and vivid characters but steadily builds the story’s tension to an exciting conclusion. The details of gambling, mistresses and scandalous conduct further enrich the tapestry against which this emotionally satisfying story plays out. Jeffries’s readers will be royally pleased.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Jeffries continues to write books with heart throbbing sensual intensity that you never want to see end and this is such a prime example! …Splendid protagonists, intelligent and dynamic dialogs – it just doesn’t get any better than this as Jeffries wraps up her latest trilogy of the fabulous Royal Brotherhood series!!”
