Publisher's summary

In this modern Cinderella story, New York Times bestselling author Susan Stoker weaves a tale of stepfamilies, stalkers, and a suspenseful, sweeping romance that proves true love can conquer all.

Former military man and member of a royal family Callum Redmon can’t deny his sense of responsibility. So when his cousin’s latest love interest claims to have a stalker, Cal reluctantly meets with the young woman and her mother. He wants to write off the situation as a complete farce—if only his feelings for another member of the household could be as easily dismissed.

Since her father’s death seventeen years ago, Juniper Rose has been at the cruel beck and call of her stepmother and stepsister. Her fantasies of escape mean leaving behind her father’s beloved home, but enough is enough: when Cal offers her a way out sooner rather than later, June takes the leap.

Cal’s home in Maine with his military brothers seems like the safest place to start fresh. But as Cal and June’s fairy-tale romance blossoms into something real, they find that the dangers stalking them may have been real all along.

The Royal is the second book in the Game of Chance series by Susan Stoker
Juniper “June” Rose has been tricked and treated badly by her evil stepmother Elaine and stepsister Carla. All June wants is to live a quite peaceful life without all the drama her stepfamily creates. Their latest drama is a fake stalker to snare Callum “Cal” Redmon who is a member of the royal family so Carla can marry him and become a princess.
I loved this book. The characters are amazing, and the story is original. There is a lot going on in this book that I am leaving out of my review, so I don’t give away any spoilers. This book has everything you want in a romance. I laughed, gasped, cried, and smiled while listening to this book. I consider this to be a must read.

Another great story and performance

Susan Stoker writes the kind of stories you want to read again and again. This one is no exception. Cal and June appear to be total opposites. His is a prince. She is a no one special. But when they meet, they both find a connection that cannot be denied.

Loved it!

Susan never disappoints! I absolutely loved it. I couldn't put it down until it was finished.
