She’s seduced by a stranger and claimed as his princess in this dramatic secret-baby story from the USA Today–bestselling author. After an exquisite encounter with a handsome Sicilian, idealistic Tess is left alone, penniless and pregnant. But when Stefano returns to New York, he discovers his unknown heir and reveals a secret of his own: he’s a prince! Stefano is determined to protect his daughter, and the first thing on his royal agenda? Claiming Tess as his Cinderella bride! “The romance was delightful . . . I would recommend The Heir the Prince Secures by Jennie Lucas, if you enjoy second chance romances, the opposites attract trope or books by authors Kate Hewitt, Lynne Graham, Abby Green and Maya Blake.” —Harlequin Junkie
