Bøger af Katharine McGee

To prinsesser kappes om tronen. To piger kappes om prinsens hjerte. Men der er kun plads til én dronning.   I 250 år har Washington-familien siddet på den amerikanske trone, lige siden folket gjorde General George Washington til deres konge. Men de er ikke som andre royale familier. De er amerikanere. Kronprinsesse Beatrice er den perfekte tronfølger. Hun er ærbar, sød og smuk, og hun ved, at tronen altid kommer i første række. Hendes lillesøster, prinsesse Samantha, er den royale rebel, som altid bryder reglerne. Og så er der prins Jefferson, Samanthas tvillingebror. Hvis han var blevet født en generation tidligere, ville han have været direkte arving til tronen. Befolkningen forguder den flotte prins – og to unge kvinder vil gøre hvad som helst for at vinde hans kærlighed.   Tænk, hvis USA havde en kongelig familie! Mød The Washingtons!
