Título: American Queen (New Camelot, 1)
Autor: Sierra Simone
Sinopse: He wants me to be his queen...
Warned as a girl to keep her kisses to herself, Greer Galloway wants nothing to do with kisses--or love. Twice she's ignored the childhood warning and kissed a man, and both times ended in gutting, miserable heartbreak. Now she's sworn off all romance forever, determined to teach her classes and do her research and live out the rest of her days alone.
I want to be his everything.
But Ash Colchester hasn't sworn off Greer--not at all. Still in love with the girl he once kissed in a circle of broken glass, this soldier-turned-President has never forgotten the taste of her lips or the sound of her whispered, yes, please against his mouth. He's never forgotten the promises he wanted to make her and couldn't, because she was too young for him then, and far too innocent for the things he needs. But he can't wait any longer . . .
But can this modern-day fairy tale have a happily ever after for three people?
Desperate to have her, Ash sends his best friend Embry to bring Greer to him, not knowing they have their own secrets, their own tragedies together. Their own cravings . . .
Soon, Greer finds herself caught between past and present, pleasure and pain--and the two men who long for each other as much as they long for her. And as war and betrayal press ever closer, they tumble headlong into a passionate love affair that will change the world.
From the USA Today bestselling author of Priest and Misadventures of a Curvy Girl comes a contemporary reimagining of the legend of King Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot--elegant, carnal, and unforgettable.

Sobre a editora
Os livros da editora Bloom Books costumam mergulhar o leitor em histórias intensas de relacionamentos complexos, muitas vezes marcados por paixões conflituosas e personagens moralmente ambíguos. O catálogo revela uma predileção por romances com tons sombrios e dramáticos, onde o controle, o desejo e o poder se entrelaçam em cenários que vão desde universidades elitistas até universos fantásticos e mundos urbanos carregados de tensão. As narrativas frequentemente exploram dilemas emocionais profundos, envolvendo personagens que lutam contra seus próprios demônios e contra forças externas, em contextos que transitam entre o romance contemporâneo e o fantástico.
