Overview

What if America had a royal family? If you can't get enough of Harry and Meghan or Kate and William, meet American princesses Beatrice and Samantha.

Two princesses vying for the ultimate crown.
Two girls vying for the prince's heart.
This is the story of the American royals.

When America won the Revolutionary War, its people offered General George Washington a crown. Two and a half centuries later, the House of Washington still sits on the throne. Like most royal families, the Washingtons have an heir and a spare. A future monarch and a backup battery. Each child knows exactly what is expected of them. But these aren't just any royals. They're American.

As Princess Beatrice gets closer to becoming America's first queen regnant, the duty she has embraced her entire life suddenly feels stifling. Nobody cares about the spare except when she's breaking the rules, so Princess Samantha doesn't care much about anything, either . . . except the one boy who is distinctly off-limits to her. And then there's Samantha's twin, Prince Jefferson. If he'd been born a generation earlier, he would have stood first in line for the throne, but the new laws of succession make him third. Most of America adores their devastatingly handsome prince . . . but two very different girls are vying to capture his heart.

The duty. The intrigue. The Crown. New York Times bestselling author Katharine McGee imagines an alternate version of the modern world, one where the glittering age of monarchies has not yet faded--and where love is still powerful enough to change the course of history.

"The lives of the American royal family will hook you in the very first pages and never let go. Relatable, believable, fantastical, aspirational, and completely addictive." --Sara Shepard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars and Perfectionists series

  • This book is a MUST READ

    Alessandra S. - 5 years 6 months ago

    The story follows four women and their lives which are all intertwined. They go through the struggles of growing up, heartbreak, and having to be someone they aren’t. We follow Beatrice (next in line to the throne), her sister Samantha (wild princess), Samantha’s best friend Nina (A commoner), and Daphne (the literal worst). The idea of having no president but a monarchy is so interesting. I love that President George Washington was actually King George. The history of the book was not lost on me. Although how America became a monarchy wasn’t very touched on but throughout the book they would throw in some talk about a past president or ruler. I’m a sucker for a YA and romance and this book had both. The end of the book really left you with a cliffhanger! I’m so happy the second one is out. #BannedBook

  • Perfect Summer Teen Drama

    Definition of #SummerReading! Loved this book. A riveting plot centered around what America would look like if George Washington had become King instead of President. I fell in love with the characters and cannot wait for the second book in the series to release this Fall 2020. Highly recommend!
