Blurb: Welcome to their kingdom...
I never thought I'd step foot in Royal Manor again. But four years later, here I am...back to finish my senior year at Royal Hearts Academy.
And forced to face Jace Covington. My first friend. First crush. First kiss. The one I left behind.
Only—he isn't the same boy I gave my heart to.
This new Jace is as cruel as he is gorgeous. And he's determined to make my life a living hell. Along with the rest of his glorified family and crew of tyrants.
They expect me to worship the ground they walk on like everyone else, but I'd rather eat dirt.
If Jace Covington wants me gone...he'll have to try harder. Because I've never been the kind of girl to play by the rules.
WARNING: Royal Hearts Academy is a New Adult/High School series of standalones filled with drama, a touch of angst, and boys who are bad to the bone.
This series is recommended for mature readers due to graphic language and sexual content.
 
Excerpt: “Is that why you wore this sexy little shirt tonight?” His warm breath tickles the side of my neck. “Hoping to get my attention.”
“No.”
That earns me a husky chuckle. “Too bad.” He presses his lips against my throat. “Because it’s working. You have all my attention.” He walks his fingers down my torso. “Question is…what are you going to do with it?”
   
About the Author: Ashley Jade loves to tackle different genres and tropes within romance. Her first loves are New Adult Romance and Romantic Suspense, but she also writes everything in between including: contemporary romance, erotica, and dark romance.
Her characters are flawed and complex, and chances are you will hate them before you fall head over heels in love with them.
She’s a die-hard lover of oxford commas, em dashes, music, coffee, and anything thought provoking…except for math.
Books make her heart beat faster and writing makes her soul come alive. She’s always read books growing up and scribbled stories in her journal, and after having a strange dream one night; she decided to just go for it and publish her first series.
It was the best decision she ever made.
If she’s not paying off student loan debt, working, or writing a novel—you can usually find her listening to music, hanging out with her readers online, and pondering the meaning of life.
Check out her amazon page and Facebook page for future novels. She recently became hip and joined Twitter, so you can find her there, too. She loves connecting with her readers—they make her world go round’.
 


There’s certain things I love in the books I read. I love a slow burn, i love a book that has me questioning things and coming up with my own theories (which usually turn out to be wrong), I love a man that I love to hate and hate to love and I absolutely adore a strong female character that can win me over within seconds (which to be honest is very rare). Luckily for me Ms Jade didn’t let me down with Cruel Prince. Everything about this book is exactly what I wanted and what I’ve come to expect from this author. The characters feel like real people. They have layers and layers that make them who they are. They have flaws and insecurities, they’ve made mistakes and choices that have helped shape them into who they are and even though I didn’t always agree with them, they did make me connect with the characters even more. 

I went into this expecting to fall head over heels for Jace within seconds. The super hot but standoffish, troubled guy that every boy wants to be and every girl wants to be with. You know the ones, the assholes that attract you like a moth to a flame, the ones you hate but can’t get enough of. That’s my weakness right there. So it was quite the surprise when it was Dylan who won me over first. She is everything! Her life hasn’t been easy, her past, her present and everything in between has thrown obstacles and betrayal at her but she’s still standing and still fighting back and I loved that about her. She’s strong but there’s a softness to her that draws you in and I found her extremely easy to relate to. Jace...I don’t even know where to start with Jace Covington. This guy has me so conflicted. I think I was so firmly on Dylan’s ‘side’ that I was really determined not let him sway me or win me over. I did pretty well before I eventually gave up the fight and started to see the bigger picture. And once I did, I fell for him and I fell hard. Once you crack his outer shell, be prepared to lose your heart to him. He’s not at all what I was expecting. 

This is the first stand alone book in the Royal Hearts Academy series and it introduces the other Covington’s whose books we’ll be getting. This book is filled with brilliant characters and some really funny banter. But don’t let that fool you because this book made me feel allllll the feels. All of them. There are parts that are emotional, that gave me that dreaded lump in my throat and that turned my opinions on some characters upside down. 

Cruel Prince is another fantastic book from Ms Jade and gets this new series off to a brilliant start. I can’t wait for more from the Covington siblings.
