When Prince Josquin de Marigny swept struggling single mom Sarah McInnes into a limo, he revealed a secret. Sarah's father had been in line for the Valmont throne -- and now her son was the heir! The brooding, blue-eyed prince promised Sarah everything she'd ever dreamed of if she would remain in Carramer -- except his heart.... Baffled and bewildered by the sense of homecoming, Sarah was torn. Josquin had given her a new family, but he'd also investigated her past, lied to bring her to Carramer and he'd be regent for her son.

From han-file: Her skin was white as snow. Her hair as black as ebony. Her lips...darn near purple! But before the freezing beauty could explain to Zach Prescott how she'd wound up on his doorstep during a snowstorm in only a wedding dress, she fainted. His seven pint-size charges insisted the mystery woman was Snow White. But their uncle, savvy CEO Zach Prescott, sure knew better. Snow White was a fairy tale. Sabrina White was living, breathing reality. And a runaway bride. He told himself his curiosity about her was only natural. Their kisses, the result of comfort...and close quarters. Because theirs could never be a storybook ending. He was nobody's prince. Or was he? [English publication via Renta!](https://www.ebookrenta.com/renta/sc/frm/item/81774/)

STARTING WITH A KISS [Taken from FictionDB:] 'How can I ever hope to attract the man of my dreams when he has never looked at me that way?' Abigail Trent had never intended to be 30 and still single. So when her colleague Dr. Greg Hastings offered to help her transform from prim-and-proper physician to irresistible temptress, Abigail couldn't refuse. But she never expected that with just one kiss, Greg would make her feel so desirable and special. For the first time in Abigail's life, she was keenly aware of the sensations and longings a man's touch could evoke. Suddenly, she began to hope that what had started out as a Cinderella-esque fantasy could turn into something much more...that maybe Greg was the Prince Charming she'd been waiting for all her life to give her innocence, and her heart.
