When Red, White, and Royal Blue meets Below Deck…

To say Ricky is having a bad year is an understatement. All his friends have found their happily ever afters, but he’s discovered his boyfriend is the latest in a long line of men who cheat. When his best friends get married, Ricky swaps his shift with another flight attendant and heads to Sydney to get away, only for that plane to crash on takeoff, and while he’s recovering from his injuries, his landlord evicts him.

In need of a fresh start, Ricky buys a first class ticket to Ibiza with his life savings, and vows things will be different. Starting with his name. Ricky made the reservation, but it’s Adrian who’s going to lie in the sun, meet gorgeous men, and make better choices. It’s Adrian who’s going to have a fabulous time without losing his heart to the next pretty face. If he can fly without a panic attack. Sleeping pills help, but when he wakes in London being carried from the plane by a gorgeous man who then brings him to his private suite in the first class lounge, Adrian wonders if he’s woken up in a fairy tale. And when Ren asks Adrian to accompany him to the Maldives on his luxury yacht, Adrian is sure there’s a catch.

His Royal Highness Prince Henri Renard Sebastian de Montclair is no one’s fairy tale. A playboy prince who’s on all the sexiest men lists, he revels in fabulous parties, premium liquor, the latest fashions, and a carefully cultivated bad-boy image that often leaves his father repairing the damage. When the paparazzi catch Ren in a swoony kiss with his best friend Maurice instead of his fiancé, it’s one debauchery too far. With threats of rehab hanging over his head, Ren accepts his father’s punishment: bring the royal yacht from Ibiza to the Maldives. Without friends. Without alcohol. Without complaints.

Trouble finds him on board the plane leaving LA in the form of a stunning green-eyed redheaded man seated across from him. A thwarted attempt at the mile-high club leaves Ren wanting more, but when they land, he discovers there’s a lot more going on with Adrian than he initially thought. And for some reason, Ren isn’t willing to walk away without knowing more.

Note: Troubled Skies contains a rakishly handsome prince, a hero flight attendant with a troubled past, the luxury cruise of your dreams with fabulous food and destinations, forced proximity, one bed, and a swoony, romantic HEA. It is the third book in the Blue Skies series and is a complete standalone.
