A Royal Life

Rozalie

Book 1

Cover of a book titled "A Royal Life Ropes and Lies" by Scarlett Marie, featuring a fairy sitting among leafless trees under a starry night sky.
  • Unlike the fairytales, Prince Sean and Princess Stephanie were never supposed to fall in love and live happily ever after, but they did try to. Now, three years after their messy and public break-up, their kingdoms are about to go to war. Sean could potentially stop the war if Stephanie reclaims her title as Princess – a title she gave up because of him.

    When Sean moves to Rozalie, the one place he is forbidden to be, to find Stephanie and convince her to become a princess again, he meets Matt (the best-looking guy he’s ever met in his life). Sean doesn’t need anything else complicating his relationship with Stephanie, but things become tricky when Matt proves to be the man of Sean’s dreams.

    Despite how Sean might feel about Matt, he has no hopes that it’ll last. What Sean doesn’t know, though, is that he can save his kingdom and live happily ever after with the love of his life. He just has to be willing to risk everything – including his own life – in the most unlikely way.

Ropes and Lies

Book 2

  • There's a good chance Prince Sean is going to become king. So that's what they say. If you ask Sean the answer is, 'No, it’s not going to happen,' because he knows becoming king will start a war. But life's plans don't always follow the smoothest course.

    Sean is aware of this, but he's more worried about what life has planned for his relationship with Matt - a young, handsome man whom Sean has recently fallen in love with. Sean would very much like to keep Matt a part of his life, but their relationship is already feeling the strains from the royal life Sean must lead.

    It doesn't help that Princess Stephanie (Sean's ex and competition for the throne) keeps popping into Sean's life at the most unexpected times. She for whatever reason won't leave him alone. However, she has good reason. Unlike Sean, Stephanie knows their future depends on them using their power of the five elements to defeat an incoming threat.

    Unless they work together, they and everything they love in their world will perish.

About

As a true born creative, Scarlett has spent her whole life dabbling in the arts and craft, only to find her feet in the world of words whereby she has spent over ten years making stories come alive.

Her time and energy has been mainly spent on the series, A Royal Life, of which she started drafting when she was fifteen.

The life of a writer is not often documented, so in 2025, Scarlett began a podcast, Diary of a Writer, to help people understand what it’s like to live a creative life, fiddling with words all the time.
