“With witty banter, intense chemistry, and panty-melting sex scenes, Crowne of Lies is a total winner.”
--Siobhan Davis, USA Today bestselling author
Crowne of Lies, an all-new delicious and do-not-miss marriage of convenience romance by New York Times bestselling author CD Reiss, available now!
Logan Crowne needs one year from Ella.
Twelve months living in his house, holding his hand, wearing his ring on her finger, and in exchange, she’ll get her father’s company in the divorce settlement.
They have one year to convince his skeptical parents that they’re happily in love, and he’s settled enough to run Crowne Industries.
Ella wants the company badly enough to live with a man who will never love her. She’ll sleep in his room and kiss him for show.
Her heart may melt whenever he’s around, and his touch may ignite a fire inside her, but surrender will break her heart.
She’s sure she can last a year without giving him her body.
She’s wrong.

About CD Reiss
CD Reiss is a New York Times bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn't pick up she's at the well hauling buckets.
Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master's degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere but it did give her a big enough ego to write novels.
She's frequently referred to as the Shakespeare of Smut which is flattering but hasn't ever gotten her out of chopping that cord of wood.
If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.

“Biggest lie ever told for the two biggest lie-tellers ever.”
I love Ass-Backwards stories of fake marriages, where tension and stress strings stretch taut, and almost definitely we know the couple will be in a quandary when real feelings seep in to make a mess. I always feel like a smug reader with a I told you so shit- eating grin by the end of the story.
Pick up any book by Reiss and you're guaranteed that elusive Tingle.
“Let’s hurt each other. Let’s hurt each other so bad we walk out of this thing on broken legs, screaming in pain. When it’s over, I want to be praying for death and wishing I could do it all over again.”
See what I mean, it's going to be raw and hard, chafing and hurting but it's going to feel so good!🥰
When these two faves of mine meet, I'm in for a delightful treat that makes me giddy with excitement. Reiss knows how to make the tropes her own. She gives new meaning to the age old, possessive claim of alphas, that fall flat in other books, but acquire a new dimension and depth in her skilled hands.
When swoon-worthy Logan Crowne says to Estella Papillion “Mine,” he said, closing his eyes. “You’re mine.”
He MEANS IT. It's not just words lifting like plumes of smoke and drifting in the air, vanishing seconds after utterance.
They transfer from Logan's mouth, poured into Ella's heart, with a stopover in mine. It's not a simple claim, it's an surprising exclamation and then acceptance. Very momentous occasion in their relationship.
Ella is talented protégé of Papillion legacy, frustrated, vengeful and trapped. I think add clueless and misguided in her anger too. It often triggers her rebellion, making her reckless.
She has to cross paths with Logan Crowne, it's not per chance encounter. It's sought out meticulously and deliberately by him, complete with cut and dry contract & black and white clauses.
"our contract was built on known lies and unknowable truths."
He's suave, sharp and competitive, any woman would jump at the chance to be the one to occupy his home, with slippers by the door and open her legs for him in bed.
It befalls upon ella to make him wear Santa Fuzzy socks and transfer some of her warmth to him.
As is predicted, it gets super emotional, super fast and both get super confused. Regular chants of It means nothing becomes their daily mantra, but somehow bodies block out that as noise, skin igniting in each others proximity. Its getting hot in here folks!!🔥
"I was in a tunnel, and he was the oncoming train. He’d crush me or he’d put on the brakes. I was too deep in the shaft to run."
Christine has embellished it with multi faceted crystals, In rainbow of emotions.
I want to see that bejeweled GAC wall,I wanna wear Papillion vintage gown, I wanna sit on the roof of the building, spray paint the billboard and then I want to be kissed and owned by Logan.
Naughty was the wrong word for Logan. He was a completely and wonderfully debauched demon.
He makes my heart jump a beat, my knees go weak and skin flush.
Ella is a warrior without weapons. A princess who needed a champion.
I aspire to be her- genuine, authentic and pristine.
Christine has created this Crowne stead full of iron willed men who love completely, rule ruthlessly and support unconditionally. In short Perfect Men
This series will keep on giving, I'll be counting days till the next one.
