Emilia Lancaster is the royal family’s dirty little secret.

Born the illegitimate daughter of a duke, for twenty years she’s lived as a commoner… despite the regal blood running through her veins. But when the entire royal family is killed in a deadly attack, the line of succession swiftly changes course. With her ailing father appointed king and no legitimate heirs in sight, Emilia is pulled from the shadows and thrust into a destiny she never wanted.

If this were a fairy tale, the palace would be paradise. In reality, with a father she barely knows on the throne, a deadly assassin still on the loose, and enemies around every gilded corridor corner — the callous, captivating Lord Carter Thorne chief among them — it feels more like a prison to Emilia. One filled with unattainable expectations, unfamiliar customs, and undesirable suitors.

They want her to behave like a good little girl.

They want her to put on her glittering crown and keep her mouth shut.

They’re about to be disappointed.

She may have agreed to be their princess…

But she’s no one’s puppet. 

DIRTY HALO is a royal romance about an ordinary girl who inherits an extraordinary legacy. Filled with forbidden love, murderous plots, and machiavellian intrigue, it is recommended for mature readers only. It is the first book in the FORBIDDEN ROYALS TRILOGY.




Dirty Halo is the start to Julie Johnson's Forbidden Royals Trilogy, the story of Emilia Lancaster as her entire life takes a drastic turn. Being a princess sounds like a fairy tale for some girls, but for Emilia it's her worst nightmare. 

Emilia was a brilliant heroine and I loved her attitude that was present through the entire book. She didn't lose any of her fight, even after being thrown into such a difficult position and instead we got to see her find an even stronger backbone. I thought it was really admirable and it had me adoring her character. 

From the moment I started this book I was completely captivated and found myself even ignoring part of the Super Bowl just to finish it. Emilia had such an interesting tale to tell and the craziness never stopped. There was murder, and nefarious plots uncovered, and one hell of a sexual tension brewing with one very sexy Lord. Honestly this book is like no other that I've read before. Not only did I love Emilia, but I was pleasantly surprised that the evil stepsister I was expecting, was instead a fun loving new stepsister that I thought was a great addition to this book. 

But that ending! I'm going to need the next book ASAP.
