The royal Windsor secret : a novel
(Book)

"Cleo Davenport has heard the whispers. Told she was an orphan, she knows the rumor that her father is none other than the Prince of Wales, heir to the British throne. And at her childhood home at Cairo's Shepheard's Hotel, where royals, rulers, and the wealthy live, they even call her "the princess." But her life is upended when her very proper aunt whisks her away to London to make her debut. Cleo loathes being confined to a ballroom, and she longs for independence as a jewelry designer for Cartier, far away from the rules of society. But she cannot move forward until she finds out about her past. After the chaos of Edward VIII's abdication, Cleo travels to France, where her search takes a shocking turn into the world of the Parisian demimonde, and a high-class courtesan whose scandalous affair with the young Prince of Wales threatened to bring down the British monarchy long before anyone had heard of Wallis Simpson."--Back cover.
