The Demon's Princess
(2010)(The first book in the Otherworldly series)
A novel by Jessie Colter (Jessica Coulter Smith)
In this New Adult Historical Romance, Lucinda Hayworth finds herself living day to day life in Atlanta, in a distant cousin's body - in 1896. Deciding to blend in while she tries to find a way back to her time, she goes through life as Lucinda Caden... a wealthy debutante. At a ball, she meets Alexander, a prince visiting from a small unknown kingdom in the Atlantic. While Lucinda Caden may be from an influential family, she doesn't feel worthy of Alex's attention - especially knowing that she's really just a modern girl of middle class status trapped in another time.
Alexander Asterot is precisely what his name implies --- the son of a demon. Not just any demon, but the Prince of Demons. While he may be known as Prince Alexander Asterot, no one knows where his home truly lies. His father rules part of the underworld, but Alex rules the small island of Carpus, a gateway between earth and hell. His dark looks appeal to most young women, but there is only one who draws his attention -- Lucinda. Or so she thinks...
When Lucinda discovers Alex is more than what he says, she still wants to be with him. Her parents, however, have other ideas. Shoving her in the direction of a long-term family friend, Jonathan, they forbid her from seeing the prince. In an attempt to escape the unwanted attentions of Jonathan Statton, she meets the Earl of Leamont, Benton Richards. While she will always love Alex, Lucinda must decide if she will wait for him forever, or if she will give herself a chance at happiness with someone else.
Circumstances will force Lucinda to choose - the demon prince who holds her heart, or the man who treats her like a princess.
