Royal Escape - E-book - ePub

Beautiful and witty, Princess Elena was supposed to live the fairytale life. Instead, her marriage is in ruins and her in-laws resent her glowing popularity. All Elena wants is to spend time with her two sons and be a good mother. The murder of her divorce attorney complicates her plans. The Queen, her mother-in-law, withholds settlement on a trust fund and expects Elena to give marriage one more chance.
That means keeping a low profile and following all orders from the royal family and staff. Elena resists the control and struggles to separate her children from a system that reinforces inequality. In turn, the staff separates her from her sons in the name of security. For Elena and others, being a member of the family has become a royal trap - imposing lifelong limits on careers, daily activities and what one can say or do in any public setting.
To raise her children as independent individuals, she must fend off paparazzi, staff and in-laws.
