Shortly after, the first book of the "American Royals" series came out in 2019. This book was followed by three more novels in the series.
While McGee's newest book, "A Queen's Game," is similar to "American Royals," it is separate from the series.
"I was doing background research for the ‘American Royals’ series when I stumbled across the stories of Alix, Hélène, and May: three princesses at the end of the Victorian era whose lives became wildly entangled, as they were all at various points linked to the same three princes," McGee told Town & Country of her newest book.
"I immediately knew that this was my next project! It has everything that readers have come to expect from the American Royals series — drama, forbidden romance, and secrets — set against the glittering backdrop of nineteenth-century Europe," she also said.

But finally, she hits the jackpot," the description of the book begins.
"Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet," the description continues.

"From Here to the Great Unknown" is a highly anticipated memoir for fall 2024.
This book was begun by Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis Presley, before her death on Jan. 12, 2023.
After her passing, Lisa Marie's daughter, Riley Keough, took on the task of finishing her mother's story.
"Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley was never truly understood … until now. Before her death in 2023, she’d been working on a raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir for years, recording countless hours of breathtakingly vulnerable tape, which has finally been put on the page by her daughter, Riley Keough," a description on the book's website reads.
"Few people had the opportunity to know who my mom really was, other than being Elvis’s daughter," Keough said in a previous statement released by publisher Random House.
"I was lucky to have had that opportunity and working on preparing her autobiography for publication has been a privilege, albeit a bittersweet one," she also said. "I’m so excited to share my mom now, at her most vulnerable and most honest, and in doing so, I do hope that readers come to love my mom as much as I did."
This book was published on Oct. 8, 2024.
