Her duty is to the crown. Her heart has other plans.
Princess Freya has spent her life following the rules—until a sharp-tongued, infuriatingly handsome American bodyguard turns her world upside down. With an unprecedented election threatening to shake the monarchy, she’s determined to prove she’s the right ruler for Candora. The last thing she needs is a distraction—especially one who challenges her at every turn and sees right through her carefully composed facade. But the more time she spends with Elliot, the harder it is to ignore the spark between them.
Elliot never planned on playing protector to a princess, let alone one who is stubborn, witty, and far too tempting for his own good. His job is simple: keep Freya safe, keep her out of trouble, and—most importantly—keep things professional. But between royal scandals, political chaos, and a growing attraction that refuses to be ignored, maintaining his distance is getting harder by the day. And when a shocking turn of events threatens everything they both hold dear, Elliot is faced with an impossible choice: duty or desire.
With the future of the monarchy at stake and the world watching their every move, Freya and Elliot must decide—stick to the plan, or risk it all for a love that defies the rules.
