Not yet published
Expected 20 Apr 27The Princess Diaries meets The Bodyguard in this sparkling novel of royalty and romance, secrets and spies, from New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord.
Rosie’s name is synonymous with loyalty and protection. Part of an elite security training program for teenage recruits, her instincts are great. Her impulse control? Not so much. After an assignment gone wrong, she’s shipped off to Europe on probation. If she messes up, she can’t come back. Her job? To go undercover as the bodyguard for the long-lost prince of Marilova. There’s just one problem: Rosie already knows him.
Nick’s life has been a whirlwind ever since his identity was uncovered. Now he’s been thrust into the spotlight as heir of Marilova, and tensions have never been higher. The Queen will spare no expense to keep him safe—including hiring a bodyguard. Except, Nick doesn’t want Rosie’s protection. They worked together years ago. He even saved her life once. But he has his reasons for keeping his distance.
As a plot against the royals unfolds, Rosie and Nick are thrust into an intricate web of secret alliances and courtly games as they unravel who wants Nick off the throne. But tensions have always existed between Nick and Rosie, and she wonders if she can protect the prince while also protecting her heart.
