She’s royalty. He’s the wrong guy. But he’s the only one who can keep her safe. Get ready for a red-hot new romance from New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden.
How do you protect a princess?
Step one: Do the job. Make her the priority.
Constantine
Leos can’t believe his new assignment. He’s supposed to protect a
princess. An actual, no BS royal princess. Sure, she spent her whole
life in the US, and she’s only just discovered that she’s royalty, but,
still…this isn’t his typical type of case. He’s used to bad guys who
fight dirty and hard. He’s not prepared for…her. A
gorgeous princess with dark eyes, lush lips, and a deceptive delicacy
that makes him want to take on the world in order to protect her.
Step two: Stay close to the client. Intimately close.
Seemingly
overnight, Juliet Laurent went from being a nobody to being the lost
princess who now has her face splashed across social media. The new fame
comes with danger because someone seems intent on making sure that
Juliet never gets to wear her promised crown. She’s scared and
desperate, and Juliet doesn’t know who to trust in this crazy royal
life…
Enter the new bodyguard.
Big, buff, and dangerous. A man who isn’t scared of anything. Just the
man she needs. A man she desperately wants.
Constantine
promises to protect her from every threat. His job is to stand between
her and danger. With him, Juliet feels safe. And with him, Juliet also
feels the stirring of a fierce desire that catches her by surprise. How
can she want a stranger so much, so desperately? But when the threats
continue and Constantine shields her again and again, her feelings for
him just grow stronger. Forced into close proximity, the attraction
rages past her control and his…
Step three: Protect the princess. Don’t fall for her.
Constantine
knows a guy like him won’t ever get a happy ending, but he will do
whatever it takes to make sure that Juliet stays safe. Because Juliet
doesn’t need a Prince Charming. She needs a bodyguard who will eliminate
every threat and who will destroy anyone who tries to hurt her. In
other words, this princess needs the big, bad wolf. Luckily, Constantine
has always excelled at being bad.

4.5 STARS
This is a good story with really good main characters. The first meeting between Juliet and Constantine was quite an unusual and almost funny one. Misunderstandings abound between them. Another unusual thing is the bold rescue that Constantine pulls off when she needed it. Can anyone else say Cool ? This is first but definitely not the last time he will be there for her.
The heat between Juliet and Constantine is blazing almost instantaneously, no matter how they fought it. To be honest, they didn't fight against it all that hard because the connection was already there. It made me want to know how everything was going to turn out for them.
Holden, was Constantine's new partner and he was not only skilled but hilarious at times too! He made me smile more than once.
Alexandre was the Counsellor who was temporarily in power for the king in Lancaden. Talk about a shady kind of guy and not feeling any trust for him and his motives.
You think you've got it all figured out? Nice try but you're probably wrong because there are yet plenty of surprises in store for the reader.
Did I like how the story ended? That would be a big Yes.
