Stylist Elle Olsen lives in fear of someone discovering her secret identity as Princess Eloise. But the men who killed her entire family in a bloody coup have done just that andnow they’re coming for her. All Elle wants is to disappear into anonymity again, but the panty-melting billionaire who kidnaps her isn’t about to let that happen.
On the society pages, smoking hot financier Dominick Rasmussen is one of the world’s most eligible bachelors, but there’s more to him than meets the eye. As a secret resistance fighter, his one goal is to get Princess Eloise on the throne and restore the monarchy. The biggest problem? His stubborn and sexy undercover princess has no interest in ever wearing a tiara again.
Their goals couldn’t be more opposed, but neither Dom nor Elle can deny the attraction bringing them closer together. As the stakes rise and danger increases, they are forced to choose between love and country…
This book is full of action, a steamy romance, a princess and a super hot bodyguard.
I liked Elle right from the start, I mean she has a dream job being a stylist and she has the attitude of someone you wish was your bff. Dominick comes off as your sexy playboy billonaire and I loved him for that but things between them changed so fast you can't fully believe this little fantasy.
Elle is a princess who scaped her kingdom and a certain death and who is not interested in getting back. She left it all behing and going back to a country that betrayed her is not on her to do list.
Dominick is a loyal guard. He has spend his entire life working to get Princess Eloise back on her throne. He created a whole persona for this and is almost there... if only Elle would see reason.

I loved this book from page 1. Elle is such a likeable character and she surprised me in more than one ocassion. While the story progesses you see why she doesn't want the throne back, after her father got killed she was alone with no one to help her or support her. Elle is nothing but a strong woman, learning to survive alone after living in a castle and she has a big sense of duty as well. She knows her life isn't really hers but of her people even though that might cost her everything.
Dom also is so much more than meets eye. He has lost as much as Elle and he fought as much to get where he is, to make sure that everything he believes in wins.
The chemestry between the two is amazing. They can't keep their hands off each other and at the same time is impossible to see eye to eye. But when their needs and their duties come they have to chose once and for all...
This book kept me guessing all the time. Is full of action, spies and secrets. The ending had me at the edge of my seat.The romance comes fast but at a good pace for the story and both characters evolve with the plot.
I can't wait to read the next books in the series!
