A former Marine bodyguard and a modern princess. When her country implodes, can they pick up the pieces and find love together? Americans don’t care that Kala Abbas is the princess of a small faraway country. She only needs private security when she travels with her high-profile parents. In Las Vegas, that is sexy but off-limits Anders Davis, bodyguard. But for this trip, she’s on her own and plans to enjoy her anonymity by playing poker, sunbathing, and not fantasizing about Anders. After some bad luck, Anders Davis isn’t going to turn down a royal contract guarding Princess Kala. It might be the kick in the butt his professional life needs. Even if the beautiful princess doesn’t want private security crashing her solo vacation, he’s going to follow through on the job. For years they’ve denied the desire that flares whenever they cross paths, keeping their interactions strictly professional. But everything changes when devastating events in Kala’s homeland leave her marooned in Las Vegas without funds or friends. Anders’s loyalty will be tested and their attachment to one another will go from forbidden flirtation to so much more when he risks everything to save her life. Love is its own reward. A forbidden relationship between an ex-military bodyguard and a princess. Royal Reward has a happily ever after ending for two over-thirty characters. Steam, action, and intrigue give this royal romance an extra kick. *Please note this book was previously published at Vegas Reward by Michelle Donn.
