The Royal Bodyguard by Lindsay Emory

The Royal Bodyguard

by Lindsay Emory

Let Lindsay Emory whisk you away on another romantic, glamorous and royal adventure in The Royal Bodyguard!

Filled with all the intrigue, romance and mystery that made readers fall in love with The Royal Runaway, this is perfect for fans of The Princess Diaries and The Royal We with a splash of James Bond and The Bourne Identity. Now optioned for film!

When Princess Caroline of Drieden of the Royal House Laurent eloped with a race car driver, she forfeited her royal title and her family.

Now a widow and exiled from Drieden, Caroline is working as a journalist, writing exposes under a pen name. When, one day, she catches sight of her sister Thea's ex-fiance, she's stunned - Christian is supposed to be dead. Here could be the scoop of the century.

But Caroline's plans to uncover Christian's deception are foiled by the arrival of Hugh Konnor - her former bodyguard and Caroline's first - unrequited - love. When Hugh stubbornly refuses to leave her side, Caroline can't deny they make a good team.

As they unravel a web of deception that could bring down the House of Laurent, Caroline must decide how far she's willing to go to protect a family she feels deserted her - and whether the man who swore to guard her body can safely hold her heart.

'Captivating! Full of twists and turns, The Royal Runaway will keep you guessing and cheering for a Royal happily-ever-after!' Geneva Lee

With being a fan of The Royal Runaway, I was over the moon when I heard about Caroline, Theodora's estranged sister, getting her own story in The Royal Bodyguard.  It didn't quite hit home with me like it did with Theodora's story, but I loved that we get to know Caroline a bit more and just their family, overall.
I'm becoming quite the fan of Lindsay's writing, she pulls you in from the very beginning. And even though I wasn't loving it as much as I hoped, I was engaged the whole time.
