He’s the royal bodyguard. She’s the royal nanny. The annoyingly hot attraction that simmers between them—that’s a royal pain.

James Hunter has made a tactical error. His new role as protection officer to Prince Magnus of Norway was supposed to be an exciting change. Instead he’s marooned on a royal estate in the middle of nowhere charged with chasing after demon children and dodging the machinations of meddling staff. And the crowning jewel in this little drama—the children’s nanny is none other than Laila Bruset. The woman whose heart he broke. The woman who still holds his.
When Laila took the job as a nanny for the Norwegian royal children in order to be closer to her ailing grandmother in Oslo, the last thing she expected was to have her life turned upside down—again. But as much as James gets on her nerves, he's also getting under her skin, and the tension between them sizzles just as devastatingly as before.
As undeniable sparks turn James and Laila’s battle royal into a more serious game of hearts, nanny and bodyguard will have to decide just how much they’re willing to risk for a second chance at love.

      This juicy if underdeveloped contemporary from bestseller Halle brings together characters she introduced in The Wild Heir and The Royals Next Door. Scottish bodyguard James Hunter decides not to follow his employers, Prince Eddie and Duchess Monica, when they relocate from England to America. He takes a job near Oslo with another royal couple, Prince Magnus and Princess Ella of Norway, to protect their offspring. Unfortunately, he does not realize his former coworker Laila Bruset, with whom he had a passionate affair that ended badly, is nanny to these royal children. Laila returned home to Norway to be close to the grandmother who brought her up and does not want to get involved with handsome James again after he broke her heart. James hasn’t resolved the commitment issues that drove the couple apart the first time, which makes his renewed romantic pursuit of Laila come across as selfish. Both the leads feel somewhat flat, but the sexual chemistry between them is intense. Still, it will take a royal intervention to get them from hooking up to happily ever after. Fans of Lucy Parker and Sarah Mayberry will appreciate the aristocratic milieu but long for a little more depth.
