Nathan Davenport, CEO of the Davenport empire, is my complete opposite. He hates chocolate. I'm a size sixteen dessert chef. He only wears black. I love glitter and pink. He's grumpy, while I look on the brighter side of life. Too bad his piercing eyes, and high cheekbones, haunt my dreams.

Story
I’ve spent my life putting others first. So when my father runs for New York City mayor—on a promise to take down the city’s most notorious crime family—I do what I always do: push my own dreams aside to help him win. Until I wind up at the wrong party. Trapped in a bedroom with Romolo Ferraro—the dangerous, merciless youngest son of the man my father has sworn to destroy. He terrifies me. He fascinates me. Six foot four and covered in tattoos, he’s everything I should avoid.

Story
You want to know the secret to everlasting happiness? Never fall in love. That was the wisdom my father imparted to us James boys after our mom died, and it’s a piece of advice that’s served me well. Until dear old Dad asks me for a favor over Sunday brunch. No big deal, right? I love making my old man happy. Except this “favor” is a lot more complicated than picking up his dry cleaning. Dad wants me to marry and provide a few heirs for the James empire, and he’s even done me the courtesy of handpicking my bride-to-be. Lucky me.

Story
My new neighbor happens to be the grumpiest billionaire in Whispers, but his gravelly voice and golden brown eyes make this city girl weak at the knees. When my life imploded and I lost my job and my fiancé in a matter of weeks, I didn’t know what my next step should be. Then I received an inheritance that would change my life forever. Moving to a small town and renovating the old farmhouse was a step in the right direction. But bickering with my startling good looking, yet much older neighbor was not part of my plan.

I never thought I’d be a runaway bride. But when it came down to it, I just couldn’t marry the wrong man. So, I ran. And somehow, I ended up in Star Falls, Colorado—stranded, no luggage, no plan—in a wedding dress with a past I’d rather forget. Fate lands me in the only available rental in town, a cozy little cabin… right next door to Byron Miller, the brooding billionaire who wants nothing to do with me. Or this town.

I made a deal with my worst enemy. Now, he won’t let me go. I had a plan: sign a contract, escape to Ibiza, and rebuild my life. It didn’t include Harrison King. A British billionaire with a sharp mind, a sharper tongue, and a reputation as ruthless as his business empire. He’s the reason my world went up in flames. The last person I’d ever trust. But he offers me a way out. One that comes with fine print and even finer temptation… and I can’t afford to say no. Now, I’m in his world. Under his roof. Following his rules.

If forced to choose, we could lose it all.

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

The first time I met Weston, he was my psychologist. I never planned to see him again. We lived in two different worlds. He was responsible. I was reckless. He was the good guy. They'd labeled me as out-of-control. He was harmony on a warm beach day. I was the hurricane that erupted through. But one night, I called him to rescue me. And he did more than that.

Story
Still married. Those words change everything. Now my should-be ex-husband, Ramsey Stockton, the former pro football star turned felon and hero who left this town—and me—behind years ago, is at my door offering me a deal with the devil. If I let him stay and play his wife again for ninety days, he’ll give me a quiet divorce and his family ranch—the one my inn is on. When I scoff at the idea, he offers a million-dollar bonus to help my business float through this rough patch, but only if I’m his.

I love the palpable tension between Aurelia "Aura," Princess of Verenza, and Ryot Davenport from the onset. Oh, the things I was hoping would happen in that alley. I'd say I'm ashamed, but I'd be lying. 😘
While the twist wasn't a surprise, I love that we got to see Ryot and understand his first marriage better. We also got to see him try to deny his attraction while she pushed his boundaries. I found it entertaining.
So, back to the twist. I won't give anything away, but seriously, people? Ugh. Some people are such idiots! That said, there was a smaller twist that I didn't expect.
I liked Aura most of the time, but she did get a bit too whiny, especially towards the end. I can understand some of the internal conflict, but I wasn't keen on how she handled it.
I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrators are the growly Shane East and sweet and sassy Ava Lucas. Being in duet narration means their characters maintain the same level of energy and voice throughout. I say it every time. I love duet narration! I also love these narrators and their accents. 🩷🎧🩷

Ryot and Aurelia met in a club when she was trying to escape unwanted advances from another man. The attraction between them was palpable and instant but when Ryot asked her to go home with him she declined. Neither expected to see each other again but fate had other plans.
Aurelia is a princess about to enter into a political marriage was at the club to have some fun and perhaps lose her v card to a man of her choosing before entering what she knows will be a lack-luster marriage. The next day she is called into her father, the King's presence and told that there have been threats made against her life and that her new personal head of security is none other than the sexy Ryot she met the night before.
Being in close proximity to each other proves difficult without acting on their mutual attraction but Ryot steadfastly refuses to coss the line although it's becoming harder to resit the temptation. After numerous attempts on her life Ryot decides to move himself and Aurelia to a safehouse where their close proximity makes the temptation even harder to resist.
Aurelia breaks off her arranged marriage and Ryot purposes a marriage of convenience this ould help her country and solve his problem with his grandfather Arthur who is determined to see his unwed grandsons wed. But when he and Aurelia go on their honeymoon danger strikes again and this time it effects not only them but Ryot's family members too.
Their journey to their HEA is not smooth as both of them refuse to admit their true feelings for each other. When they finally do it beautiful. This series by L.Steele is one of my go to listens and I can't wait for Tyler's story!

♡ bodyguard x princess romance

♡ who is threatening her??
𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑻𝑯𝑶𝑼𝑮𝑯𝑻𝑺:
If you’re in the mood for a spicy audiobook, I would recommend this one! We follow a princess who ends up wanting the one man she can’t have: her bodyguard. Which is fine because she’s engaged to a prince for the sake of her country, but it turns out he wants her too.
There’s danger in this book which causes a lot of tension and kicks her bodyguard’s protectiveness into overdrive. You’re also trying to figure out who the danger is and that reveal took me be surprise!
The spice was often and hawt. We also had some really sweet moments as well that made me kick my feet. My only issue with the book was the reason for the third act breakup. I’ve accepted that third act breakups are kind of inevitable in books, but the “I need time away from you because I love you so much it scares me,” reason just seems silly to me. We did have a HEA that I loved though!
The narrators did an amazing job. We love a man with an accent and the female narrator did such a great job bringing her character to life!

This was an amazing ride that I never wanted to end. I absolutely adored Aurelia & Ryot. (Seriously I need more!) The fact that a little mystery/death threats went on behind the love story pushed this one in 5 star status for me. The spice is SPICING & will surely not disappoint. 🔥🔥🔥 Getting to know the characters as well underneath the spice & angst, truly made me fall in love with them.

🎧 Audio:
Overall, quality-wise, very mixed. It’s a dual-narration with excellent voices and voice actors, however the male parts had poor sound quality—which especially stood out against the female’s stellar sound quality. He sounded as though he was under water? Or … something like that. I’m not really sure what prompts this particular issue. Usually I hear it in amateur-made productions, however, this one seems professionally produced in all other aspects, so it’s baffling. 3 stars.
Interesting dynamics!

A bodygaurd with a princess combo is always swoon worthy. Aurelia and Ryot were definitely unable to stay away from one another after an almost one night stand. Action packed romance with traumatic pasts that MCs are able to work through to find their happy end.
The narrators in this audiobook were phenomenal. I can’t get enough of Shane East, he could read me a grocery list and I’d be a happy camper.
A wonderful narration of a classic bodyguard princess romance!
