Twisted Games is a bodyguard x princess romance. Here, Rhys Larsen, an ex-Navy SEAL, is appointed as Princess Bridget’s bodyguard until her original bodyguard returns to duty.
It was supposed to be a temporary arrangement. A temporary job for Rhys and a stoic bodyguard to put up with, for Bridget. But their dynamic is changing slowly with each day together. The supposed relationship between the employee and employer is changing. So, what happens when his protection turns into a protective instinct he can’t name? When, the need to keep her close is no longer only limited to her safety?
Twisted Games – Blurb
Stoic, broody, and arrogant, elite bodyguard Rhys Larsen has two rules: 1) Protect his clients at all costs 2) Do not become emotionally involved. Ever.
He has never once been tempted to break those rules…until her.
Bridget von Ascheberg. A princess with a stubborn streak that matches his own and a hidden fire that reduces his rules to ash. She’s nothing he expected and everything he never knew he needed.
Day by day, inch by inch, she breaks down his defenses until he’s faced with a truth he can no longer deny: he swore an oath to protect her, but all he wants is to ruin her. Take her.
Because she’s his.
His princess,
His forbidden fruit,
Every depraved fantasy.
***
Regal, strong-willed, and bound by the chains of duty, Princess Bridget dreams of the freedom to live and love as she chooses.
But when her brother abdicates, she’s suddenly faced with the prospect of a loveless, politically expedient marriage and a throne she never wanted.
And as she navigates the intricacies-and treacheries-of her new role, she must also hide her desire for a man she can’t have.
Her bodyguard.
Her protector.
And ultimate ruin.
Unexpected and forbidden, theirs is a love that could destroy a kingdom…and doom them both.
Do not become emotionally involved. Ever.
Characters
Rhys Larsen has seen a lot. He had a rough childhood, and serving in the Navy SEALs only added to the hardships he faced throughout his life. Larsen knew the importance of keeping professional and personal lives apart, but with Bridget, he kept forgetting.
He takes control wherever he goes—dominating, possessive, and jealous as hell. I mean, why else would you break a vase every time a man approached your woman?
As much as Bridget loves being a princess and is appreciative of the fact, she also can’t stop wanting a normal life. A life where she does not need a (hot) bodyguard 24/7 and doesn’t have to think about the security details all the time.
But with everything changing so rapidly, with her being second in line to the next queen, she needs a break. A few days away from everything and everyone. A few days to live like a normal, reckless college graduate, not the future queen of a nation. Which is happily provided to her by her (hot) bodyguard.
Twisted Games – Vibe
A royal vibe with a castle, ball gowns, galas, suitors, and a very hot protector. What can go wrong, right? Well, everything if the said protector is so mad about you that he would rather have the whole castle with vase-less than see you with anyone else.
Started off with bickering, this book perfectly embraces the journey from, I can’t stand you to I can’t be without you. The sexual tension in the book starts with Twisted Love. Even the slight mention of them both in another book can make you understand they both want each other, but can’t have.
Rhys burns with desire—pure alpha—and every time she teases him with her presence, he loses a little more control. But worry not, you’ll find Bridget just around the corner.
This book also delves into royal politics and their strict rules and regulations. If you want to get a taste of the good and bad sides of being a princess, you can get a nice idea from this book.
