The last thing Princess Simone of Monaco needs is some sweaty gorilla bodyguard shadowing her every move, telling her what to do, interfering with her social schedule, and blocking her from interacting with her adoring fans. She vows not to let spiraling security concerns derail her life or the following she's worked so hard to build. Her whole world will come to a screeching halt when her brother Prince Christophe hires a new bodyguard for her-and just in time. Alexei Asatiani is like no one else Simone has ever met-and she'll need all his skill and experience to survive the enemies moving in on her and the Royal Family. The man she thought was her worst nightmare will become the one thing standing between her and ultimate disaster-so what will happen if she loses him in the line of fire just when she needs him the most?
