Summary

She may never reach her royal wedding if she can't resist the rugged mercenary assigned to protect her.

Disgraced ex-knight Royce Saint-Michel was banished from his homeland because of an impulsive act that cost him all he held dear. Now, he has the chance to reclaim his birthright - if he agrees to protect a princess on a journey that may prove deadly to them both.

Royce must escort the lovely Princess Ciara across a war-torn land to her royal wedding... and ensure that she arrives untouched. The two set off alone on a treacherous journey through snowy mountain passes, but forbidden desire soon proves even more dangerous than the assassins on their trail. With the fate of two kingdoms hanging in the balance, will Royce and Ciara do as honor and duty demand... or surrender to the longing in their hearts?

Emotional rollercoaster

I think I'm getting old because this book made me cry twice and I was nowhere near finishing it! I can't remember when it was the last time I was this connected with the characters. Some people might say that the story was going on for a bit too long, but I think that certain elements and characters had to be introduced to make it complete. I loved how the characters fell in love with each other and how they overcame with the obstacles placed in front of them.

Narration ruined this book for me.

Good story, however narrated with wistful girly giddiness and pathos, especially the heroine part. The American accent also distracted from getting into the story. The only way I could listen was slightly increasing the speed of narration.
