I protect royals – I don't screw them. I definitely don't screw spoiled, rich, out-of-control brats like Princess Alexandra. She's a walking disaster, a whirlwind of public scandal and bad behavior.

 She's smart-mouthed, argumentative, and doesn't do a damned thing I say.

 And the idea of throwing her over my shoulder like a caveman makes my blood run hot.

 She's the ultimate in forbidden – bodyguards don't touch princesses. I could lose everything.

 
But this is one princess I'll bring to her knees. Alexandra 
My bodyguard is a royal a**.

 He's ridiculously arrogant, completely insufferable, and always plays by the rules. 
B-o-r-i-n-g. I definitely don't do boring.

 If there's one thing I can't stand, it's someone telling me what to do. 


Yet the idea of him turning me over his knee makes me wet. Princesses don't hook up with their bodyguards – it's the ultimate transgression. And they definitely don't fall in love.
