Jackson Gale is an ex-Navy Seal serious about his job at Jameson Security. He's cool, confident, controlled, intense, and guards his heart. He is not at all thrilled at his newest assignment of babysitting a Princess while she tours in the US. He expects her to be spoiled and bratty.

Princess Camille Winterbourne is next in line for the throne of Bretaria and her family is wealthy beyond all measures due to the ruby mines in their sovereign city-state. And due to some ascension rules, she is currently a hot target for kidnapping or assassination. She is smart, honest, humble, caring, responsible, and elegant. But she is also strong-willed, bold, and has a zest for life. Her life is planned already and she must find a suitable suitor when she returns. 

He tries to keep things professional but she pushes boundaries. These two spark and develop an understanding that leads to a forbidden, secret affair that is only supposed to last during the trip. No strings. No attachments. No hope of more. But as threats ramp up, duties shift, and eventually everything is going to be out in the open. Even if Jameson and the Bretarian team can keep the family safe, eventually Jackson and Camille will have to return to their real lives where their futures and social stations do not match at all. 

This is a sexy, forbidden, bodyguard and princess romance with building tension and some mystery and suspense. Jackson and Camille are likable and have great chemistry and an understanding of each other that they never expected. My main issue with this installment was that there was a lot of time on the build-up and impossibility of the situation, and then the end and resolution seemed to occur fairly fast. But I enjoy this series and getting glimpses of some of the other characters and am looking forward to more.
