Discover the addictive world of the Twisted series...

Stoic, broody and arrogant, elite bodyguard RHYS LARSEN has two rules: protect his clients at all costs and 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 hidden fire that reduces his rules to ash. Day by day, she breaks down his defences. He swore on oath to protect her but it's not enough. She must be his. His princess. His forbidden fruit. His every depraved fantasy. 

***

Regal, strong-willed and bound by the chains of duty, PRINCESS BRIDGET dreams of freedom to live and love as she chooses. 

But when her brother abdicates, she's faces with the prospect of a loveless, political marriage and a throne she never wanted.

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. Her ultimate ruin.

Unexpected and forbidden, theirs is a love that could destroy a kingdom... and doom them both.

Book two of the Twisted Series. It is also Booktok's favourite book from the Series. If you like Princess Diaries then this book is for you!

Rating :⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ out of 5 stars

Bridget is a simple girl who thought she would live a peaceful life but now that her brother has abdicated from the throne. She is next in line. With no training, and zero knowledge of how to be a great queen for her people. She strives and exceeds her own expectations of herself. With the help of Rhys who has saved her life countless times, gives up his career for love. 

"It's not that I didn't believe in love before. It's that I was saving it all for you."

Two people who did not believe in love, or I thought didn't. Found love. Rhys really became booktok's standard in men.

Again, there were a few lines in this book which made me cringe a little. Had to take a few breaks from the book. However, the plot was very addictive. This book SERVED.

I sat down thinking I will only read a few chapters, but two hours later...I've read double. 

"Crawl to me."

Crying. Screaming. Throwing up. 

The scenes had me dead. I was squealing and giggling throughout this whole book. Then I binged Princess Diaries after. 

I'll end this review with my favourite quote.

"You and me against the world, princess." 

SQUEALING.

TW's: possessive alpha hero/ explicit sexual context/ profanity.
