A princess whose rebellious nature lands her in big trouble. The older brother’s incredibly sexy best friend who’s tasked with watching her. An isolated cabin hideout where they ride out the storm with only one bed. I’m Princess Annika – beloved little sister to King Stellan… and royal hot mess. Running from a nightclub late at night while drunk seems like a great idea at the time. But when the paparazzi find me throwing up on the street, I land in hot water with the royal palace. Again. To shield me from further disgrace, the royal family decides to confine me with Erik, a formidable bodyguard and my brother's closest friend. We are put in a secluded cabin nestled in the unforgiving Danish winter wilderness. As we settle into our icy retreat, a palpable tension crackles between us like flames licking at dry wood. My fiery spirit clashes against Erik's stoic demeanor, igniting a forbidden attraction that neither of us can deny. Despite his unwavering loyalty to my brother and his duty as my protector, I sense a magnetic pull drawing us closer together. I yearn to break free from the suffocating constraints of royalty, to forge my own destiny beyond the palace walls. Kissing Erik sets my soul on fire… but the lines between duty and desire soon blur into an intricate web of emotions. Trapped between my thirst for freedom and the weight of responsibility on my shoulders, I navigate my newfound love that’s forbidden by status. Erik is a commoner that was raised with my brother to keep the young prince company. He’s certainly not what the royal family has in mind for my future husband. But he’s the only man that I’ve ever wanted in my bed. Will I risk everything for a chance at true happiness? Or will I let the shackles of duty and honor force us apart? His Forbidden Princess is a tantalizing tale of forbidden love, simmering passion, and the complexities of duty and honor.
