When I first applied for the job I thought it would be like all the others: working as a nanny for an aristocratic family.
Then I got the job and found out how wrong I was.
Now I’m the new nanny for two adorable little girls who happen to be princesses.
Their father is the widowed King of Denmark.
And my new home? The royal palace in Copenhagen.
Adjusting to my new life isn't easy but the hardest part hasn’t been the girls who still grieve over the loss of their mother.
It’s their father.
Cold, mysterious and moody, with an icy stare that seems to penetrate your soul, King Aksel may have hired me to take care of his daughters but he wants as little to do with me as possible.
Yet the longer I share these palace walls with this man, the more that I’m drawn to him. His chiseled face and sexual swagger are only part of the package. It’s in the long, intense glances at the dinner table, the way we’ll brush up against each other in the halls, the rare glimpses of the man deep inside, like the sun passing through clouds.
But no matter how I feel about him, we can never be together.
You think it's bad enough being in love with your boss?
Try falling in love with a king.

I have only read one other book by this author but I have many on my TBR. Not sure what I have been waiting for! This synopsis called to me. Broody widower with young children -- and he's the freakin' KING of Denmark. Sassy younger nanny comes in to breath life into the children and in the meantime shakes loose the cob webs in the castle. Hidden pasts for both of them. Just a wonderful read all around!
The children stole the story for me! Loved them to pieces along with their ill gotten pig. Some authors don't do well with the integration of children in a romance novel but these two are the catalyst to so much of the story.
It's a slow burn between Aurora and Aksel. They both fight their feelings for quite a bit of the story. That makes the chemistry between them just sizzle. When they finally get together....yeah...didn't think the uptight grumpy King had that wild side in him. Whew! So good between these two.
The story dragged a bit for me in some parts. I'm not sure what would have made it better as the story line moved forward with the writing. But I felt my mind wander and wanted to skip some pages. That's the best I can describe it for you. Loved the epilogue :) Would love to catch up with this family again as their children become adults.
