The palace doesn't just assign Princess Elowen a bodyguard.
It assigns her a vow.
After the runaway-princess scandal rocked Sylvarre, security clamps down hard-new protocols, new locks, new rules signed in ink: no unscheduled contact, no private conversations, and no touching beyond safety necessity. Elowen isn't protected like a person. She's protected like a liability.
Enter Grant Havelock: grumpy, disciplined, and impossible to shake. He doesn't flirt. He doesn't charm. He doesn't bend. He simply meets her eyes and delivers one brutal promise:
I will keep you alive, even if you hate me for it.
Elowen is done being positioned as the easy royal for unity optics. She refuses staged appearances. She refuses shame. And she refuses to let a vow turn her into a locked-room asset-especially when the Morgen Group's influence machine is still circling and the palace's leak network has evolved from gossip into something more dangerous: access.
Now Elowen and Grant are trapped in the most combustible setup imaginable: forced proximity, constant surveillance, and a don't touch rule that turns every accidental brush of skin into a controlled disaster. The more the palace tightens around them, the more Grant becomes the only person she trusts-and the more the vow starts to crack under something neither of them can pretend is just duty.
Because the real danger isn't the headlines.
It's the moment she realizes she wants him to break the rules for her... and he wants her to choose it out loud.
My Forbidden Bodyguard is a high-heat, closed-door modern royal romance packed with vow-bound tension, consent-forward chemistry, palace intrigue, and a guaranteed HEA-perfect for readers who want forbidden proximity, protective restraint, and a princess who refuses to be managed.
