REVIEW
In this companion novel to her Royals series, Abramson introduces readers to Princess Cassandra and the royal family of Sereno. After an assassination attempt fails, Cassie is sent away to Meredia, a neighboring country. While there, Cassie's safety is in the hands of Levi Marin, an American CIA agent who has spent two years building Meredia's Royal security. Nobody bothers to tell Cassie that Levi's an American though because of her family's well-known dislike of Americans. In order to provide the security that Cassie needs, Levi pretends to be Cassie's boyfriend. What neither of them expects is for real feelings to develop between them. Abramson has written another entertaining, believable tale of life as a royal. Cassie is a sympathetic character as she struggles to come to terms with having her life in danger, falling in love, and learning her father is sick. Levi's expertise regarding security is believable and fascinating as he works to keep Cassie (and his secret) safe. There's plenty of romance and suspense for those who enjoy those things. I also enjoyed the realistic portrayal of the challenges of being royal as well as the luxuries. A great addition to the Royals series.
