About this ebook

When a modern princess falls in love with her bodyguard, a royal fairy tale turns dangerous.

ONCE UPON A TIME, there was a beautiful princess. Flicka von Hannover lived an enchanted life. She jetted around Europe staging charity events with friends, had married a handsome prince in the most spectacular royal wedding of the 21st century, and should have lived happily ever after.

But then she found the handsome prince in bed with a duchess. And then a coffee shop barista. And then her own goddamn secretary.

Finally, the beautiful princess had had enough of the cheating prince, and she ran away.

The prince didn’t want to let her go. He couldn’t take his throne without her and sent henchmen to take her back to the castle. Her worried royal brother sent people to look for her, too.

The prince threatened her. He said that if the princess contacted her brother or any of her friends for help, he would kill her brother and her brother’s new, pregnant wife.

So the princess ran to the only person she could trust, a man who was frankly not a handsome prince.

Dieter Schwarz had been Flicka’s bodyguard for years. He had protected her from assassins, kidnappers, and high school dates who got too handsy after a few drinks. He was a sharp-witted, sharp-jawed, hard-muscled former Swiss Special Forces operator who had started his own private security firm, Rogue Security, and had no past that he spoke of.

No one knew that he had been her first lover and had broken her heart.

And he’s the only person who can save her.

This is not a standalone story. A lot of jumping around with partial description and partial action sequences, sex scenes are past memories that have no carry over into the immediate situation. I was left feeling disheartened.

To e it was a very slow starting book. By the time it started getting good it was over and you have to purchase the next one. I usually like the free first book cuz it usually shows how the rest of the story will be. I'm hoping if I get the 2nd book that it stays good and doesn't go back to being slow.

In my opinion this is a set up book for the rest of the series. What this book did was go over many things from the previous series Billionaires in Disguise Wulf and Rae, Rock Stars and Billionaires Xan and Georgie. Many characters from previous books. Once Upon a Time did fill in some missing pieces from other books also. For the most part I enjoyed this book, but sometimes I felt it was rehashing things I already knew. I do understand Blair Babylon was trying to set this book as a standalone story, this was for possible new readers. In my opinion this book did not flow very smoothly it was choppy. With everything I have said I can't wait for the rest of the series. This is not the easiest story to read but I think it should be read for new and old readers.
