The kingdom or his heart? After losing his wife and future queen in an accident, Crown Prince Raoul Navarro knows he’ll never find that kind of love again. Now he must focus on running the kingdom and raising his two children. The idea of falling in love again feels impossible. And yet his future stretches out before him, bleak and lonely… Smart, loyal, and discreet, Stephani is Raoul’s assistant and his wife’s cousin. She adores her job, except for the teensy complication that she’s been in love with her boss since her first week of employment. She’d never act on it, though. Raoul is first in line to the throne and she’s his assistant. Raoul is nursing a broken heart, and a woman like Stephani isn’t the kind to be a future queen. When Stephani steps in as his plus one at a state dinner, Raoul suddenly takes notice. She knows all the players and protocol, but this is something more. Is this captivating woman the same one who’s run his office for years? And will one impetuous midnight kiss change the course of the kingdom forever?
