 Blurb:

In this emotional royal romance by Pippa Roscoe, first he’ll steal away the bride…then he’ll make her his! 

Returning to the palace unwed…

But not untouched! 

Princess Marit’s elopement isn’t exactly all she’d dreamed, but at least it is on her terms. That is, until Greek billionaire Lykos Livas steals her away in her wedding gown!

Enlisted by the king, Lykos must return Marit to the palace – unwed. Yet hearing about her duty-bound life painfully recalls the memories of his own hard-won freedom. He offers her a week of rebellion traveling around Europe with him. But as the chemistry between them becomes undeniable, so does the deadline for Marit’s royal return!

My Review:

Pippa Roscoe has made my day again with this second book of The Royal of Svardia! And I couldn’t believe Lykos’ story is here as I had been waiting for it. Lykos first appeared in the story of The Greek Secret She Carries but you could read this as standalone.

The first few chapters had made me smile and excitedly laugh and be drawn into how Lykos kidnaps Marit in her wedding dress in Paris, and I couldn’t cease admiring Lykos! He is a swoon-worthy hero with grey eyes and perfect features. Additionally he is hilarious when he has to deal with Marit. When her sister has to step down and release her responsibilities, Marit isn’t properly prepared for it thus she runs and tries to marry her university friend yet her attempt fails as Lykos was assigned by the king, Marit’s brother, to return her unwed.

Unfortunately the king of Svardia asks him to stay with her for the next five days in exchange for the business shares which Lykos urgently requires, it somehow really irritates him to look after what he thinks a spoilt rebellious princess however as they spend time together, his preconceived notions are evidently wrong. Marit’s beauty is naturally appealing and people might assume she is a pampered princess yet she just wants to live like some other normal people and be loved.

I just want to say that I did love this story very much especially it’s Lykos who conveys his feeling first, despite the status quo. Oh my, the title and the cover do match the story at the end! Pippa Roscoe has brilliantly set it. After all it’s massively and emotionally entertaining and a truly wonderful read. The ending is immensely satisfying! Thank you for the book. I received the book through Booksprout and voluntary reviewed it.
