Twisted Games is a slow to medium burn contemporary royal bodyguard romance. It’s book two of the Twisted series but can be read as a standalone.
“To all the girls who said fuck prince Charming, give me a scarred night.”
Twisted Games – Blurb
She can never be his…but he’s taking her anyway.
Stoic, broody, and arrogant, elite bodyguard Rhys Larsen has two rules: 1) Protect his clients at all costs 2) Do not become emotionally involved. Ever.
He has never once been tempted to break those rules…until her.
Bridget von Ascheberg. A princess with a stubborn streak that matches his own and a hidden fire that reduces his rules to ash. She’s nothing he expected and everything he never knew he needed.
Day by day, inch by inch, she breaks down his defenses until he’s faced with a truth he can no longer deny: he swore an oath to protect her, but all he wants is to ruin her. Take her.
Because she’s his.
His princess.
His forbidden fruit.
His every depraved fantasy.
***
Regal, strong-willed, and bound by the chains of duty, Princess Bridget dreams of the freedom to live and love as she chooses.
But when her brother abdicates, she’s suddenly faced with the prospect of a loveless, politically expedient marriage and a throne she never wanted.
And as she navigates the intricacies—and treacheries—of her new role, she must also hide her desire for a man she can’t have.
Her bodyguard.
Her protector.
Her ultimate ruin.
Unexpected and forbidden, theirs is a love that could destroy a kingdom…and doom them both.

Twisted Games Review
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Story/Plot : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Romance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Spice: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I do not know from where should I start even for Twisted Games……plot – good, romance – even better, spice -the best! . Lets be honest book girlies……Rhys name never let us down. I got more connected to the story as it wasn’t some random meet and they just hit it off suddenly. The relationship molded for over 2 years and then they start dating and get married. The plot is obvious as he is a bodyguard and she is a princess, well , his princess in this case. And have to overcome an ages old tradition to get their happily ever after.
The age gap is an added factor here! Rhys is more matured and carries scars of war with him, and with time Bridget kisses away each of his scars and make him feel normal. (Lover playing in the background). His fear-her stubbornness, her fear-his commitment, her insecurity – his reassurance, her background and his willingness to change was something I wish I could read for the first time again and again..
You know what you said earlier? About how we always end up where we’re meant to be?
I was always meant to find my way to you.~ Rhys Larsen
I’m as much yours as you are mine, princess, and a law isn’t keeping me away. I don’t care what a piece of paper says. I’ll burn down the entire fucking Parliament if I have to.
~Rhys Larsen
