The Princess Predicament by Lisa Childs
4.0
Warning: Do not read this book if you haven't read the first one. It continues from where the first book left off. Also, spoilers ahead if you haven't read the first book.
Royal Bodyguards Book Two, like the previous book in the series, starts six months earlier. Princess Gabriella St. Pierre is stopped by one of the King's bodyguards, Whit (Whitaker) Howell, from disturbing him. She has a right to be mad though, at the King, who passed her from one betrothed to another within the span of a single night, while she secretly had the hots for Whit. And they succumb to that attraction and spend a night of togetherness.
The story then starts six months later, with the Princess now missing for the past six months. It takes off from the previous book, where Charlotte has given Gabby's last known address to Whit. And with his injured shoulder in tow, he's off to find here there.
But there are surprises waiting for him, in the form of gunshots and a pregnant Gabby. Even after Aaron, Whit and Charlotte think that they have neutralised the threat against Gabby, it is not so. There is another threat in the form of Prince Linus Demetrios' father, or is it someone else entirely?
But she is nothing if not a sassy princess, who has been taught well by her bodyguard sister. And further secrets are revealed when Gabby meets with Lydia Green, sister of Bonita Green, Charlotte's mother.
It was amusing to see rough and tough Whit get jealous, and that too of a flirty doctor, Dominic Delgado. Aaron and Charlotte get some story space too; I loved the first book so much, that I wish there was a second one with them in the starring role.
Both Whit and Gabby think the other used them. And hence are closed off emotionally to each other, at least they try to appear that. There is an aeroplane fight sequence too, a first for Mills and Boon, according to my reading list, and a daring escape. The ending is quite hilarious, with Charlotte still thinking about the still present danger to Josie Jessup in the form of the person who hired her ex-partner to get information about her whereabouts. And so we have [a:Lisa Childs|332359|Lisa Childs|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1355567845p2/332359.jpg]'s third book in the series, [b:Royal Rescue|16116281|Royal Rescue (Royal Bodyguards #3)|Lisa Childs|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1356945530s/16116281.jpg|21933821], coming up next.
