Goodreads...
A widowed father of two little girls. The beautiful nanny he's hired to raise them. A forbidden romance unlike any other. A Nordic King is the newest standalone royal romance from the New York Times Bestselling author of The Pact and The Swedish Prince.
When I first applied for the job I thought it would be like all the others: working as a nanny for an aristocratic family.
Then I got the job and found out how wrong I was.
Now I’m the new nanny for two adorable little girls who happen to be princesses.
Their father is the widowed King of Denmark.
And my new home? The royal palace in Copenhagen.
Adjusting to my new life isn't easy but the hardest part hasn’t been the girls who still grieve over the loss of their mother.
It’s their father.
Cold, mysterious and moody, with an icy stare that seems to penetrate your soul, King Aksel may have hired me to take care of his daughters but he wants as little to do with me as possible.
Yet the longer I share these palace walls with this man, the more that I’m drawn to him. His chiseled face and sexual swagger are only part of the package. It’s in the long, intense glances at the dinner table, the way we’ll brush up against each other in the halls, the rare glimpses of the man deep inside, like the sun passing through clouds.
But no matter how I feel about him, we can never be together.
You think it's bad enough being in love with your boss?
Try falling in love with a king.

My take...
| Sitting here trying to figure out what to say about this book and I keep coming up empty. Not that it wasn’t great...it was. So much so. I believe I am reading these books out of order, but each one is written to be a stand alone. They are their own stories about different royal men and the leading ladies that occupy their hearts. Utterly fantastic. King Aksel is brooding, ill tempered, and battling the guilt of how he lost his wife two years ago. Aurora is here to make his life a little easier and help nanny his daughters. But Aurora is her own person. She dances to a different drum. And little known to him, that’s exactly what King Aksel and his palace needs. These two woke something up in each other and there is no going back. The story was enchanting and the romance perfection! Halle is one of my favorites when it comes to a unique and fun romances. I have yet to be disappointed. 5 Royal Stars!! |
