Logan St. James is a smoldering, sexy beast. Sure, he can be a little broody at times—but Ellie Hammond’s willing to overlook that. Because, have you seen him??
Sexy. As. Hell.
And Ellie’s perky enough for both of them.
For years, she’s had a crush on the intense, gorgeous royal security guard—but she doesn’t think he ever saw her, not really.
To Logan, Ellie was just part of the job—a relative of the royal family he’d sworn to protect. Now, at 22 years old and fresh out of college, she’s determined to put aside her X-rated dreams of pat-downs and pillow talk, and find a real life happily ever after.
The Queen of Wessco encourages Ellie to follow in her sister’s footsteps and settle down with a prince of her own. Or a duke, a marquis…a viscount would also do nicely.
But in the pursuit of a fairy tale ending, Ellie learns that the sweetest crushes can be the hardest to let go.
***
Logan St. James grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, in a family on the wrong side of the law. But these days, he covers his tattoos and scars with a respectable suit. He’s handsome, loyal, brave, skilled with his hands and…other body parts.
Any woman would be proud to call him hers.
But there’s only one woman he wants.
For years he’s watched over her, protected her, held her hair back when she was sick, taught her how to throw a punch, and spot a liar.
He dreams of her. Would lay down his life for her.
But beautiful Ellie Hammond’s off-limits.
Everybody knows the bodyguard rules: Never lose focus, never let them out of your sight, and never, ever fall in love.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Royally Endowed, is the epitome of slow burn romance.
“If comic-book Superman, James Dean, Jason Bourne and some guy with the smoothest, most perfectly pitched, British – Scottish-esque, Wessconian-accented voice all melded together into one person, they would make Logan F**** St. James.”
James is the perfect hero, he’s kind of a bad boy, but he has such a strong sense of duty that it takes the rough edge away. The way he protects Ellie will make even the coldest heart thaw and fall in love. He would risk his life and his career for her.
“A woman like Ellie Hammond doesn’t happen by accident. My girl was made by design.”
Ellie is such a strong, independent in your face girl that we watch grow into a beautiful young woman. Watching her fall in love slowly over time with Logan was often brutal and made my heart ache, but at times it was simply wondrous.
We watched these two play a cat and mouse game and fight what they were feeling and I loved it. There was a suspense element to Royally Endowed that I adored! I love having a little twist to romantic comedies and this twist was perfection, even if a little obvious. I only wish we could have spent more time with Ellie and James as a couple, the majority of the story was them getting to know each other and them dancing around their feelings.
If you love royalty romances, this is a must read!
