About this ebook
Choosing him could cost her the crown but he’s worth the price.
Kyle Young has it all—NFL stardom, effortless charm, and a life built on doing exactly what he wants, when he wants it. Commitment? Not on the playbook.
Arabella wants something different. Before duty chains her to a throne and a loveless royal marriage, she escapes her gilded cage for one final adventure—and finds herself irresistibly drawn to a gorgeous quarterback who sees her as just another woman, not a royal obligation.
Their chemistry is instant. Their connection undeniable. And for the first time in their lives, both are tempted to want more than the life they planned.
But secrets have a way of surfacing.
When Kyle discovers Arabella’s true identity and royal pressure threatens to pull them apart, they’re forced to face the impossible questions: Is love worth giving up a crown—or everything he’s worked for?
Luckily, Kyle’s ready to become the prince Arabella needs.
A sexy, emotionally charged royal sports romance about forbidden love, impossible choices, and risking it all for a happily ever after.
