<\/p>\n
I never believed in fairy-tales.<\/p>\n
Never held out for Prince Charming.<\/p>\n
Growing up poor in small-town California as the oldest of six siblings, I knew I would never ride off into the sunset with anyone. That was even more apparent when a senseless tragedy took the lives of my parents, forcing me to become the sole guardian of our dysfunctional household at the mere age of twenty-three.<\/p>\n
Then a fateful encounter literally brought Prince Charming to my doorstep.<\/p>\n
At first I thought Viktor was just your average businessman passing through, albeit obscenely handsome, six-foot-five, blue-eyed, and mysteriously rich.<\/p>\n
But soon I discovered the truth behind Viktor\u2019s fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n
Beneath his quiet, enigmatic gaze and cocky charm, is a man who is running away from who he really is. A role he\u2019d rather not fulfill.<\/p>\n
He is Viktor of House Nordin, His Royal Highness, The Crown Prince of Sweden.<\/p>\n
Yet uncovering Viktor\u2019s secret was only the first step.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t expect to fall in love with him.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t expect to have my whole life turned upside down.<\/p>\n
When you\u2019re from two different worlds, can your hearts meet somewhere in the middle?<\/p>\n
Or do happily-ever-afters only exist in fairy-tales?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Swedish Prince is a standalone romance inspired by Roman Holiday.<\/p>\n
