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, protective 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 bring him home to her family.
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.
4 STARS
Royally Endowed is a standalone and is part of the Royally series.
This is Ellie and Logan’s story.
Royally Endowed to me was a sugary sweet read with a touch of tension and angst. I love this series and I love how each book represents a different couple with different obstacles and quirks.
This book is tamer than the first two and although you can read Royally Endowed as a standalone, I highly suggest you read the first two novels first to get all the feels. At least the first book since the characters are in this book a lot.
It’s different to see a somewhat normal girl crushing on a somewhat normal guy. Sure, she’s the little sister and she’s kind of in the Royal family, but to me, she’s normal. I really liked the way the beginning started. We see Ellie as a young lass mega crushing on bodyguard Logan. It’s cute!
Logan will make you swoon and drool over him. I like that he’s sweet, kind and loyal. He knows Ellie has a crush on him, but that’s it. He can’t do anything because she’s young and also he wants to make something of himself.
The book progresses over time and you can see a nice bond and relationship between Ellie and Logan so there’s no instant lust which is really refreshing and different.
A lot happens in the book and the previous characters from the other books play a major role in this one so again, I suggest you read the other two books.
Overall, it’s a nice read and a little different from the other books in the series, but it will make your heart melt regardless.

But then the mood shifts, as if
the air becomes thicker, weighted, more . . . sultry.
Because slowly, Logan sinks down
to one knee in front of me—looking in my eyes the whole time. In this position,
I could touch his shoulders, comb my fingers through his thick, dark hair. He’s
the perfect height for me to bend down and kiss his mouth—the perfect height
for him to kiss me back . . . in a lot of places.
My breath hitches. And I wonder he
feels it too.
There’s a sound of tearing Velcro,
and Logan takes something off his ankle—a holster, with a small silver knife,
about three inches long.
“Keep this on you all the time,”
he says seriously. “Just in case. If you wear a skirt, the strap will fit
around your thigh.”
And I almost laugh. Most girls get
a ring from a guy on his knees. I get a murder weapon. But still, it makes me
feel safe . . . watched over. Like I’m something precious that deserves to be
protected.
I take the knife from him, testing
the surprisingly solid, heavy weight of it in my hand. I press my index finger
to the tip.
Logan grabs my wrist tightly.
“Careful. It’s sharp.”
There’s a small, painless nick, a
tiny bead of blood, so I put my finger in my mouth, sucking.
And Logan’s watching me again.
Watching my mouth.
His chest seems to rise just a
little faster, and his throat ripples when he swallows. He bends his head, curves
his strong back, and then I feel his hands on my ankle, securing the strap. His
touch is warm and self-assured. It’s the way he always moves—confident and
experienced. Logan knows his body and he
knows how to use it, in every way possible.
I almost moan. The sound is in the
back of my throat, but I keep it trapped. I never knew the ankle was an
erogenous zone, but it sure as hell is now. A hot pulse of pleasure streaks
from Logan’s fingers on my bare skin, up my thigh, between my legs.
And I throb there, growing swollen
and heavy as he keeps his hands on me.
Can he tell? Does he know? He’s so
aware of everything, always so attuned, I wonder if he can sense my arousal . .
. feel it in the air that clings between us.
