Dragged on a family trip to Europe’s ancient cities, Becca
wants nothing more than to go home. Trapped with her emotionally distant
father, over-eager stepmother, and a brother who only wants to hook up with
European hotties, Becca is miserable. That is until she meets Nikolai, a guy as
mysterious as he is handsome. And she unknowingly finds herself with a runaway
prince.
Nikolai has everything a guy could ask for-he's crown
prince, heir to the throne, and girls adore him. But the one thing he doesn't
have...is freedom. Staging a coup, he flees his kingdom and goes undercover on
his own European tour.
When Nikolai and Becca meet, it’s their differences that
draw them together. Sparks fly as they share a whirlwind of adventures, all the
while dodging his royal guard. But Becca's family vacation ends in a matter of
days. Will Nikolai and Becca be forced to say goodbye forever, will his destiny
catch up to him, or will they change history forever?
Being stuck in the Midwest, epicenter of the craziest winter
weather in a long time, has me longing for summer like you wouldn’t believe. Of
course, if I’m going to mentally escape, I’m going to choose a spectacular
destination to distract me from reality. Royally Lost fits that bill easily.
It’s very straightforward – Becca wants to be anywhere but
with her parents on vacation in fabulous Europe while her brother manages to find ways to
disappear and do his own thing. Becca, who is very unimpressed with Europe, (seriously what is up with that?) would rather hunt down the nearest McDonald's than have to suffer through another historical tour. Nikolai has run off in search of anonymity for as long as he can have it. It's refreshing for him to be the master of his own schedule for a change. When Becca and Nikolai meet, they take an instant
liking to each other and it’s good times from there. Nikolai knows his temporary emancipation from his royal duties is short-lived especially with his disappearance and face plastered all over the headlines making his time with Becca urgent and bittersweet.
