Royal Ruin by Jessica Peterson
4.0
Ten years ago Emily's world crumbled when she found out that while she was studying abroad her boyfriend cheated on her. She went to her professor and one thing led to another and they had sex. Right after their encounter the cheating asshat calls and she answers, leaving Kit with the aftermath of it. They didn't speak again. He had a family crisis to deal with and she eventually went back to the states.
Now she's back in the UK vying for a job for the royal family's foundation. She didn't expect to see Kit, he's the heir to the throne. She does and he's still just as good looking but something is different. His eyes are cold now, not soft and friendly like they were.
Kit has to clean up a mess his sister has made and the queen suggests that a distraction needs to happen to draw attention to something else. She suggests that Kit and Emily have a fake engagement. He finds out that Emily's company is likely to close if business doesn't pick up. Her ex screwed her in the divorce and took most of the equity from her design business. This fake engagement is the answer to her problems. Emily doesn't want to get married again and Kit doesn't want to give his heart to anyone. Nothing could go wrong right?
I enjoyed this book. You could feel the emotions roll off the pages. Both Kit and Emily are passionate people and together they start fires.
