In a world nearly identical to ours, the North won the Civil War, flannel is the new bling, and Russia never sold Alaska to the U.S. Instead, Alaska is a beautiful, rough-and-tumble country ruled by a famously eccentric royal family who put the fun back in dysfunctional. And the tabloid darlings are about to get more ink once the King's "royal oats" come back in the form of a surprise princess, landing them all in, well...

The Royal Mess

Jeffrey Rodinov is descended from one of the oldest families in Alaska, and a Rodinov has been protecting a Baranov for generations. It's a job Jeffrey takes VERY seriously. Six feet four inches, 220 fatless lbs., black hair, and blue eyes; weapon of choice: the 9 mm Beretta. In a pinch? His fists. IQ: 157. (Yes, crossword puzzle, in ink, just after taking out the guy behind you. No thanks necessary.) No one ever sees Jeffrey Rodinov coming, and no one--not even a mouthy, illegitimate princess--is going to keep him from playing bodyguard when his king decrees it.

Right. But no Rodinov ever had to protect Princess Nicole Krenski. Her credentials? Hunting guide in the Alaskan wilderness. Smart. Stubborn bordering on exasperating. Five-seven. Blue eyes. Very kissable mouth. Very kissable neck, back, legs, wrists, earlobes. The lady says she doesn't need a bodyguard, but that's where she's wrong. Someone needs to watch her and show her the royal ropes (and cuffs...and scarves...). Someone who can make her feel like a queen--in and out of bed. And that's a job Jeffrey Rodinov takes very seriously as well...

In this deliciously sexy, wickedly funny companion to The Royal Treatment and The Royal Pain, a reluctant princess and a determined royal bodyguard are about to discover that when it comes to powerful love, there are no defenses...

The Royal Mess-A Joyfully Recommended Title!!

Nicole Krenski has completed the last request of her dying mother - to contact her father, who was only just revealed to Nicole herself. Imagine her amazement at learning her father is King Alexander II (known as King Al) of the Alaskan Royal house. Nicole really doesn't want anything else to do with the family; after all, she has lived her life without them so far. However, when circumstances make it so Nicole has to agree to the acknowledgement of King Al, she decides there is at least ONE thing she just might like from the palace.

Jeffrey Rodinov is a royal bodyguard who is from a long line of protectors of the Royal family. When he is put in charge of Nicole's safety, Jeffrey has a moment of doubt - not in his ability to protect Nicole from harm, but in his ability to protect them from each other. Trying to fight their attraction has put Jeffrey between a rock and a hard space. Now, throw in the rest of the Royals and Edmund, along with the daily antics that just seem to happen, then add it all up and you have what just might be termed as a royal mess.

I will say right off the top that my wait for the next book in the Alaskan Royal Family was totally worth it. The Royal Mess is about a new royal child and how she learns to cope with her new identity and that so includes her hunky bodyguard, Jeffrey. To avoid saying too much, I'm just going to say that Nicole had me laughing and sighing from start to finish. Ms. Davidson has once again taken her down-to-earth royals and given us yet another dimension to their unique family, using her trademarked humor and false insults to reveal the deep love they all feel for each other. I could not put The Royal Mess down and then turned around and reread it all over again. There was no aspect I did not love in following Nicole's trials. If you have been reading this series, this is a book you won't want to miss. If you have not been following the Alaskan Royals, then get up right now and go find them - you won't regret it, I promise. Of course this could only be a Joyfully Recommended Read from me.

As a side note, Ms. Davidson has said this might be her last in the series. I will say several questions are answered and ends are tied up. However, after re-reading I found at least one sibling who was left open and I'm hoping she will decide to do his story at some future time. And as this has edged its way into being my favorite series from Ms Davidson, I'm not above begging.

This was a fun read(just like the other two). I would love it if MJD gave us some more. The royal family is so over the top. I don't think the story should be over.

loved it hope she writes more

very entertaining sad to read about the possibility she might not write any more so everyone write to her and encourage her to continue

A cute book

This book was an average read. It intrigued me enough to buy it to see what it was all about. This was my first time reading any of MJD's books. It was funny and the characters are very memorable. This book was in the romance section, but I felt that there was not enough romance between Nicole and Jeffery. I wish there was more character development, but overall it was a nice short book to read.
