James Hunter, who is Scottish, is a bodyguard for the royals. His last assignment is over when he doesn’t want to move to the United States. He gets a new job, near Oslo, working for Prince Magnus and Princess Ella, of Norway, to watch over their rowdy kids. One of the first people he sees is Laila, who is the nanny to the kids, and she’s the girl whose heart he broke a few years ago. They agree to try and put the past behind them, but working together brings up feelings, memories and an attraction that is still there between them. They will have to figure out what they truly want from each other before things get too out of control. Another in a long line of fun rom-coms this year. The royal setting, the characters and the story, all flow together, and you root for these two to be happy with each other.
