The Rising — Elizabeth Cook

Lukas is the King of Cordollia. His life makes headlines daily, including the private details of his love life. Being such a public figure doesn't give him the privacy or much of a chance to be himself. Something that Luk craves. Arabella is in the Royal Guard, Cordollia's Army. With her small stature, she always feels like she has something to prove. Especially when she is one of the youngest women chosen to head a Royal Protection Detail. Ara has to learn the ins, outs, and dangers of the fish bowl the royals live in. Because of thier positions, Luk and Ara find themselves in a unique situation. There are no expectations. They get the luxury of being themselves. With that type of honesty a great freindship forms.Could more happen between these two? Could friendship turn to more? Or could their pasts come back to rip it all apart.
