The Bad Boy Prince in Love

Prince Lucas had lots of work to catch up on, but somehow his mind wasn’t on it. He was trying to crush the recurring feeling of boredom by having dinner with a woman he had picked up in a café that morning.


She had a cute smile and a slightly naïve look. Dressed like a librarian in a cardigan and a long skirt, she piqued his interest. 


But all through dinner, as she blathered on about her favorite hobby, photography, he somehow became even more bored than before.


His broken rib was aching, and his mind was still kind of dull from the concussion, but he didn’t regret any of it.


He missed the Royal Strait Ranch, the Mathews family. He missed Hallie, he even missed her smelly horses and cows. 


It was some sort of strange mind control again! He didn’t even like the woman all that much. She was a hypocrite, getting upset with him for not revealing his princely title. 


But nobody is perfect, he reasoned. Maybe he had simply come to like her as a friend, despite her many faults.
