At first glance I probably seem like any good-looking guy in their late twenties. I have an obscene amount of confidence, a tattooed body sculpted by the Nordic gods, and I love the ladies as much as they love me.
If I’m not BASE jumping or car racing, I’m chasing other devious thrills with the woman of the week. And that’s fine if you’re the average single guy.
But I'm not the average single guy.
I’m Crown Prince Magnus of Norway and my latest scandal just landed my entire royal family in hot water.
Now the only way the monarchy can save face is for me to smarten up – publicly. If I don’t, I’ll no longer be heir apparent to the throne. So it’s either I abdicate my future role as King or…
I get married.
To a blue-blooded stranger.
Enter Princess Isabella of the tiny country of Liechtenstein.
Quiet, intelligent, and uniquely beautiful, Ella doesn’t like this arrangement any more than I do and she’s not afraid to show it. She says I’m a womanizer, that I don’t take anything seriously, that my ego should be taken down a few pegs, and I think she aims to make me miserable for the rest of my life.
But even as our arranged marriage becomes a war of wit and words, I’m determined to break through Ella’s prim and proper façade to find the wild, sexual and risk-taking woman underneath. I want to uncover the Queen inside her.
The only question is – will she let me?
**The Wild Heir is a standalone royal romance and a spinoff of The Swedish Prince but it is not necessary to read that book beforehand as The Wild Heir is about different characters**

Por fin he leído a Karina Halle!!!! Llevo mucho tiempo queriendo leer a esta autora y cuando tras leer una novela corta de Royal romance, me quedé con ganas de leer más, me acordé de esta historia. Y bueno, ¿qué puedo decir? Lo leí de una sentada.
Por un lado tenemos al príncipe “salvaje” de Noruega, Magnus, heredero al trono y playboy profesional adicto a la adrenalina.
Por otro lado nos encontramos con Isabella, Ella, princesa de Liechtenstein, amante del medioambiente y anónima total.
Pero, ¿qué ocurre cuando Magnus monta un lio de proporciones épicas? Pues que por primera vez en su vida, le toca comerse lo que él solito se ha guisado y para restaurar el honor de su familia y su credibilidad deberá encontrar una esposa.
Y, ¿quién es la mejor de opción de la lista de mujeres elegibles de sangre azul que le entrega su madre? Sí, exacto la estudiante a tiempo completo y poco princesa, Ella. Ella, que le odia. Que piensa que es un engreído, egoísta y arrogante (dicho por ella, no por mi). Pero uuuh, sorpresa, desde el primer momento saltan chispas.
Ella, es la unica capaz de hacer que su mente se quede en blanco, él es el único capaz de hacerla sentida amada. Tienen dos semanas para tomar una decisión, dejar que sus discusiones les impidan ver lo que tienen delante o decir sí quiero, ante toda la nación.
Ha sido una historia super ligera y divertida, he amado a Ella y esa necesidad de pertenencia, pero sobretodo como Magnus supo exactamente lo que ella necesitaba y no dudó en dárselo. También, como él nunca ha dudo en decirle a ella como se sentía, lo que quería de ella, que la necesitaba y como le hacia sentir.
Una de las cosas que más me han gustado ha sido la evolución de los personajes, como Magnus pasa de “niño-hombre” a hombre y como Ella supera todas sus inseguridades.
Y ese primer beso, aún me tiene flotando.
Magnus is the heir to the Norwegian throne, and this time he fucked up bigger time than usual. His parents give him an ultimatum : if he wants to be king one day he must make up for his mistake and get a new perfect public image. In other words he must get married to another blue blood princess of Europe. He chooses Isabella, princess of Liechtenstein, as it seems completely surreal to do such a thing when he doesn't even know any of the princesses and didn't think about getting married before. She is not thrilled by this marriage of conveniences when she has so much other plans for her life. But Magnus is clearly more and more interested and decided to make things work between them...
Currently in Norway for my studies I just had to pick it up and, boy I did not regret it ! This book is just what I needed and didn't know I needed. A story about a marriage of convenience can just not work but Karina Halle just blew my mind with this book. The story has just the perfect pace : not too fast but not too slow to the point you are just praying for something to happen.
Magnus is sexy, funny and romantic in his own way, the prince you crave for ! Isabella is just smart enough not to be a miss know it all or completely stupid. She also has the right balance between innocence and sexyness, she is not the young virgin waiting for the perfect man in her life.
The whole story is just a perfect balance between sexy parts that are not thrown in too soon, romantic parts “escalating” as they start to know each other. The characters are funny without being goofy.
I just wished the plot twist of the story was a little sooner in the story but it was not so bothering neither. Just a book with a perfect balance to make it short !
