Disowned Royal. Club Royal, #4

Life couldn't get any more twisted and convoluted if it tried. Christian hates his parents as much as they hate him, but he never expected them to throw him in a cell when he blurted out he was bisexual. Their public image is important to them because it hides the transgressions they've subjected many people to over the years. People Christian mourn every day because he couldn't save them. Reading is an escape, and one place gives him the solitude he needs to shore his defences - and the view isn't too bad either. Oscar is living his dream.
The owner of a beautiful cafe slash bookshop slash library, he is never happier than when he is working, which is all the time. When Prince Christian becomes a regular, Oscar tries to stop his attraction to him, but the man is like a god. A haunted god, but nonetheless. His scrutiny of the man means he notices when Christian nears breaking point, but he has no idea what to do about it. Christian offers to find him what he needs, but Oscar hesitates.
Does Christian really want to help or is he feeling sorry for him?  When their attraction persuades Christian to take the role for himself, can he keep Oscar safe when he goes up against the people who wish to harm those they love? This is an MM book containing BDSM scenes and D/s dynamics in all forms. It also has lots of loving, friendships, family drama and, of course, a HEA.
