A Royal Visit In Brooklyn (Lost Island Series Spin Off) Royal, beautiful, regal, and the next in line for the crown of Italy - that's how people see and describe Gabriela Romanov, the future queen from the royal dynasty Casa Savoia. She embodies beauty and perfection, admired by all. Yet, beneath the crown lies a lonely soul, longing for something more. She dreams of escaping the confines of her carefully orchestrated life, of experiencing the simple joys of the world beyond royalty. More than anything, she yearns for love-the kind that isn't dictated by duty or expectation. She never imagined it would happen. Her future has been set in stone. But fate takes an unexpected turn when she goes on a royal visit to Brooklyn and meets Captain Sebastian Gomez Baca-a man who is anything but refined. Brash, rugged, and utterly unlike anyone from her world. Could he be the one to grant her the freedom she craves? Will their love defy the odds, or will duty and destiny force them apart?

The cold man fell in love with the kind girl because he knew that she deserved the world and that he wanted to be the one who gave it to her. ♡ Alette Faye was a sweet girl. She was exceptionally kind and had an air of simplicity. Between her part-time job at the bakery, her classes, her time spent tending to her flowers and walking in the fields, she didn't get the opportunity to experience much. Her past created fears in her that she seemingly couldn't overcome, and then she met him. For when she meets him, she should have run away in fear, but she stayed. She stayed and she opened her big heart for a man who found his heart, just for her. ♡ This story is a little cliché, a lot unedited, and super simple.

A stalker, a bodyguard, three iced lattes per day, and a heap of loungewear. Didn't that sound like the start of something wonderful? ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆
