I have to focus on freeing myself… but she’s all I see.I never wanted the throne. I just wanted a normal life. Free to do what I want. Who I want.Luckily, I discovered a secret–and a loophole. Turns out I have a long-lost brother. All I have to do is track him down and make him the prince. A kingdom is what everyone secretly wishes they had instead of a job, right? Everyone but me.The clock is … but me.
The clock is ticking, and the last thing I have time for is cleaning up behind my sexy, accident-prone new neighbor. She’s everything I don’t want but can’t seem to stop thinking about. The fact that she’s spoken for shouldn’t make me so furious.
She can be my friend, but nothing more.
I can’t touch her. Can’t kiss her. Can’t fantasize about all the things I could do with her. To her.
And most of all, I can’t let her find out who I am.
(This is Book 1 in the Royals Undercover duet.)

Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone is a fun contemporary romance. Ms. Malone has provided readers with a well-written book furnished with outstanding characters. This book is written in first person, alternating point of view format…my most unfavorite, but it works in this story. Sebastian is Prince of the Winston Isles but has gone on a search hoping to find his illegitimate brother to go home with him and take his place so he can work on his photography. Penny is a little bit of a clutz but is still part of the Royal Guard for the royal family. When Penny finds her boyfriend kissing her brother she accepts the King’s mission to find the Prince and bring him home. Penny and Sebastian’s story is loaded with drama, laugh out loud humor, smokin’ hot sex, action and suspense. I loved this story right up to the cliff-hanger ending. That I didn’t love. I hate cliff-hangers. I will still read Nana Malone books, but I’ll be more careful and try to pick ones that aren’t cliff-hangers.
I voluntarily read a complimentary copy of this book that I received from Bookfunnel. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Cliff hanger…
Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone is the first book in her Royals Undercover duet. As I am eagerly awaiting the release of Return of the Prince, I thought I would go back to the beginning (from what I can tell) of these ROYAL stories and read Sebastian And Lucas’ tales. I was not disappointed at all! Sebastian and Penny’s story is off to a fabulous start. Hot and steamy, filled with subterfuge and a little bit of angst, even knowing the events from reading books further into this world I was enthralled with every page. Enjoy!
I liked this story quite a bit. There was the fantasy and the reality mixed together to make a sweet story. I did not like how it ended only because it was a cliffy that tore at my heart. But the story was fun and well written.
Loved It
This was a beautifully written story about a man finding that his father was not everything he thought he was. He made mistakes. Sebastian found out he has 2 half siblings and is looking for them. Penny was a a childhood friend he hadn’t seen in a long time. But she is part of the Royal Guard, the family business. He needs to come home she is undercover as security, he doesn’t know.
Wish it hadn’t been a cliffhanger… but loved the story
cliffhanger
Loved it, right up until it ended in a cliffhanger. I hate it when authors do that!!
It was hard to get into and to finish. Finish left you up in the air!
It’s a 2-part book, I wish I knew that ahead of time but it pulled me in so I had to buy the 2nd book to finish story. Good read
Loved it!
The ending leaves you hanging though, so you have to buy the next book to get the ending
A great read. The story doesn’t end and it does. Read the first book and you get to know everyone .
I was disappointed this book was not a stand alone, but it was great until I found that out. It is too bad there is not more notice given on books that they have or more ‘installments’ or additional books to finish the story.
