Book Summary: Made for Petrova by Lauren Kutney

Some choices are just meant to be.

After saving her brother from possibly facing jail, Elizabeth “Lizzie” Scott, is about to face the consequences for protecting her brother’s most recent antics. As a political speech writer for Boston’s mayoral campaign, her boss can’t have his number one employee tied to any sort of scandal on the evening of his incumbent race.

As the only remaining bloodline of the Worthington monarch, King Maxwell Worthington finds himself in a precarious situation. With the recent passing of his sister, Maxwell’s lineage is called into question and whether a new monarch should be instituted. Maxwell has the perfect idea—adopt his niece from his late sister to secure a living heir to the Worthington name. With all his competing priorities, Maxwell needs a governess that can be trusted with discretion and give his niece the attention he is unable to.

To avoid potential consequences to the mayoral race, the mayor sends Lizzie to take a temporary position as governess to help his friend, The King, Maxwell Worthington. Only Lizzie has entered a world that is more than what she bargained for. As Maxwell faces increased pressure of removal from the monarch, he soon discovers there is a group of people that would rather see him dead than removed from the throne. From threats, secrets, an arranged marriage, and slow burn romance, the decision begs on whether Lizzie should cut and run back home, or whether she was Made for Petrova.
