Lastly, in Bewitching in Boots, Elisabeth isn’t your typical princess. She doesn’t have any interest in marrying a prince. She has her heart set on an impossible man: Tristan de Tiersonnier, the handsome ex-commander of the King’s private Guard. With his confident manner, his tall and powerful body, he exudes authority. And—gracious God—such potent sensuality. He makes Elisabeth ache. Heart and body. She’s been in love with him for years. But Tristan wants nothing to do with the King’s favorite daughter. He thinks she’s spoiled and untouchable. Dismissed from his distinguished position due to a recent injury he suffered in the line of duty, Tristan is suffering from wounded pride as well as a wounded leg. Elisabeth shows up at his chateau dress in men’s clothing, looking nothing like a man in her breeches and tight-fitted boots, demanding fencing lessons. Not the usual attire and request from a highborn lady. Forced to spend time with her, Tristan soon realizes she isn’t a coquette or the spoiled royal brat he thought her to be. She’s passionate, loving and loyal. But they both know that the King will soon select a new husband for her. A man of considerable rank, like the late – old – duke he’d picked as her husband the last time. Can a man who has been in service of his King ever hope to win the hand of the fair princess?
