Emmy's interest in romance can be traced back to her love of Nancy Drew books, when she tried to solve the mysteries of her favorite detective while rereading the romantic chapters with Ned Nickerson. Fast-forward a few years when she discovered a worn copy of "A Rose in Winter" by Kathleen Woodiwiss on her mother's bookshelf, and she was hooked. Over 20 years later, Harlequin Presents made her dream come true by offering her a contract for her first book.
When Emmy isn't writing or reading, she's chasing around her baby boy, feeding her menagerie of fur babies or carving out a little time on her front porch with her firefighter hubby.
Emmy Grayson’s Prince’s Forgotten Diamond is a royal amnesia romance that sizzles with scorching desire, intense emotion and red-hot sensuality.
After an accident, Julius wakes up with no clue about his identity. He doesn’t remember anything about his life prior to the accident – except for Esme Clark and a diamond engagement ring. Determined to find her at all costs, Julius leaves no stone unturned to track down the woman he is sure is important to him and when he finds her in her Caribbean hideout, he makes another shocking discovery: Esme was his bodyguard and he is a Crown Prince!
Having fled Julius’s kingdom because she felt she was only setting herself up for heartbreak, Esme knew that the man she loved was meant to marry a woman who was far more suitable than she could ever hope to be. Esme is flabbergasted to find Julius at her door – and she is shocked to her very core when she realizes that he has no recollection of the night they had spent together!
Brought together by fate and united by a forbidden passion that simply cannot be denied, long-buried feelings quickly ignite.

Or will their love find a way to triumph against the many obstacles standing in their way?

Emmy Grayson brings us the story of a man who wakes up in a hotel room with no recollection of how he got there or his name. With the information he finds on a business card he finds, he is led to a name of a woman and an island. He finds a very angry, but somewhat familiar woman when he arrives. Will she be able to help put the pieces together, or will their past get in the way from the beginning? Esme is surprised to find Julius with no memory of the time they had spent together or what led to her leaving her home. Will she give him the chance to make the wrongs he caused right, or does the past hurt too much to even try?
We get to follow along Julius and Esme's journey from the past to the present. We get to see what led to Esme leaving the country she loves and what made Julius leave home to end up in London. What happened to him that he ended up not remembering anything? Will they be able to forgive and get past their fears and misgivings enough to see if there is a future in store for them? This is part of Harlequin's Diamonds of the Rich and Famous books.

Once in awhile I like to read a good Harlequin Romance and just escape! Emmy Grayson's book, Prince's Forgotten Diamond, was a fun escape. It is about a Prince who has amnesia. The author did a good job of describing the characters and settings. I liked that the lead female character, Esmerelda Clark, is a successful bodyguard. I liked that the prince wanted to marry for love and not just make a good match. And of course I like the happily ever after ending!
A big thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Presents for the eARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I enjoyed the variety of settings in this book. The characters were likeable but not necessarily relatable. This is the story of a Prince with amnesia and his bodyguard. It was interesting and fun to read. Always pretty quick. Fun and entertaining. 3.5 stars
Harlequin romances are always fun to read. Utterly predictable, lightweight with very little angst, good characters, and the obligatory happy ever after.
This can easily be finished in an hour.
Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this ARC in return for my honest review.
Esme had always done the bidding of others. Julius was the Crown Prince and expected to carry out the traditions of royalty. But the chemistry between Julius and Esme was just too strong to be ignored and so they had their own fairy tale ending.
