Logan St. James is a smoldering, sexy beast. Sure, he can be a little broody at times?but Ellie Hammond?s willing to overlook that. Because, have you seen him??

Sexy. As. Hell.

And Ellie?s perky enough for both of them.

For years, she?s had a crush on the intense, protective royal security guard?but she doesn?t think he ever saw her, not really.

To Logan, Ellie was just part of the job?a relative of the royal family he?d sworn to protect. Now, at 22 years old and fresh out of college, she?s determined to put aside her X-rated dreams of pat-downs and pillow talk, and find a real life happily ever after.

The Queen of Wessco encourages Ellie to follow in her sister?s footsteps and settle down with a prince of her own. Or a duke, a marquis?a viscount would also do nicely.

But in the pursuit of a fairy tale ending, Ellie learns that the sweetest crushes can be the hardest to let go.

***

Logan St. James grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, in a family on the wrong side of the law. But these days, he covers his tattoos and scars with a respectable suit. He?s handsome, loyal, brave, skilled with his hands and?other body parts.

Any woman would be proud to bring him home to her family.

But there?s only one woman he wants.

For years he?s watched over her, protected her, held her hair back when she was sick, taught her how to throw a punch, and spot a liar.

He dreams of her. Would lay down his life for her.

But beautiful Ellie Hammond?s off-limits.

Everybody knows the bodyguard rules:

Never lose focus, never let them out of your sight, and never, ever fall in love.

5.0 out of 5 stars SO GOOD
Reviewed in Canada on August 17, 2017
I first fell in lust with Nicholas in Royally Screwed, and then Henry in Royally Matched and now Logan in ROYALLY ENDOWED and I cannot seem to get enough of these Wessco lads!

I must admit, I cannot choose a favourite. I adore all of these strong, loyal, admirable men. But there is something about Logan I cannot seem to get out of my mind. I have a thing for men who protect their women. The brooding, tall, chiseled gorgeous type. Chase has a knack for creating such lovable, rich characters, and Logan is ALL that. The chemistry that he and Ellie have is really potent and viable, and it really shows through Chase's enviable writing.

Falling in love at 17 is powerful. You dive headfirst and don't think about the consequences until later. It's a visceral reaction, and those are the exact feelings Ellie has for Logan. He's too old for her, he is essentially her body guard, her protector, and her saviour-in more ways than one. Despite Ellie knowing that Logan is off limits, she still feels for him. It doesn't change who she is, or make her act like a child, she is mature about it and hopes that fate will take over one day and give her what she wants. And she WANTS Logan.

Ellie is a shining star, a pretty angel, and as silly as they come. But she is smart and kind and very self assured. Logan knows he can't be with her, shes too young, naive, and the Prince's sister in law. SHE IS OFF LIMITS. Logan tries with all his might, but the attraction he has for her is not just physical, its primitive, it digs deep. The need to keep her safe and out of harms way is so natural to him, he wonders how he ever lived without her occupying his mind.

Chase does an excellent job with the long time line that is prevalent throughout the book. Nearly five years' time elapses and I found the scenes in which she chose to write were important and focused. The natural progression of Logan and Ellie's relationship was well crafted and well thought out. If you'd like, you could call it a "slow burn"-but the burn still had fire. The flirting, the blushes, the tortured expressions and the need to protect was thrilling to read. I was obsessive about finishing as fast as possible because I was so engrossed in the story.

I was kept on my toes and thoroughly impressed with how well this book was written. I loved all of the supporting cast and felt like I was part of the Royal family at times by how well Chase provided the visuals and small moments that really make a book special. I laughed, swooned, held my breath and heard my pulse racing because this book was charged. There was never a dull moment, something was always happening-and that something was always captivating.

There is something about Emma Chase that really appeals to me. I have loved every single book I have read of hers. Shes clever and rich with her words and her stories. I loved Royally Endowed and am happy with how everything turned out. I cannot wait to see what she brings to the table next!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection!!!
Reviewed in Canada on August 16, 2017
I've been beyond excited to read this one for so long. This is actually what got me into the series. As much as I love Emma Chase's books, this series wasn't high on my list. Until one day I read the synopsis for this book, realized it's not out yet and it's a third of a series, so I read the first two. Enjoyed them greatly...THEN finally this one released.

Logan and Ellie's story is everything and more. At first I didn't like how it jumped through the years so much, but later realized how important it is for the story. Since there is an age difference as well as a position difference, it was important for us to read how Ellie's attraction started as a crush and became more. And how for Logan he tried to ignore the attraction but could only for so long. We're treated to when Logan is first assigned to her, throughout her last high school year, graduation, eighteenth birthday and finally young twenties, where the attraction becomes a larger and more permanent thing. But still, position keeps these two apart.

When they do come together, Emma Chase delivers! It is HOT between these two. The sex aside, the workup and attraction these two have together no matter what they're doing is HOT. Secondly, it's plain adorable. The way they feel for each other, especially how he feels for her, is so sweet to read. His chapters just melt my inside.

Additionally it's great to read about the other characters. Olivia and Nicholas are a very big part of course. We get to see the result of their story. This book features Henry's engagement and wedding, so the second half of this book (when Ellie and Logan get together) it's only about a year after book 2. Reading about these others are awesome.

This book is easily my favorite of the series and I don't think Emma Chase can beat Ellie and Logan with a different couple, is she chooses to write more of this series.

Royally Endowed by Emma Chase (Audiobook)
Narrated by: Shane East, Andi Arndt
Series: The Royally Series #3

4.5 Stars - Flirty, fun and such and easy listen! I enjoyed coming back to Wesco and seeing the Royals. I had forgotten how much I wanted to see Ellie and Logan get together. They make a cute couple and I loved that we got to see how long Logan could fight his attraction for her. Great addition to the series.

As always, Shane East and Andi Arndt did a fantastic job with Narration.. Though I have to say Mr. East’s voice reminds me of someone (an actor maybe?) and I just can’t place it. I drives me batty.. In a good way haha!

If you haven’t read this series, I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Royally Endowed
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 27, 2021

Royally Endowed is the third, and probably my favourite, title in @authoremmachase’s royal romance series.

This is Ellie and Logan’s story. We know them from the first two books in the series. Ellie is Olivia’s sister and Logan is one of Nicholas’s body guards. The story travels back 5 years to when Logan was stationed at Amelia’s - Olivia and Ellie’s bakery - to watch over Ellie while Olivia went to Wessco for the summer.

I would really advocate reading this series in order. I love each book individually however the continuation of the story and the involvement of all of the characters really warrants reading in order. Particularly so with this book as the story progresses through time with big jumps and often Logan and Ellie are together at events with either Nicholas and Olivia or Henry and Sarah at the forefront and often scenes we’ve read about from another perspective in an earlier book.

I would have loved about three books just for this couple! As I said the story starts with 5 years ago and jumps forward in quite big chunks of time. The chemistry between Logan and Ellie has been there right from the beginning when Ellie was 18 and Logan was 22.

The cover model is just 😗🤌🏻 *chefs kiss* perfect for Logan and I love him as a book boyfriend. He’s loyal and protective and would do anything for Ellie. She’s a great character too and is the perfect sunshine match for Logan’s quiet grumpiness. This was a reread for me and this time I happened to pick up on something I hadn’t before. Ellie wants, and eventually gets, a lemon tattooed on her ankle! Just like Kirsty and I, and her reasoning for wanting that exact tattoo is EXACTLY the reason we have them!

I love this series so much and if you like the kind of look back element with time jumps to key moments in the characters romance then check out Moonlight on Nightingale Way by Samantha Young, it’s great too and part of another fabulous series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sad to see this series end but it ends so wonderfully

Royally Endowed turned out to be everything I hoped it would be. A slow burn romance that never dragged on, a book full of humorous and sweet moments A book of sadness and joy, strengths and weakness, friendships, family, and love. It was a beautiful wrap up to a series I have thoroughly enjoyed and am sad to see go but so happy to see it go the way it did.

Logan, Logan, Logan F'N St. James!

This is the man we have all been waiting for, admit it, since book one you have been craving this book and the above quote is one of the main reasons why. There is no doubt in my mind that any one who picked up Royally Screwed fell in immediate and unwavering love with Logan and you have just been bidding your time through two (awesome, mind you) books to get to his story. Here's this broody, a bit mysterious, pulled himself up from his boot straps kind of guy and you know he deserves, no needs, his own happily ever after from the first moment you meet him and yet he can't have it. He can't have the one thing that could fulfill him, that could make his life complete. The reasons, because that one thing is:

1. Too young.
2. His charge.
3. Too sweet.
4. His boss's sister in law
5. The sister of the Prince's wife, the sister-in-law of the King
6. She is out of your reach

but what if she isn't. What if her sly glances, her flirty behavior, her kindness isn't just a school girl crush. What if her 'crush' last years as you watch her accomplish her dreams, watch her fall down and pick herself back up, watch her grow and mature...what if the way she looks at you like you could be the one to save her never wavers, what if you finally took the chance and gave yourself to her, what if you gave up everything you thought you wanted but got everything you ever needed back in return?

I loved watching these two. I loved watching them both grow and mature, because Logan had a lot of growing up to do himself. He may have been a hardened war hero, but that didn't mean his journey was complete. I loved seeing Ellie in a bit of a different light. We are given these ideas about her in the previous books and while she is some of those things ( I mean come on when we first meet her she is still a teen) there is so much more (yes, yes, she's an onion) underneath the superficial look we are first given.

I loved the slow burn, the years of angst and desire that build between these two. At first I thought it was going to bog me down and I'd quickly get bored of watching them play off each other but never get anyway, but Emma writes this story beautifully giving us all the time that the characters need and in a way that this our tension building right along side the characters so that when the time comes it is explosive, beautiful, (Yes, I am a woman who has never met an adjective she didn't like)heartfelt, powerful, joyous. I can honestly say that in the case of Royally Endowed there is absolutely no other way that Logan and Ellie's story could have been written. Had they come together to soon neither of them would have been in the place they needed to be to have the relationship they needed. They needed to be able to be strong for one another because their story wasn't always easy and rarely ever smooth. If they had come together when she was younger it would have felt contrived and wrong and as the reader I would have walked away thinking there's no way that couple is going to make it but now, now I can say they can weather any storm and that they will stand strong together and with their family.

Emma Chase has become one of my favorite authors. She knows how to weave the romance, humor, and poignant moments beautifully giving us stories that are fulfilling and complete. You walk away believing in the world and characters she creates and maybe feeling that in some small way they have changed how you look at your relationships. I love the sense of family she writes, the truth in family being just as much the people you choose to make your family as the ones who are born to be your family.

If you are a contemporary romance fan you can't go wrong with an Emma Chase book and this series is one of my favorites. They can be read as standalone, but you now I always feel books even like this should be read in order other wise you miss out on the little nuances, especially when it comes to Royally Endowed. There is so much history between these two and while it is not the focus of the first two books there are glimpses that I think are important to the over all story of Logan and Ellie.
Don't hesitate to pick up this book or series, I promise you, you won't be disappointed.

This was a cute read. Quick too, but still really cute and enjoyable.

I loved seeing Ellie and Logan's relationship as it developed over the years. And I also loved seeing how their relationship developed alongside both Olivia and Nicholas's as well as Sarah and Henry's.

I really disliked the Queen. I'm sorry, but she just pissed me off. She'd kind of ticked me off back in Royally Screwed, but at the same time I was like, well, but she is the queen and she's trying to make sure that her country stays together. But then there's the fact that she first of all not only didn't like that Ellie's name was Ellie, but refused to call her by her name, instead, giving her one that she thought was "more appropriate" or something. Didn't like that. Then the fact that she flat-out, to Ellie's face, told her that by choosing Logan, she was settling just really made me mad. She softened just a little in my opinion when the twins arrived, but only slightly.

Ellie and Logan were just great together. Although I did get frustrated with them individually at certain points (Logan kind of taking to heart what the Queen said, although I think that reaction was more fear/shock than anything; Ellie for trying to yell at Nicholas after Logan told him about the two of them) but for the most part, they were great together. I loved how Logan's protective side was kind of always there (yes, I know he was a bodyguard and that was, you know, his job, but still!) yet as the years wore on and he and Ellie spent more time together, it evolved into a more tender protective side. *sighs* Those two were just amazing!

I really think this is a good way to wrap up this story, yet at the same time, I want more! Any possibility of something set several years down the line, like stories of all the children and their love interests? Please?
