The Soldier E-BOOK

What if Princess Louise woke up when the Soldier's Tinderbox dog brought her to him?
As prophesied, Princess Louise is destined to marry a common soldier, but her father keeps her locked up in the castle to prevent that fate. When a dog with giant eyes, commanded by a magic Tinderbox, takes her to her soldier's bed in the dead of night, it seems the prophecy will come true after all.
Despite having all the wealth he can imagine and a magic Tinderbox to summon guard dogs, Nicholas still longs for something beyond material possessions. The moment he catches a glimpse of Princess Louise locked up in the castle, her ethereal grace strikes him and he knows, without a doubt, that she is the one for him.

Excerpt:
"It is so soft, and hard at the same time," I whispered as I stroked his length, fascinated by the feel of him in my hands.
His hand covered mine, and he stroked it with quick movements. "It is soft, so I will not hurt you on entering, but hard to give you all the pleasure you deserve. I only grow hard for you, my Princess."
"Louise," I said, shaking my head. "Do not address me with my title, as we are equals here in the bedroom and we will be in our marriage."
"Louise," he said reverently as he cupped my cheek with his free hand. "I will call it out in pleasure and say it for the rest of my days. I am Nicholas."
"I know," I said, and a blush crept up my cheeks. "Nicholas, the brave and generous soldier. A witch prophesied I would marry a common soldier when I was born, but I never imagined it to be someone so perfect as you."
