The royal wedding of the year . . . might just be a fairy tale . . .

Keeping their secret puts his dream job in jeopardy, but revealing it will destroy the woman who is inching her way into his heart.

Princess Tahira grew up not worrying about being pushed into an arranged marriage, but after her mother’s near-death illness, King Rajeemh orders his only daughter to choose a husband within forty days or have one chosen for her. With the deadline hanging over her head, Tahira escapes with her cousins on a cruise for one last taste of freedom, but the vacation turns into a horrifying experience they never could have predicted.

Trident Security operative Darius Knight has been working undercover for several months, infiltrating a human trafficking cartel. Just when he’s almost prepared to take them down, a new shipment arrives, along with a major complication. If he saves the woman whom he’s guarded in the past, his cover will be blown. But if he doesn’t, she’ll suffer a fate worse than death.

When the rescue doesn’t go according to plan, Darius makes a rash decision that will affect both their lives. How far will he go to protect her?

**The Trident Security and its spinoff series contain passionate romance, nail-biting suspense, and happily-ever-afters.

A Princess in trouble, an op that has gone FUBAR and two strong personalities who both want and need to do the right thing. Princess Tahira is facing not only her own personal nightmare but the outdated moralistic views of a whole nation. Can Darius Knight rescue her from physical harm and the emotional damage her kidnapping has caused?
Samantha A Cole has once again written a story that grabs you by the throat and refuses to let you go till the very last word. If you haven't read any works by this author before you won't be disappointed and if you have, this will probably be an auto-buy

Wow! This book will definitely have you swearing and possibly setting off on your own man hunt. The characters are three dimensional and their storyline is well written and thought out. I do love the bonds these black ops team members have with each other, and I absolutely adore that we continue to be able to hang out with the rest of the gang. Cannot wait to see who is next!

I loved what Samantha did here with this story. It had my attention as soon as I saw her name on the cover and if you’ve read the previous books in this series you will know what I am talking about. Samantha’s attention to detail is incredible. She never does things half way.

This story just grabbed me, from the opening pages I hooked. Darius is part of Omega Team that is part of Trident Security. All members are either former Navy Seals or currently serving. Nearly all of them are Dominants and in committed relationships. Darius is not part of the lifestyle, he has nothing against it, it just hasn’t interested him. While working undercover in Argentina he finds himself in a completely explosive situation. Posing as a playboy with money to burn and working with a drug lord who has a penchant for trafficking innocent woman into the sex slavery ring he comes across Princess Tahira and her two cousins in the dungeon of the mansion he is staying in. He has done security detail for her before when she has visited the States with her family. He got to know her and found she wasn’t the spoilt woman they’d first all encountered. She has grown up and matured and wasn’t the young woman they all used to avoid and being assigned as her security detail.

Seeing her like this, scared, he vows to do all he can to get her out. He knows he can’t allow her to see him for fear of blowing his cover his only mission now is to get word to his other team mates that the mission has now changed. They need to get these woman out before the auction.

Princess Tahria has no clue who has taken them. All she knows is waking up cold with her cousins in a cell. There are other woman here also in the same situation. All have been drugged and kept here. She knows her cousins are scared and she will do all she can to protect them.

When Darius manages to get word to his team-mates they know they need to move fast before this becomes a diplomatic incident. But when he gets back there he fears he may have been too late for the princess. Rescuing her he does all he can but he knows something was taken from her she will never get back. Vowing he will do all he can to protect her he puts his plan into action.

Princess Tahria is broken, she fears what will become of her. The life she had mapped out is gone. The fear of being ostracised is a reality that she now faces. When Darius offers her hope she can’t help but be moved and takes what he offers.

From here it’s non-stop. This man is absolutely incredible. His honour, integrity and strength is something Samantha delivers on in spades.

The twists and turns in this story keep you guessing right to the end.

Another fantastic read that delves in the BDSM lifestyle with the utmost care. Her knowledge and research into the lifestyle is a journey all on its own. Forget what you’ve read before or any movie that tends to glamourize it. Samantha is only a handful of authors I’ve read who have been spot on in what there writing about. It’s informative and its real. The dynamics involved in a D/s relationship is quiet moving. The trust alone is something that I crave. And when you find an author who takes the time to write it well you tend to keep them on your one-click list.

An absolute must read.

This book is an excellent addition to the Trident Security world that Samantha A Cole has created. All of the best loved characters from the original Sexy Six Pack are featured, along with their colleagues from Team Omega.

This story features Darius ‘Batman’ Knight, an Omega team member, who comes to the rescue of regular client Princess Tahira of Timansur. Despite the differences in the backgrounds, upbringings and life in general, Darius is able to help the Princess in a way that will link them irrevocably. Will they ever admit the true feelings behind the façade they present? Are they really only lying to themselves?

As usual, the quality of writing and storytelling is exemplary and complements every book that has gone before it. I truly love this world that the author has created. There’s love, passion, action, suspense and some really great characters. Long may it continue!

We come across Tahira and her royal family a few times in Ms Cole’s previous books and she is a character who has always intrigued me. I am over the moon that she has now got her own book and what a story it was!

Tahira’s horrific kidnapping and the events that happen in captivity, are heart-breaking and caused me to shed a tear. The subject is handled with care and respect and this shines throughout the book, especially when Tahira is still suffering from the trauma long after rescue comes.

The relationship that Tahira and Darius build is heart-warming. Whilst what may have been a charade at first, I felt their deep connection early on and was cheering them on throughout.

Ms Cole always produces a well rounded story that will keep you hooked throughout. Forty Days & One Knight proves to be another winner and I highly recommend.

Potential trigger warning relating to kidnap and rape
No plot spoilers
There are no errors that I can recall.
There are a few errors with royal protocol but by and large the reader can ignore them because the plotline is so engaging, but the one that I can't ignore is the multiple references to Tahira's crown.
She is a princess, they don't wear crowns. Only a king or queen wear crowns, hence the term 'crowned'
Meh, doesn't matter.
There are a few very light sex scenes (apart from the upsetting rape) and no BDSM scenes.
There is, of course, plenty of swearing.
Tahira and Darius have been excellent side characters during the series and it truly is a love story, with a twisty plot!
I have loved the Trident series, the characterisation is absolutely perfect throughout and even if you are not into BDSM you can't argue that the romance isn't there because it very much is.There
I have no problem recommending the book but would advise reading from the beginning to obtain the best reading experience.
