Daniil by Kat Mizera
Royal Protectors #5
Contemporary Romantic Suspense
Release: November 10, 2025
My reputation as Europe’s most charming playboy suits me perfectly. As a prince, a member of Parliament, and a Royal Protector, my life is a constant balance between danger and duty.
Relationships have no place in my world. Until Courtney.
I wanted the fiery, red-haired beauty from the first moment I laid eyes on her. My sister-in-law’s military helicopter pilot friend is like no one I’ve ever met.
It only took one touch to know, once wouldn’t be enough. Then she disappeared without a word–twice.
Now she’s gone—completely off the grid—and no one has heard from her in months.
I’m called in to find her, but it takes no persuading. Because this hunt… it’s personal.
And I’m in no way prepared for the secrets she’s been keeping.
She doesn’t just dislike me—she despises everything I stand for. Everything I am.
But it doesn’t matter because I’m not a man who backs down.
Especially when the stakes are this high.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Daniil and Courtney spend a few night together that will change their lives forever. Danill can not forget her and would like to see her again, which proves to be a bit difficult since she disappeared from the face of the earth, which worried everyone to a point they sent him to find her.
Courtney fell hard for the sexy man but she knows she could never fit into his world. When they meet again she has some explaining to do. The story takes us though ups and downs, through out which Daniil is doing all he can to show her, how here and her “secret” is special to him. He will stop at nothing to protect and keep them at the end of it all.
Ending a series always feels a little sentimental but if it had to end, it closed on a great note.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Royal Protectors series is one of my favorite series by Kat Mizera. I’m ridiculously sad to see it end, but I think what comes next is going to be just as powerful!
Note: I never say this lol, but if you’re new to this world, it’s okay to not read all the books before you get to this one. At the beginning of this book there’s a “timeline/reading order” summary that gives you just a hint of everyone who came before, and it should be enough for you not to be “lost” as one normally would be when reading series out of order. Okay, maybe I’m just a little OCD about this whole reading from the beginning, but you’ll be fine if you just read here.
Okay then, let’s chat about this story …
As per usual, the intrigue and suspense were pretty spectacular, and it will keep you on your toes for most of the story. The secrets have secrets, as I like to say, and emotions run very high throughout the storyline. The best part of this story is that thru Kat’s word wizardry, the reader doesn’t just get to “read” this story, but they also “feel” it. At least that was the case with me. Every circumstance that unfolds and every plot point that turns this story on its axis sparked with energy and I felt it all. #winning There were times that I was frustrated, furious, deliriously happy, sad, mad and everything in between but through it all, there was this energy to their story that kept me on the edge. You can’t ask for a better feeling than that for a “suspense” story!
