Relationships
Your Character (The Royal Romance)
Daniel and Your Character (The Royal Romance) are co-workers at a bar before you are whisked away to Cordonia. In Book 3, Daniel comes to your wedding.
Main Character (Rules of Engagement)
It is unclear if Daniel was Main Character (Rules of Engagement)'s waiter in France (during her date with Business Guy) or at the speakeasy (during her date with Bartender), but the waiter is given the name "Daniel" in Rules of Engagement, Book 2, Chapter 19, when Bartender has the night off for the Captain's Ball and Daniel is filling in for his bartender duties. Later, when Party-Girl Sister calls for an ESM (emergency sibling meeting), she pushes a tray of appetizers on him to deliver to partygoers.
Your Character (Make That Date!)
If you pick Daniel as your date, you go for dinner at a fancy restaurant, and you can share your first kiss. Later when he walks you home, he reveals to you his true identity as a monster. He apologizes for lying to you, and tells you that you can walk away if this is too much for you. However, you can tell him that he's amazing no matter what he looks like, and invite him inside.
