THE CINDERELLA PRINCESS by Melissa McClone

This book, I saw it on Netgalley and I instantly liked the cover. I also love the author,  +Melissa McClone's, facebook giveaways so I gave this book a shot and I enjoyed it.

Emily Rogers is not disillusioned by life and knows that she does not need a man to make her life complete.  She is strong and capable to do anything on her own, and right now, Emily had her sights set on becoming Partner in her firm.

Emily has done more than enough to earn the title of Partner, but the higher ups at work are making her jump through flaming hoops in order to get her rightful position.

In order to become Partner, Emily was given a new assignment but this recent assignment is torture for Emily since she is going to need all of her wits about her  to find a wife for a real life prince. 

Emily does not want to babysit a spoiled brat of a Prince, but she is determined to do this and achieve her dream of becoming Partner.  Unfortunately, Prince Lucus disappears on the crew.

Prince Luc's name is a direct link to scandal.  When the rumors associated with his son's name was too much, Luc's father put his foot down and made him an ultimatum.  Either Luc got a wife or he would be disowned.

Since Luc is a Prince it is customary for him to marry a Princess and the way for him to do that is to make a television show about his quest for love.  A few days into the show Luc could not take the shallowness and escapes to a place that he finds is safe.  Unfortunately, it was not safe for long when the producers of the show sent an uptight American after him.

Luc knows that he must marry a Princess to escape his father's wrath and  to save himself from being disowned, but the fiery American sets his heart and body on fire.  Too bad she wants nothing to do with him outside of finding him a bride.  Can Luc change Emily's mind? Find out in the first installment of the Royal Holiday Series, The Cinderella Bride.

This is my first book by +Melissa McClone and I enjoyed it.  This book reminded me of a young adult book.  It was sweet and cute and missing many of the qualities needed to make it into an adult book.

Emily was firm but, fair.  She heard many rumors of Prince Lucas and was judging him as well.  But after she got to know him, she did not stick with the world's bad opinion of him, she actually found out the truth about him.  I suspected the truth early on in the book and I was happy to have my suspicions confirmed.

This is a surprising thing since based on Emily's background, she is supposed to make her distrustful of all men, but I am glad that she was a bigger person than that.

I fell in love with Prince Lucas from the very beginning.  He was so charming and got on Emily's nerves.  When he visited one of his princesses, my heart just melted.

The love story between Lucas and Emily is well written but still reminds me of a young adult book instead of an adult one.  It was sweet, cute and adorable and I want to read the rest of the story.


HAPPY READING!

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it.  Frustrated with the way things were, hel...

MY CURVY VALENTINE by Sugar Jamison

This book is tied with Gentlemen Prefers Curves for the best book in this series.  Maggie is such a beautiful person, but she is also clueless. I could tell that she was has been married to the same guy for years before the both of them even knew it. Deciding to quit her high paying job as a bio-medical engineer and to follow her fashion dreams by working in a clothing store that caters to the full figured woman like herself. You might think that Maggie Calhoun must be out of her mind, especially since this all came about with her parents divorce. And you would be right, Maggie is out of her mind.  Out of her mind in bliss.  This is the first time in her life that she is doing something for herself, and she plans to enjoy it.  That is until her brother's best friend, Alex, moved his bakery beneath her apartment. Every morning she is awakened by sexual dreams that include whatever is being made in the bakery each morning.  Her dreams o...

WICKED BOND by Sawyer Bennett

Finally, we come to Bridger's story and I must admit, it was not what I was expecting.  Bridger Payne is a walking enigma that no one can quite figure out.  Even his best friend don't know the full story of where Bridger came from. In the Silo, Many want him but not can have him, well not the real him anyway. That's because Bridger lives with so much pain, a pain he has no reason to get rid of since the pain is what makes him survive. If you've read the books from the series you would know Bridger. He helped each and every one of my lovable guys to get their head out their arse and go after their women. You would think that a man that gives such good advice would also take his own preaching, but no such luck. Bridger more believes in happily ever after for everyone other than him. In his mind, he's too f*cked up to be helped and he's learned to accept that, but then Maggie was unexpectedly dumped in his care and Bridger found emotion he's neve...
