REVIEW: Sometimes, when your stupid romantic notions lead you into yet another disaster, haven’t you wished for someone to come to the rescue? Seduced by the Prince provides that hero. Max is a prince in seclusion, working his way through grief after his mother’s death. Leontyne comes in with the blizzard and starts unthawing his heart. She needs both romance and passion but her lack of trust blocks the way. Just when she opens up, Max’s secret tears away at that trust. A truly delightful tale with magical fairy tale qualities. I received an Advanced Reader Copy and voluntarily provided this review.

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: His Sovereign Highness Prince Cedric Maximilian Kastelic is on a quiet holiday in a chalet in The Poconos. No one outside his cabinet of ministers knows where he is. It is meant to be a private time when he can grieve his beloved mother’s death and reconnect with her family.

During a blizzard, Max finds himself hosting Leontyne “Tina” Cooper, whose vehicle ran off the road a mile from his chalet. She is ill and he insists that she stay until she is well again. It soon becomes clear that she has no idea who he is. He finds her intriguing and more beautiful than anyone he has ever known, and he is drawn to her. He invites her to his coronation, without telling her who he is. Max knows that she feels something for him too, and despite their age difference, he wants nothing more than to keep seeing her.

Tina arrives for the celebrations and is flabbergasted when she discovers that her knight in shining armor is none other than the Sovereign Prince himself. Embarrassed and angry with him for deceiving her, Tina forces Max to fight for her forgiveness. Max must convince Tina that he is not like the other men she has known, that they belong together, and that she is what is best for him and for Lauenstein.… (meer)

REVIEW: “It’s only as complicated as you make it, child. Love ain’t about time or distance…it’s about feelings, about heart connection, about souls tying themselves together so tight nobody can break them apart.” Willa Mae’s grandmother so eloquently sums up this book. Niall and Willa Mae both have Swag that gets in the way of love. It is a charming story of friendship and passion. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: Theirs is a strictly business relationship...until it isn't.

Despite his family’s opposition, Niall Drummond is going ahead with his plans to renovate and upgrade Bannock Castle. Willa Mae Jamison, a savvy, sassy American property developer, helps him with his plans. She’s feisty enough to hold her own against him, and clever and creative in her ideas for his castle. He’s attracted to her, but he’s not looking to start anything serious. At least, that’s what he tells himself, because he refuses to admit that he’s fallen for her.

Willa Mae Jamison falls head over heels for Niall Drummond the minute they meet, but she doesn’t believe in love at first sight. She does everything she can to avoid getting too close to him, but she can’t resist his charm. It doesn’t help that he’s as smart as a whip and seductive as sin. His arrogance and bull-headedness should make her despise him, but with every look and every touch, Niall captures a little more of her heart. She must find a way to resist him...right?

Niall and Willa Mae struggle to get out of their own way long enough to see the truth they both deny. When Niall makes a shocking discovery that complicates his plans, he knows that he must choose Willa Mae or he will lose her and his chance for a happy ending.… (meer)
