TEMPTING THE PRINCE

by Christi Barth

Sexy Misadventures of Royals, #3

Publication Date: August 24, 2020

Genres: Adult, Entangled: Amara, Contemporary, Romance, Royalty

I can tell you from experience—a whole lot of complications.

You see, four months ago, my all-American sister, Kelsey, found out that she’s not actually my sister—she’s a princess of a country we’d never heard of. She begged me to come along when she was whisked off to her new palace, so here I am. An outsider who doesn’t fit in anywhere.

Now that she’s settled, I should go back to my exciting new career in New York. I absolutely should not stay in a country where I got shot (long story), where I suck so badly at the national sport that I accidentally murdered the symbol of the monarchy in front of half the country, and—oh yeah—where I can’t stop ogling Kelsey’s actual brother.

The Crown Prince.

The man who has to marry a very important princess. (not me)

The man who must create the next heir to the throne. (without me)

The man I absolutely can never be with. (remember that long story?)

The man who just gave me the best sex of my life…

Did I mention that it’s complicated?

My Review:

4 Out Of 5 Stars

Genre: Romance, Royal-Court--

Be aware that this is the third book in the series. But that being said, I have not read the first two books in the series and felt like Tempting the Prince stood just fine on it's own. I loved this book and did not feel like I was missing out on anything. I do now really really want to read the first two books but I have zero regrets reading this out of order. I will say that the ending of this book appeared to wrap up the relationships from all three books, so it might spoil those for you (but I love spoilers, so I was not bothered in the slightest).

And in here, I’m as safe as the palace. This is a Royal Protection Service hangout. Half these tables are filled with off-the-clock bodyguards.”

 Mallory whipped her head left and right, taking in the relaxed crowd and noting that nobody looked out of control. Or desperate. Or even rough around the edges. It was the Disneyland version of a bar; spotless, charming, and far from exciting.

This was the perfect combination of charming, romantic, royal-court politics and heat. I read this book on a weekend, completely swept up in the characters. I loved both the main characters as people as well as a couple and the story was dual narrated which is my favorite for a romance. Tempting the Prince is much more about the people than the plot, dealing more with character depth and relationship dynamics.

This is a great book (or series, apparently) for anyone who loves themselves some royal family, relationship drama, and the best kind of HEA.

You do have a reputation for… I don’t know…” She leaned in closer. “Getting off on getting women out of ballgowns?” Then she and Kelsey burst into giggles. 

“For Christ’s sake. These balls are deadly dull. Hooking up’s my reward for getting through the evening.”  After tsking , Kelsey said solemnly, “Women are neither cookies nor medals, Christian.”

“I know that. Believe me, every one of them was ready to hand me a medal for exemplary service by the time we finished . Nobody was used. And no promises were made.”
