The Accidental Princess if a companion book to The Accidental Countess and is best read after it, but it can stand alone. The story has two strong willed, passionate main characters that have a sizzling forbidden romance between a Marquess' daughter and a lieutenant in the British army. Their attraction threatens to ruin their lives, but a mysterious heritage looms over the lieutenant that pulls him in a way he never expected or wanted. The author is a masterful writer who has a knack at keeping your attention. This book is a must read! I hope the author continues this series for her loyal fans!

I really enjoyed this story. It was relatively simple and unconvoluted. A fairytale. The hero and heroine were both likable characters and that right there is a major plus for me. The chemistry was believable and the love scenes written well. My only disappointment would have to be in the supporting plot. It was simply ok. It contained a bit of mystery and though I do enjoy mystery novels as well, I found myself caring little for the mystery aspect and more for the love story. Mostly though, I read a romance novel simply for the interaction of the hero and heroine and to watch the relationship unfold, so this didn't deter me from enjoying the book over all.
Also, the kindle version was not overwhelmingly riddled with typos (for which I was very grateful!).

This was a fun read! The characters left me wanting more which is always a good sign. There was a good amount of sexual tension which I think is part of this book's charm. Believable characters who stuck to their traits. Well written with a good plot!

A lightweight, but enjoyable fairy tale along classic lines with intrigue, heroes and villains, titles and romance.
The chemistry of the relationship between the main characters is credible and raises the story above the framework of the somewhat predictable storyline.

Loved it! I discovered a new Author I wasn't familiar with but will be looking foward to reading more of her books.

Loved the characters in this book. Best of all of Michelle's books. Enjoyed the change in period. It was well written and kept me from putting it down. Finished it in one evening as it was a quick read.
