YES!!!, June 19, 2006
This review is from: His Royal Love-Child (Harlequin Presents) (Mass Market Paperback)
Dannette Michaels is in love with Prince Marcello Scorsolini, but his continued insistence on keeping their relationship a secret to protect her from the press, is tearing her apart. After the tragic death of his young wife, Marcello is convinced that he can never love another woman, although Dannette has slowly been working her way into his heart. Marcello is stunned when she tells him she can no longer hide in the shadows of his life and that they can't see each other anymore. Convinced he can change her mind, Dannette and Marcello are shocked to discover that Dannette is pregnant before he can begin his campaign to keep her in his life and bed. Now Marcello is determined to convince Dannette to be his wife. Dannette has no plans to marry Marcello, even if she is expecting his child, after all, his heart is buried with his wife and a marriage without love is no marriage at all, she believes. Can Marcello admit his true feelings for Dannette and even more importantly, convince her of them?
YES! I loved this story! I have to admit to that I was little leery of this second Royal Brides book by Lucy Monroe because I really didn't care for the hero in her first book, The Prince's Virgin Wife (Harlequin Presents #2535). But, Lucy Monroe delivers with His Royal Love-Child! Marcello is everything that I've come to love in Lucy Monroe's heroes! The passion smolders between Dannette and Marcello while the emotion leaps from the pages. Add to this, the hints for the upcoming story for Claudio and Therese, and His Royal Love-Child is a most welcome addition to my keeper shelf!

A delightful story, June 7, 2006
This review is from: His Royal Love-Child (Harlequin Presents) (Mass Market Paperback)
His Royal Love Child is another moving book in Lucy Monroe's Royal Brides Series.
When Danette Michaels started seeing Prince Marcello Scorsolini she knew it had to be in secret. Since they both work together and because the prince was fodder for the gossip rags.
Prince Marcello remembers the press making his late wife's life hell when they didn't produce an heir. Plus he now knew his chances of getting a woman with child were slim. So he was shocked when Danette turns up pregnant.
Danette is no longer willing to be Marcello's little secret. She wants to tell the world but she won't accept his marriage proposal until she has his love. But Marcello is afraid to put his heart on the line again.
Can these two headstrong people realize their hearts desire?
His Royal Love Child is another exceptional book by Lucy Monroe. The sexual tension between them scorches every page. Watching them work through their problems to find an abiding love is what every romance book should be.

This one is a keeper!, June 24, 2006
This review is from: His Royal Love-Child (Harlequin Presents) (Mass Market Paperback)
Prince Marcello Scorsolini is convinced of two things, he could never love another woman after his dead wife, and he can not father a child. Guess what? He is wrong on both.
Marcello broke an important rule dating his employee Danette Michaels; they have had a secret affair, and Danette grew tired of this. Marcello is not ready to make the relationship public, for he is trying to protect them both from the press.
Danette can't stand the secrecy anymore, and she ends the relationship with Marcello. At the following day, just when he is ready to get her back, news broke: the impossible has happened, Danette is pregnant, and now Marcello has more reasons to get Danette back in his life. She is just not willing to make it easy for him.
Take the pleasure to read this story, you will find wonderful heroes, specially for a heroine who knows what she wants in her life and won'nt bargain for less. Marcello is every woman's dream of a prince come true.
I strongly recommend it!
