5.0 out of 5 stars If only he existed!!, September 27, 2000

This review is from: Royal Passion

Jennifer Blake's prince in Royal Passion has a wonderful mix of physical and mental attraction. Nothing needs to be spelt out for him - he just knows! Highly intelligent and intuitive - this man is fathoms deep. There is a great blend of characters, and all of them are unique in themselves. I have read many of Jennifer's books, but keep coming back and re-reading this one as, firstly, I enjoy historical romances, but mainly because the main characters have an integrity that one can only admire. Loved it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this book!, July 26, 2008

This review is from: Royal Passion

This is one of the few romance books that I'll read again and again. It's not perfect. The language can be a bit flowery and sometimes the characters' motivations don't seem perfectly logical, but Blake does an excellent job of creating a sizzling, page-turning chemistry between the two sexy characters. I had tried reading a few other Blake novels and consider them a waste of my time. But this novel will always have a place on my bookshelf.

This review is from: Royal Passion (Hardcover)

This book came exactly as described and was good for the price. I had been looking all year for this book, but when I read it I was a little disappointed by the author. The first book was definitely better, because I couldn't understand what the prince was thinking at all.
