Book Description

Futuristic Romance
Part of the Dragon Lords' Series Universe of Books

To play...

Prince Quinn, royal Ambassador, isn't looking for a serious relationship. In fact, he's never even considered it. Hopping from lover to lover, he's content to enjoy himself, never taking anything but his work seriously. However, when Dr. Tori Elliot is sent to the palace to test for biological weapons, he can't seem to stay away from her.

Or not to play...
Tori Elliot has just finished her last assignment and is on her way to a much needed vacation. But when the Human Intelligence Agency stops her ship and demands she heads up a team on some remote planet, she knows it in her best interest not to refuse. Ever serious, she knows she's there to do a job and no matter what, she's going to act like a professional.

Meeting Prince Quinn, his body pressed against another woman in the palace halls, she knows he's not the man for her. Too bad he's the Ambassador and too sexy for his own good. Fighting her desire, Tori must try to do her job while not succumbing to the playful Var prince.

Warning: The Var Princes were raised by a hard man who put no stock
in love--especially love with one woman. Yeah, we'll see how that works
for them. Contains adult content.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"5 CUPS! Ms. Pillow weaves love into a tale of survival with a generous portion of humor. ... written with a style uniquely belonging to the author." Candy, Coffee Time Review

"5 STARS! Michelle Pillow has the ability to weave her skillfully written words into an extraordinary story..an emotional storyline which is sensually stunning and adds an intriguing mystery to the mix, I was held captive by every word in this book. The Playful Prince proves that Ms. Pillow is a premier writer of passionate romances." EcataRomance

"4 STARS! Readers will enjoy this return to planet Qurilixen for the entertaining story of a second Var prince. Some of the characters may be familiar, but the love story is not; this is a brand-new adventure..touching and humorous. The plot twists will entertain old and new readers alike."Romantic Times

"9/10 The Playful Prince has been very well written by Michelle M Pillow, her style, particularly her 'swear word', being rather unique. This story occasionally brings a smile of happiness to your face, and sometimes a frown of worry, but you will always be engrossed in the storyline. Ms Pillow is definitely an author to look out for!"Novelspot

"4 1/2 HEARTS! This is an awesome story and I couldn't put it down until I finished it...Michelle M. Pillow is fast making a name for herself with her creative and erotic adventures. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next" Angel Brewer, The Romance Studio

5.0 out of 5 stars good romance on another world February 17, 2007
By Cin Dee
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Dr. Tori Elliot is sent to the Var palace on the planet of Qurilixen to test for contamination after a biological weapon was found and removed, there she meets Prince Quinn and they are instantly attracted to each other. At first she fights her desire because she wants to act professional, but he is so playfully sexy, that of course they get together. But then she discovers a threat to the entire planet, at the same time he is trying to deal with these new feelings he has toward her.

The writing and storyline are both good, the passion between them is great. All together a very good book to read.

This is the 3rd book in the Lords of the Var series. Two species live on this male dominated plant, the Draig who are dragon shapeshifters and the Var who are cat shapeshifters. I eagerly await book 4 The Rogue Prince and book 5 The Pirate Prince to be printed.

5.0 out of 5 stars embarrassing November 7, 2010
By sak
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
embarrassing how snookered i got with this frothy, over the top romance series. In this episode, Dr Tori Elliot, over-achieving research scientist is drafted/dragged into temporary service on planet Qurillixen.

Aggravation and attraction develop quickly between her and carefree Var Prince Quinn. While professionalism and logic initially restrain her emotions, Quinn grows increasingly agitated. Tori and Quinn are each well drawn, bold, larger than life--except in their grounding sense of inner doubt.

a continuous mishmash of fun and mayhem. The fun includes, well... The mayhem is biologic weapons, murder, good Var/bad Var. Even with the subplots it's light, escapist. In regards to another review, i did pay somewhat crazy money for an OoP copy. Publisher was also sold out. Worth every penny.
