Book Description

Series: Silhouette Romance | Publication Date: March 1, 2005

Dearest Godmother,

I only have one more match to make to break this curse...if only I wasn't utterly distracted by my devastatingly handsome boss, resort owner Alexander Rochelle. I know I should stay away from him--I am betrothed to a prince in my country, after all--but Alexander's kindness, his humor and his sexy kisses are keeping me up at night, in spite of my better judgment.

And now Fate has decreed Alexander as the next match to find true love, in spite of his apparent disbelief in tender emotions. If I can convince him forever is a promise worth making, is it too much to hope that the woman he vows to cherish will be me?

Your lovelorn goddaughter,

Princess Meredith

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting love story!, March 14, 2005

This review is from: Twice A Princess (Silhouette Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

If you like a little magic in your romance, be sure to read this charmer by Susan Meier. The tale of two spellbound royals was a page turning romp. Princess Merry and Prince Alec must overcome all personal obstacles, including a new spin on the old fairytale curse, to find true love and beat the odds against them--and any chance of a happily-ever-after fate.

I liked Merry and Alec. I also like stories where there are secrets between a man and a woman who are falling for each other, especially a secret that threatens to foil their future. You know the secret has to be revealed, only you never know when or how. Or how much damage will result.

I've enjoyed many of Meier's previous books. In TWICE A PRINCESS, I wasn't disappointed. Once again, Meier does what she does best--weaves a web of enchantment to keep her readers and fans enthralled.

I'm afraid I have to disagree with the reviewer who gave this book 2 stars. I thoroughly enjoyed it, from the fabulous cover to the satisfying ending. Merry and Prince Alec's tale was witty and charming, a total Cinderella fantasy that had me smiling often. Nice escapist fiction!

2.0 out of 5 stars Will the Real Spoiled Brat please stand up?, March 9, 2005

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Twice A Princess (Silhouette Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

In this final installment of the "In a Fairytale World . . ." series, enchanted princess-turned-resort-manager Merry Montrose finds her own True Love with (not surprisingly) Alexander Rochelle,resort-owner-in-disguise.

Except that Alexander is really Prince Alec, the guy Merry has been betrothed to all this time. But SHE doesn't know that.

The disappointing part is that Alexander, who was shaping up to be a pretty decent guy in the previous books, here morphs into a cynical, critical, short-sighted, self-centered jerk. He constantly puts the worst possible spin on Merry's motives, and has an incredibly high opinion of himself. Meanwhile, Merry has developed a conscience, so it's even harder to imagine her paired with him.

Also irritating is the plot device of the curse Merry is under; here, every time the lead couple gets close to working something out, Meier introduces a new aspect of the curse to foil their plans. THAT gets old really fast.

So--read this if you're dying to finish the series. And remember: they lived happily ever after--sort of.
