Bride by Royal Decree by Caitlin Crews

4.0

A lost princess, assumed long dead, is found twenty years later by the man she was promised betrothed to at birth.

Reza, King of the Constantines, leaves his European country and travels to a small town in Vermont to rescue her promised bride.

What he finds is a bleached blonde, spitfire, on her knees scrubbing the floor of the coffee shop where she works. From the very first moment, Maggy’s spitfire personality lashes out at Reza in so many amusing ways.

Assuming that Maggie would be happy to be told that she is a princess, Reza was shocked when Maggy kept throwing no holds barred insults at him.

Their first meeting in the coffee shop grabbed me and got me hooked. The rest of the book had a few slower bits, but Maggy’s sass rescued it when it started getting dull.

It was an interesting take on the Cinderella story and I lurrrve my fairy tales! This was a fun read because of Maggy and Reza’s oh so unwilling attraction to her. It was fun watching him try to fight against the inevitable.
