The Controversial Princess by Jodi Ellen Malpas
5.0
Book 1: 4.5 stars!
“When I’m done with you, Your Highness, you’re going to be questioning who your true king is.”
I had high expectations for this book, and it didn't disappoint! This is an epic love story with a strong, independent heroine that deals with the same insecurities and problems that we all do, just on a much larger scale. There is treachery, lies, deceit, tragedy, but most of all, this story is one about a timeless love that defies all odds. There were times that I was frustrated with Princess Adeline, but after a particular stressful scene in the book, I finally understood exactly how sheltered she had been her entire life. Just leaving it all behind wasn't as easy as I wanted to believe. That being said, it's hard to believe a woman not immediately dropping everything for the kinky bastard that is Josh Jameson. I loved every side of him: the Hollywood sex God, the demanding lover, and, of course, the smitten soulmate.
Josh is the only thing that matters to me in the crazy world I’ve been born into. The only person I bow to is him.
I have to admit, I was not expecting that cliffy. Thank God, the finale of this duet will be delivered to my Kindle any day now. I'm worried for the future of Adeline and Josh, but I also know they will fight tooth and nail for their love. I will post a more extensive review after the conclusion of their story, but the beginning was just too good to not say anything about it!
“I get to play with you. With this.” His gaze plummets down my body. “And I’m quite possessive of my play things.”
