It's not that I mind romances that have princesses as their main characters - it just bothers me when they are from invented European principalities between Bavaria and Switzerland (a Germanic region) but are given Russian names and accents. Nyet?This is a gossamer thin novella involving a snow-storm, a determined young widow and a handsome hero who is more than usually susceptible to the sight of a lovely young woman asleep on a bench with lax security and chaperones. PRINCESS IN DISGUISE by Karen Hawkins is an exciting historical romance set in Scotland. #1.5 of "The Duchess Diaries". Princess Menshikov of Oxenburg, Alexandra Romanovin,yes isn't that a mouth full is through being courted so she is off to Scotland in disguise. James Keith,Earl of Kintore,Viscount Stonehaven and Baron Urie,another mouth full becomes her rescuer,and so much more. A quick fun romp in Scotland. A possible love at first sight kinda of thing. A Russian Princess and a Scottish Earl,who would have thought. Another enjoyable read by this author. Received for an honest review from the publisher and Net Galley.RATING: 4HEAT RATING: MILDREVIEWED BY: AprilR, My Book Addiction Reviews
Do You like book Princess In Disguise (2013)?
And this is the reason why I hate reading novellas. Too fast, too abrupt, too... unbelievable.
