STORMING THE CASTLE by Eloisa James.STORY BRIEF:Phillipa and Rodney had been friends since childhood.  Their parents want them to marry.  Phillipa does not want to marry Rodney and runs away.  She loves babies and hears that the nearby Prince and his bride have a newborn baby with problems.  Phillipa goes there to work as the baby's nursemaid.  She meets Wick the butler.  Wick is the Prince's half brother.  He feels he can never marry a lady due to his servant-station in life.REVIEWER'S OPINION:I liked Phillipa's actions and conversation when she arrived at the castle and did things for the baby.  The story and how it resolved was good.  It's a short story - maybe a fourth of the length of a regular book.  The narrator was excellent.  There were two sex scenes which were ok, but don't expect hot.  The purpose was showing relationships, not to steam up the reader.This book can be read as a stand-alone, but it's better if you read "A Kiss at Midnight" first.  I enjoyed getting to know Wick in the first book which flowed into this book.DATA:Unabridged audiobook reading time: 3 hrs and 17 mins.  Swearing language: none.  Sexual language: none to mild.
