Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 2, 2012
We all fantasize about being swept away by a prince. Christine Merrill paints a fun picture of that fantasy complete with a small foreign country, a royal wedding, and a dashing, sexy prince. Loved it!This novella mentions the movieThe Prisoner of Zendawhich is based on a classicbook. I haven't seen the movie or read the book, but I plan to. What a fun concept. A royal figure must choose between love and country.Merrill can write sexual tension. Yes she can. This story shows that. The sex scene was pretty darn hot too. I enjoyed the humor and sass of the main female character, Dana Miller. The Royal Prince of Seravano was a bit cold at times, but hey, he was under a lot of stress. I think his personality fit the story.This ebook contains more than a handful of typos. It got slightly irritating after a while, but not enough to make me dislike the story. A good editor will fix this. Also, I encourage the author to preview the ebook file on a Kindle or smart phone. The formatting is off in quite a few places.* Review Edit 4/13/12 - The author has uploaded a revised edition.Even with these issues, I still enjoyed the book very much. I'd love to see more titles like this from the author. Her success as a Harlequin author is obvious. Click on her author page to see all of those titles. I feel she would be a great writer for young adult humorous titles. Please give that a try. (We need more humor and fewer books focusing on girls who are angsty vampire bait.)The Tourist of Zenda is a fun, quick read. Pick it up.
