I actually read this series out of order (read book one, then book three, then book two), but this was still a fun, fast read that only took me about two hours to finish.

This installmant of the royal Baranov family from the country of Alaska centers around Princess Alexandria Baranov, the sister who saved her father's life at the end of THE ROYAL TREATMENT. Suffering from insomnia, nightmares, and a wee bit of paranoia after that event, King Al (along with the royal doctor, Dr. Pohl), decide that Alexandria could use some time away.

What ensues is Alex quickly arriving in North Dakota, even more quickly falling in lust with Dr. Sheldon "Shel" Rivers, lots of hot sex, royal misunderstandings, groveling, faster-than-the-speed-of-light courtships, and more sex.

If you like MJD's stories, you'll like THE ROYAL PAIN. If you want a bunch of character development, deep meaning, a lack of swearing, and the answers to the meaning of life, you won't find it within these pages.

All in all, a fun piece of fluff! ( )

Mary Janice Davidson has quickly become one of my favorite authors..The way she writes intrigues me, is sexy, and makes me laugh. ALL IN ONE BOOK! Every time I pick up on of her books i finish it that same day because I can't put it down. She is hilarious! You will love every minute of this book and will want to dive right into the next one asap! ( )

Cute romance set in the "country of Alaska" and North Dakota between an Alaskan princess and a reluctant marine biologist. A bit of fun fluff. ( )
