The Princess

This book came highly recommended to me and after reading it I can remember why I'm not such a fan of inspirational romance books.The premise is interesting enough: a widowed prince, Nick, must remarry soon due to weird laws and has his family arrange a marriage for him with Shelby who is not royalty. Shelby and Nick must learn to love each other and more importantly trust one another as various difficulties arise.This is supposed to be set in a modern kingdom but it is all so unrealistic -- the royal family tromps around to the mall, restaurants, etc. and no one even stops them or anything! Also, I know it's inspirational fiction, but even the religion was a little over the top. It was all a little too perfect. And one of the main show more problems in the book is the prince trying to convert an 8 year old. I mean, come on..Let's just say if I want to read something like this again, I'll stick to Janette Oke's books which are much more believable. show less

I've read this book so many times. The story is fully ingrained in my head but it continues to be one of my favorites so I'm going to keep on reading it over and over again. I'm not a religious person so I usually glaze over the religious parts of this book since it is technically a Christian fiction novel. Shelby is an adorable main character and I absolutely love the way the romance between the two of them blooms.

An arranged marriage into the royal family, learning to put self aside for the good of others, learning to trust another?this is where shelby finds herself.

This book is on my list of favorites, and I would recommend it to anyone….especially those who are new to the dating or the relationship scene. It is very helpful and is a very enjoyable read.
