A likeable and readable romance
4 stars
When Paige Barnes finds herself scared and alone on the dark streets of Moscow she is more than surprised to find herself rescued by the intriguing and mysterious Alexei Voronov – a Russian prince and her boss’s arch rival.
Although she knows she should stay away, once Alexei sets his sights on shy, bespectacled Paige neither can anticipate the passion that flares between them. But what are his true motives and how will their relationship develop when he discovers she is carrying his royal heir?
As soon as I started reading this book I began to enjoy it. Unlike other Modern books I have read, Alexei is the perfect blend of arrogance and kindness. You can understand why he acts as he does and he comes across as the perfect, brooding hero. Paige, too, is a good heroine and although shy, she isn’t as insipid or weak as other heroines I have read even if I did want her to be a little bit bolder when it came to her sister. Together they have good chemistry and a relationship you can root for.
The story was interesting and kept you wanting to read and turn the pages. The storyline is quite simple but that’s not necessarily a bad thing, especially since there isn’t any annoying secondary romance to distract from the main love story.
If you’re not a fan of romance novels or don’t enjoy Mills and Boon novels then perhaps this isn’t the book for you! However, if you do like a good romantic story that will allow you to escape for a couple of hours then I can definitely recommend this book. It’s got good characters who work well together and a storyline that’s interesting and keeps you wanting to turn the pages. I enjoyed it a lot. 4 stars.
