All play and no work means Princess Margaret may never grow up.
Princess Margaret lives a charmed life. Her older sister, Queen Alexandra, has all the care and all the responsibility in the land; her brother, Prince David, is busy with his young family and royal duties. Margaret's life seems like one perpetual holiday with her boyfriend, Hal.
But when Queen Alix asks her sister to take on more work, and Hal suddenly decides he doesn't want to be a member of the royal family, Margaret finds herself in an unfamiliar place: alone and with a full-time job. She's not sure she likes it – but she's also not sure she has a choice. She knows that she doesn't want to be alone forever. The trouble, though, is that Margaret isn't really sure who she is any more – so how can she possibly know who the right man for her would be?
A sexy, contemporary romance for fans of Bella Andre and Melissa Foster.
4.5 Stars I received this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I was in a major book funk when I picked up this book. I just couldn’t get into a book and then The Princess by S.A. Gordon appeared and I was pleasantly surprised and smiling again. This is the third book in the series and yet I did not read the first two I found that this story could stand alone. The characters of this book are likable, passionate individuals, they have real life situations, make interesting choices, and the chemistry is undeniable. Margaret is what some would call the spoiled princess who runs on holiday and rarely ever take responsibility. But something in Margaret changes and then her sister requests assistance with the royal duties. Life happens and duty calls but will life be too much and send her back to her spoiled princess ways? This is a very well written book and I really enjoyed the pleasant read. I am going back to read the previous books in the series and I hope that there is another one to update up on what happens next.
What a very different type of scenario.. Real life in a romance book. I really enjoyed reading this book and know that you also shall. I found a couple of things that were a factor in marking 4 stars instead of 5. It seemed a little too no back bone for a royal person to take so long to decide to stand or run. And the second would be maybe it was a little much to believe that such a rich and well known man could not afford the best to find and locate immediately his problem, as well as finding a way to resolve the issue so the press had the truth and not a lie.
Other than this... I enjoyed reading a book that is not in a normal genre for me. I liked the story itself that it is more realistic then most. The writing is creative and will hold your attention.
I was given this book in return for an honest review. Swedenmom
The exploits of the royals has held the attention of the world for years. The handsome and mysterious prince. The poised and beautiful princess with her fabulous wardrobe and charmed life. From an early age every little girl has heard the fairy tales, seen the photos and fallen in love with the lifestyle. S.A. Gordon through her Young Royals series gives us a glimpse into the lives of a fictional royal family as they come of age. She does it in a way that is enlightening, entertaining and romantic. The stuff of every girls fantasy. The one thing this author makes abundantly clear is that no matter who or what title or station in life a person has there are still responsibilities to be carried out.
I struggled to finish this one in the series. I loved the others, but this one didn't have the same relationships or fun to it. Margaret just seemed like such a child and John was far too old for her in my opinion. The combination made for just a weird get together that I didn't enjoy. I still think the best in the series was the first, The Prince. They seemed to slowly go down hill from there.

I received this book from NetGallery in exchange for an honest review. I did enjoy this book but I would read the other two books first for background because I have just read this one and it would have help me with the understanding of some of the characters. But other then that I would recommend it to people.
