If You Were Mine

Rate this book
Daisy

I was just a servant to the royal family, a nobody in the grand scheme of things. But my heart belonged to Prince Lennon, the somewhat “black sheep” of the family. I didn’t care what others said or how his reputation for being less than caring about tradition followed him.


I saw the same emptiness in him as I had in myself. I wanted to ease him, let him know we were meant to be together.


But I would never be seen as anything more than the help.
Even so, one day, I’d have the nerve to admit how I felt, even if it ended up blowing up in my face.


Prince Lennon

She thought I didn’t notice her, that she was just a royal servant.


She was wrong.
I didn’t care if it was frowned upon if royalty mixed with a commoner. I didn’t care what the tabloids or my family might say. I wanted Daisy more than I ever wanted anything or anyone before.


Just being in her presence made the loneliness in me lessen, made me want her more than the jewels and riches that surrounded me. Being with Daisy would complete me, and I’d have her.


I just needed to make her see we belonged together.

*Re-edited, and was originally included in the Royally Mine anthology.*

A sweet Royal short story. It's easy and fun to read.

The story is about Lennon and Daisy.

He's the Prince of Hemingway Court and second in line for the throne. The tabloids call him the black sheep of the Royal Family but he doesn't care what everyone thinks or say. He doesn't even want anything to do with Royal traditions or the Crown.

She's a servant to the Royal Family for years. She wants Prince Lennon all these years but she thinks a commoner could never be with a prince.

He think he doesn't deserve to be happy but he's tired of waiting and he wouldn't hold himself back from her any longer. Nothing could stop him from being with her.

It has a nice epilogue.

Loved this quick read. Lennon and Daisy were such a great couple. They each had feelings for each other but because of their status, they were afraid to tell the other that is until one night when he couldn’t take it anymore. Loved the chemistry and the attraction that was between them. So good. Wonder where I can find my own Lennon?

A rerelase from a old anthology book!! And it also got a cover lift. Its pretty short and little steamy. Can be a quick lunch read.

A maid and a prince fall in love. Even if its frown upon, these two cant stop what the heart wants. Daisy thinks Lennon the blacksheep prince doesn't even notice her but little does she know he does, and he is done with the rules of the royal. When he overhears his girl is going to a bar. Not wanting to lose her or have something bad happen he is breaking all the rules.

And their chemistry is over the top cute, now he's telling his parents this is the one.


No ow/om drama, No cheating, sexy times, virgin gal and idk his history?

Recommend- maybe

This short story was originally in the Royally Mine anthology but has since been released on it's own. Lennon is the Prince of Hemingway Court and second in line for the throne after his older brother, Ashton. The tabloids are constantly calling him the black sheep of the family and accusing him of not taking royalty seriously. He loves his family but he's lonely and feels like he's missing something in his life. Daisy is 22 years old, she's worked for the royal family for a few years cleaning the palace. She's in love with Lennon but she knows he would never love her so she keeps it to herself. Lennon watches Daisy and has strong feelings for her but he's hesitant to approach her. But when he overhears another servant making plans with Daisy to hang out together at a local bar he decides it's time to make a move. When he gets to the bar and sees a stranger man-handling her he immediately intervenes.

This is one of the sweetest sexy story and I so enjoyed reading it.
Lennon is the second son in line for the title of King but he didn't want it.
Daisy works as a house servant to the Royal Family. She has loved and wanted Lennon and dreams of him loving and wanting her.
Lennon has decided to follow Daisy to the pub and to tell her that he wants her to be his.

This is a story of love between a commoner and Royalty.

This story is short and one you don't want to miss reading.

If You Were Mine is a sweet and fun Royal novella with a misunderstood Prince and the shy virgin "commoner" that he falls in love with. 

Lennon is second in line for the heir and while he does respect the line, he's seen as a bit of a rebel. With that in mind, Daisy seems to understand him. She sees the truth lurking behind those eyes of his and she's been drawn to him unlike with anyone else. She's loved him from afar, knowing that their status keeps them apart. And the fact that she thinks he hasn't noticed her. 

Daisy caught Lennon's attention from day one and all he's wanted to do was to claim her. Yet he has been caught up in his own emotions and hasn't acted on it. All it takes is the idea of her not being his to make him snap and own up to his true feelings. 

These two couldn't be more perfect for each other. He seems to have the right about of alpha but she provides him the support that he desperately needs. 

I will admit that for some reason, I didn't feel the passion between these two but I 100% think that it's a me and in the moment situation. It's set up to be dirty and fun. 

If you are looking for a quick and sweet read with some insta-love and a dirty mouth, then this is the one for you!

This is a sexy, sweet short novella that was originally in the Royally Mine Anthology. This is Jenika Snow’s lovely contribution and the story is “If You Were Mine”.
Lennon is the 2nd son in line for the title of King but he couldn’t care less; he doesn’t want to be King. There is something more he desires… Daisy is a house servant to the Royal family and is in love with Lennon but doesn’t think he notices a thing about her. She sees what others do not in Lennon while Lennon sees everything about her. They are a true match and Lennon is one possessive alpha male when it comes to his Daisy. I loved the punch this story packed, even with how short this story is. Would love to know more about Lennon’s brother … overall, fantastic erotic read.


My Rating: 4.7 stars *****

5 Stars!


Jenika Snow never disappoints and I swear I'd follow this woman to the ends of the earth just for her books and heroes. Sexy. Sweet. Over the top. Insta-everything. You better believe it's going to be short, sweet, safe, easy, and all kinds of delicious naughtiness fun.

If You Were Mine is her latest standalone novel and it did not disappoint. Lennon and Daisy were magnificently written and completely addicting. I devoured their story in over sitting and afterwards, went back for seconds.

You already know what to do... run run run!

I highly recommend this book

This book was previously included in the royally mine anthology which I have not read. This story is short, fast paced and sweet. I read this book in one sitting and wasn’t once bored. I really liked Lennon and Daisy. I liked that they both had secret feelings for one another. I liked them as a couple and the chemistry between them was clear to see. I also loved that Lennon didn’t let his royal status stop him dating a commoner.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is a nice read.

3.5 ⭐️

TW/CW:
Unbalanced power dynamics, sexual harassment, physical altercation.

This was good actually. It did have some misspellings and grammar errors but it was still readable and served its purpose.

As a lover of contemporary romance books nothing turns my crank more than a sweet and sexy instaLove read. This book is that with an added fairytale bonus. Is there anything better than Prince Charming falling for the love of his life and sweeping her off her feet? The answer - no there is not.
Prince Lennon is second in line to the throne, he’s the black sheep of the family although there is nothing black about him - he’s quiet, pensive and loyal to a fault. His life is missing one thing, her.
Daisy is a commoner, she’s young, innocent and alone. Working at the palace has made her fall truly, madly, deeply for the Prince. Unable to resist one another they succumb to their feelings and desires.
Their happily ever after is deliciously sweet, sexy and well deserved. TBA and enjoy. (I read an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.)

Daisy and Lennon are the perfect swoon worthy couple!! I loved their story so much and I wish there were more. Both are quiet and reserved, keeping to their place in life, both hiding the feelings they have for each other. Once it becomes too much and they finally tell each other how they feel, they get their fairytale happily ever after. Jenika Snow really knows how to write those happy endings!!

Royally loved
This book is short, intense and a super fast read. The characters are endearing and very realistic in both their emotions and reactions to their situation. I enjoyed the way that they came together so quickly and yet it had been brewing for years. And I love that they truly received the support they needed. This author always manages to write these stories that draw me in and I can’t wait to read the next one.

This was a really cute short insta-love/longing book. Lennon and Daisy are from different classes and highly frowned upon the two classes mixing. These two have great chemistry and they see each other as they both have been longing to be seen. I recommend this cute book.

Daisy and Lennon are so much alike. Both of them feel a little lost in their worlds. Only difference is, he's the prince and she's the help. That doesnt matter to either one of them as they finally let each other know about thier feelings for one another. Loved reading thier story.

Daisy has a crush, a really big crush, on Prince Lennon. And since she's a commoner and working in the royal palace, she doesn't believe anything could ever happen between them.

Lennon isn't exactly the man he's portrayed in the media. The reason he's seems standoffish is because he has a secret. There's a girl that has captured his heart but he doesn't know how to tell her and claim her for himself.

Lennon learns of Daisy's plans and decides he must follow and look out for her, but when a situation arises, he knows he can't sit back and do nothing.

When the dust settles, Lennon and Daisy confess their long held secrets. But can they stay together when Lennon parents find out? Or will Lennon give up everything for the woman he loves?

If You Were Mine is a sexy, saucy, swooning read from start to finish. It's a quick read that will get your panties melting and ovaries exploding.

I love Lennon and Daisy and how devoted to each other they are even when things looked like they wouldn't be able to be together. The fact that Lennon was willing to walk away from everything he's ever known for Daisy shows how much he loves Daisy.

This really is a delicious read that I couldn't put down. And after it was finished, I wanted more.

So if you looking for something hot, dirty, and everything naughty after a long day?

Then I would highly recommend you pick up If You Were Mine and let Prince Lennon show you how fun being the black sheep can be.

If You Were Mine by Jenika Snow is a quick romance novella about two characters who were meant for each other but have to overcome some social status issues. Daisy works for the royal family and has been pining for Prince Lennon. Lennon has been watching Daisy and she somehow makes him less lonely, more himself. There is only so long that these two can remain separate. When Lennon learns Daisy is going to go out to a bar with a friend, he can't stand the idea of other guys slobbering over her and he knows he has to act.

If You Were Mine was a cute story. I liked how both characters were so drawn to each other. This was an instalove story which had a delay because Lennon is a Prince. The good thing is that once they are together there is no doubt that its right. Both Daisy and Lennon cared for each other and hoped that it just might be possible the other felt the same way.

I recommend If You Were Mine by Jenika Snow as a fun quick love story about a Prince and his soulmate.

The couple: Lennon and Daisy

Romance trope: royalty
Length: 64 pages

Plot: Daisy was a maid in the royal household, and Lennon was a prince of the realm. She saw him in a different way than the rest of the world. She saw the man behind the crown, and she didn't realize that he saw her too. One night he makes a move to protect her and they finally reveal some long-held feelings.

Commentary: I really like the royalty/commoner trope. It's so much more workable in fiction than in real life. I know it's happened a few times, but successfully? I don't know how much. I guess the same could be said for regular pairings as well). If you're looking for a longer story with the same sort of pairing, Peaches & the Duke is the start of a trilogy where a prince/rock star (just go with it) falls in love with a commoner. They have a lot more problems than Lennon and Daisy, but it's the same trope.
But Lennon and Daisy were sweet love goals, and I liked this one a lot.

Daisy is a royal servant with a huge crush on Prince Lennon. She tries to keep her distance, hoping her feelings are not discovered by anyone.

Prince Lennon is the Prince of Hemmingway Court and the black sheep of the Royal family. He has had feelings for Daisy for a long time and is tired of letting what he really wants go.

When Prince Lennon has an opportunity will he finally take it to make Daisy his?

This was a quick fairy tale romance where the love you have always been waiting for discovers you feel the same as they do.

I really liked Daisy in that it was obvious how dedicated she was to her job and really did not go out much but agreed to and then Prince Lennon is there when she least expects it and comes in to save the day.

The two were hot together and Daisy was willing to give everything to Prince Lennon.

I loved Prince Lennon's opinions to his parents when they voiced how they felt about Daisy and Lennon together. After that I was so happy with how his parents replied.

Quick read but fun!

If You Were Mine was originally in the Royally Mine anthology but has since been released on its own. Snow once again captivates us with her beautifully written characters and an insta-love story that we can all find ourselves wishing to be a part of. This is not the usual hot and steamy alpha male that I am used to coming from Snow, but this sweet and dominating change is definitely something I can get used to.

Lennon is the Prince of Hemingway Court and second in line to the throne. Daisy is a servant that has worked for the royal family for a few years and has been in love with Lennon for as long as she can remember. What she does not know is that Lennon is desperately in love with her as well. When Lennon overhears another servant making plans with Daisy to hang out together at a local bar he decides it's time to make a move. What he sees when he gets there sets these two on a colliding path toward their happily ever after.
