I *LOVE* free stuff! I also love trashy romance novels. This happened to be the best of both worlds. By clicking randomly upon the internet, I somehow have found myself 'following' a lot of authors on Facebook. Sophie Jordan happened to post at the beginning of the month that her novel, "Wicked in Your Arms", was free for one day only. I hopped right on that bandwagon!
From Amazon:One of the most notoriously eligible bachelors in Europe is finally ready to marry . . .
For fiercely independent Grier Hadley, being the illegitimate daughter of one of London's most unsavory characters has only one advantage: an enormous, ill-gotten dowry.
Prince Sevastian Maksimi knows where his duty lies: he must find a well-bred young lady—one with a considerable fortune to her name—wed her promptly, and get to the business of producing an heir.
The last thing Grier needs is some unattainable prince curling her toes with his smoldering glances and wicked suggestions. As far as Sev is concerned, she lacks the breeding to become a princess. And yet one kiss from this arresting female is all it takes for him to realize that anyone else in his arms would be unthinkable . . .
This was a cute little story. I really felt like the book could have been longer in order to flesh out the characters a bit more. Apart from the completely random names, Grier and Sev, the book is fast-paced and fun. It fits very nicely into the romance novel outline ... meeting, conflict, sex, drama (misunderstanding, kidnapping, or pregnancy), happy ending. I give "Wicked in Your Arms" a B-.
