Product Description |
|
Lady Taylor Stapleton's world was crumbling. She had been betrayed and publicly humiliated by her fiance. Now, with the help of her beloved grandmother, Lady Ester, Taylor is about to pull off the shocker of the season. Taylor agrees to marry handsome American Lucas Ross, a rugged, independent American, and together they plan to leave England behind forever. Once they get to America, they will go their separate ways...Taylor to Boston, Lucas to his Montana ranch...or so they believe. They have been thrown together by mutual need. Lucas and Taylor could not have come for more different worlds: his, the wide-open skies of Montana territory, and hers, the restrictive, proper London drawing rooms. They have only one thing in common. They will do anything to protect the innocents who depend on them. |

I've always liked this book... |
I've always liked this book. I have probably read it at least a half dozen times; however, it had been several years since the last time that I have read it. I have always like Garwood as an author. She is a very engaging story teller (although there were a few inconsistencies that bothered me - a daughter of a baronet is not called a lady [I believe] and a Native person with a full-blood grandparent is a quarterblood not a halfblood).
The story line appeals to me as I enjoy the mixing of English nobility with the wild, west of America. I believe that Lucas is a great character and I found myself enjoying the interactions between him and the children. There were times, though, which I found Taylor to be quite annoying and I regret that Madame wasn't in the book more! As another poster stated, I had expected a grand show-down with the evil uncle but the book ended with a whimper.

A book to lose yourself in! |
|
Everything you could want in a romance novel - two very likable leading characters with plenty of steamy chemistry between them, a couple of interesting sidekicks, a villain or two, and a great story with plenty of action. A keeper! |

Left me wanting more! |
A WONDERFUL book that left me wanting more. In fact, when I got to the end of the book, I could have read a few more pages and was rather sad that the book had ended. This one DEFINATELY needs a sequel! For example...I'd like to find out more about Hunter and Victoria. I won't go into details but I'd like to read what happens to them. And Lucas' half-brothers have yet to meet Taylor and their "kids". And there is John Caulder...does he ever meet up with Lucas again? He still has issues with Lucas that have yet to be resolved.
The story didn't leave me hanging, since Taylor got her dream and so did Lucas, it just left me wanting more. I fell in love with the town of Redemption and a few of the characters, like Rolly and Frank. I'd like to read more about them as well. Especially Rolly.
In my opinion, PRINCE CHARMING is one of her best books. |

So Good I Wore Out My First Copy! |
|
I loved it from the start, and it remains one of my favorite JG stories. I re-read it so many times that I did in fact have to buy a second copy to replace my dog-eared first copy. I love the move from England to America - it's like an epic and neatly connects Garwood's Regency stores from her Western ones. The heroine, Taylor, is pretty and feminine, yet strong and feisty (I love the scene in the gun shop)! The hero definitely lives up to the title of the story, and the love story is sweet and heartwarming. Classic Garwood - so good! |

Pretty good |
|
Overall this book was good, not great, but good. I love Julie Garwood and have read almost all of her books and I did like that she set a book in America. I would recommend it but don't judge it by the beginning even if it does seem a little confusing, she does explain things later. |
