 Her father is The King of England. She is The Controversial Princess. Regarded as down to earth by the press and rebellious by The King, Princess Adeline refuses to bow to the royal expectations her title carries. She knows better than anyone that the united front of the royal family is nothing but smoke and mirrors – lies and secrets masked by power and privilege. She wants no part of it, and she will never surrender to The King’s demand to marry a man she does not love. But despite Adeline’s determination to retain her free will, she remains deeply unfulfilled, feeling caged and suffocated. That is until she meets Josh Jameson. Drawn in by his confidence, Adeline is soon captivated by the scandalously sexy American actor. His ability to penetrate her defences overwhelms her – his touch is pure fire, and his allure overpowering. Nothing has ever made her feel so alive in a world where she’s otherwise slowly drowning. However, while Josh may be Hollywood royalty, he’s not actual royalty, and Adeline knows The King and his advisors will do everything in their power to keep them apart. But Josh Jameson becomes the princess’s ultimate vice. And although she bows to no one, she bows to him. 4 Star Review by Ashley Confession time, I found the first bit of The Controversial Princess a bit slow. To be fair, there were a lot of characters and how they were all connected to learn but after the first quarter things really started to pick up. Holy wow- the first meeting between Adeline and Josh was electric. I could feel the sparks flying off the page. There was no denying their chemistry. Their battle for control made for some interesting encounters to say the least. I loved Adeline's sass and spunk. How she loved so fiercely but didn't want to have anything forced on her. However, when it was Josh making the demands, all bets were off. Oh that Josh. Cocky, American boy. I liked how he saw Adeline. How he gave her not what she wanted but what she needed. He broke her fortress down piece by piece and together they landed in the clouds. That is until expectations and commitments and the demands of their lives tried to get in the way. In true Jodi Ellen Malpas fashion, this book was sexy and funny and a bit mysterious with a sprinkling of danger and intrigue. My heart was absolutely racing at the end. There was so much that had to happen and not enough time for it to all play out. Mini spoiler alert, this is part one of a duet so it ends on a big old cliffhanger. That ending with bombshell after bombshell had my head just spinning. I can not wait to see how this new twist changes everything for Josh and Adeline.
