Some Enchanted Evening: The Lost Princesses #1

By Christina Dodd

Book Overview

Once upon a time . . . in a kingdom high in the Pyrenees, three young princesses were forced to flee the chaos in their land--vanishing without a trace and lost to their people . . . until the day a courageous prince can bring the princesses home. One of Scotland's most dangerous men, Robert MacKenzie is dazzled by the enchanting beauty who rides into the town he is sworn to defend. Though he is wary of the exquisite stranger, Clarice stirs emotions within him that Robert buried deeply years before. And now he must have her at any cost, vowing to gain her trust through the powers of his sensuous seduction. Torn between her need to protect her secrets and her aching desire for the dark, tormented earl of Hepburn, Clarice is pulled into Robert's glamorous world . . . and into his perilous plan for justice and revenge. And with the winds of treachery swirling around them, a runaway princess must draw Robert's heart from the shadows and make him believe in happily-ever-after.

I wish I was a princess in one of Christina Dodd's books

I've read RUNAWAY PRINCESS and SOMEDAY MY PRINCE, and her princesses always face incredible problems resourcefully and bravely (sometimes not so bravely inside) and they get the best guys in romance. It's Christina Dodd's heroes who really work, this strong alpha guys who start out being overbearing and by the end of the book the heroine has brought him to his knees. That's why I want to be a princess in Christna Dodd's books. I want one of those guys.

Some Enchanted Book

Lord Robert blackmails Princess Clarice to help him get vengence against a dishonest English officer in Scotland after she is nearly run out of town for scamming an English magistrate. I really loved the premise for this series and the fun plot of this first book and I can hardly wait for the rest of the little princesses stories. Ms Dodd has such a wry, fun and sexy voice and tells a fast paced story better than any romance author out there.

Splendid Read!

Lately, I've had difficulty reading past the first chapters of the books I bring home from the store or library -- I've become "disenchanted" with the offerings. In contrast, this newest book by Dodd held my attention, is fast-paced, and of course has a fairy-tale ending. I especially liked the hero and heroine. Clarice is strong, but not cold; Robert is strong, cold, but then thaws -- nicely. I disagree with the review which states that Robert seems to force Clarice into love-making. She clearly wants and enjoys each of their sensual encounters, and is even the aggressor at times. I think the whole story is wonderfully written, flows beautifully, and definitely has the reader (me) waiting for Amy's story, which will hopefully arrive soon!
