Dear Readers,
Once Upon a Prince by Rachel Hauck is exactly what it sounds like, a modern day fairy tale. What little girl at one time or another did not dream of meeting Prince Charming just like in Cinderella. He would see her true beauty and rescue her from the drudgery that was her everyday life and fall in love to live happily ever after. (Let’s all collectively sigh now.J)
Rachel believes in that can happen. She is a romantic at heart and it shows up in her books and writing. She also knows that reality comes in and sometime true love doesn’t win. Duty does call and life just doesn’t go the way we want, but what fun is that in a book.
Susanna was expecting a proposal from her longtime boyfriend. Instead he broke up with her and broke her heart in the process. She is struggling to regain her life and move on. Prince Nathaniel never expected to find love while standing under a tree labeled Lover’s Oak, but that is what happens when he meets Susanne. The problem is that they are both from very different worlds; they can never be together because duty calls.
I can already see the Disney people writing a lovely happy movie for this book, but until then, pull up your nearest royal chair, your tiara, maybe a spot of tea and enjoy a fairy tale written for the little girl alive and well in all of us.
Happy Reading
