Reviews

“With creativity and a sense of humor, this first novel is a delightful romp. The provision of magic makes all things possible, and the sense of place is vividly realized. Fans of The Princess Diaries (2000) and Ella Enchanted (1997) will be pulled in by Desi and her refusal to accept the status quo.” ~Booklist Review

“A fast-paced and humorous read with a dash of romance…. sure to leave readers longing for the next installment.” ~School Library Journal

“Princess for Hire is a riot of a read” ~Kid’s Compass

“I totally heart this book! Funny, witty, and magical, Princess for Hire is a must-read.” ~Lisa Schroeder, author of I Heart You, You Haunt Me and It’s Raining Cupcakes

Princess for Hire is a fabulous debut novel filled with romance, princesses and magic. The ideal book for fans of fantasy, chick lit and anyone who’s ever dreamed of being a princess. 5 Stars!”  ~Jessica at chicklitteens.com

“It’s easy to get pulled into the storyline. I barely put the book down while reading the last 150 pages. Desi was an interesting character and I loved her voice and personality… Overall, a really fun and cute debut.”   ~James at Book Chic Club
