The Bastard Prince (It’s Raining Royals) by Alix Nichols – Review by Dahnielle Hibbert
The Bastard Prince by Alix Nichols
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This novella is a continuing tale in the Raining Royals Series. The Bastard Prince being book two follows Arnaud, a plastic surgeon who doesn’t know he is a prince. When he learns he is he almost doubts it. Ever the playboy he does have a liaison outside the main characters and it does make his character a little less lovable.
Sasha is an instantaneous love for me. Challenged with a disability that she doesn’t let get in her way, she works hard for what she has and she goes at life with spunk and curiosity. Being a reporter that curiosity is probably a necessity but the author makes it feel more like a natural trait than a must have due to vocation.
This installment in the Raining Royals is more charming and tender than the first book which gave us a steamy love affair with Max and Lucie. This ends as the first did with a HEA and a continuing arc for the next tale in the series. I do look forward to reading it.
So why did I give this four starts instead of five if I liked it so much? As a nurse I see people with the condition Sasha has and I feel like the author could have put a bit more research into it to make it more believable. However if you are not in the medical field or have never dealt with a kidney condition you probably wouldn’t notice this. Now on to book three!!
