Princess Charming (Legendary Lovers, #1)
by Nicole Jordan (Goodreads Author)

I won my copy of Princess Charming by Nicole Jordan through GoodReads FirstReads. The premise of the story was about the Wilde family, five orphaned cousins and their uncle. One of the cousins and her uncle theorize that the Wilde's one true love stories mimic those of fairy tales, myths and even Shakespeare. The first story, Princess Charming, supposedly follows Perrault's Cinderella, however it's definitely not the Disney version. Maura Collyer, aka Cinderella, has a race horse breeding farm and a prized stallion named Bold Emperor who is sold to a detestable man named Lord Deering by Maura's stepmother and Maura devises a plan to reclaim him with the help of Ashton Wilde. Although the storyline was quite interesting the author often ventured into less than tasteful lusty scenes that were far too raunchy for me. I like a tender love story not gross porn, which is exactly what her explicit scenes of disgusting sexual acts were. I knew going in that Princess Charming was a huge leap from my normal reading material but had hoped it was going to be a bit more tasteful and less gratuitous, but it wasn't so sorry to say I didn't enjoy reading it.
