"Prince's Passion" is the story of Jinx and Nik.

WOW. I should have read the 1 star review on this before reading this crap.

Remember Stazy's charming brother Nik in the last series? The Oscar winning film director?

This is where he shows his true colors.

This man is egotistic, obsessive, and obstinate. He stalks the heroine, harasses her, almost seduces both OW and h to gain for his benefit, disrespects her wishes and violates her privacy, threatens her and denies refusal of consent- ALL because he wants to make a movie based on a book, whos rights are owned by the "author", our h.

And how did that self made, educated, caring h fall for such a giant asshole?!

This was not a love story. This was not romantic. This was not sexy.

This was stalking and harassment. I abhor this being called a romance.

I skimmed it after 50% mark. One of the worst things I've ever read.

1/5

I'm a huge Carole Mortimer fan and I was delighted to find the Prince Brothers series available for download on the Mills and Boon website. This is BB (Big Brother) Nik's story. Nik's a former film star now big wig movie director and he's determined to have the movie rights for a bestselling novel that has taken the world by storm. In his near obsession to achieve his goal, he uncovers that the reclusive author is Juliet aka Jinx, a woman who not only appeals to his libido but his match when it comes to stubbornness. He's in a quandary when it comes to the beautiful redhead, "because the last thing he felt was comfortable in Jinx's company; often angry, often frustrated, his senses heightened and attuned to her every movement, but never, ever comfortable!" This is a delicious read and I gobbled up every morsel in one sitting!

Wow, it was really hard to like the book. Such a disgusting hero. Practically sleeps with another woman to get info on the heroine, blames the woman for succumbing to him, stalks her day after day, follows her everywhere she goes just to get her address, bribes people to keep tabs on her, harasses her verbally and physically, reveals her biggest secret to the press, blames her for the ensuing paparazzi, and accuses her of being a bad daughter.
Even will romance writers like CM learn that manipulative and controlling men are bullies?
And still she falls in love with him.

Este livro foi-me oferecido por uma amiga de um blog, bem como a sua coleção (mais dois livros). Já li dois livros da Harlequin e confesso que gosto destas histórias e esta também não desagradou.
Tudo começa por um interessa profissional, mas os sentimentos dão a volta à cabeça e ao coração. Quando temos um homem rabo saias (não há mesmo outro nome) que tem fama e proveito, que faz de tudo para conseguir aquilo que quer, mas quando surge alguém mais teimosa que ele tudo muda. Tem de lutar por aquilo que quer, sem estratagemas ou segundas intenções, há envolvimento puro e físico, mas algo passa mais do que a atração sexual. Serão estas duas pessoas capazes de se entregarem a algo que desconhecem? Será que ele mostrará interessado por ela e não pela sua ascensão profissional a todo o custo?
Um livro que se lê muito rápido, de fácil leitura e que envolve o leitor de uma forma natural. É sim, um livro típico, mas não deixei de gostar. Agora vou ler os 2 livros que faltam e ver como termina a história dos irmãos ricos e poderosos :)
