Was it this year that you were looking at the book? Was the book new or old? Were you looking at a store? What section of it?
Were you looking online and on what site (some will remember books you have looked at)
I did some cover search take a look at the following pictures:

You can also check lists like this if it is a really pretty cover it might be there.
If you remember a word from the cover try this website: http://bigbooksearch.com/
Oops, I'm sorry!! I thought I had specified some things that apparently I didn't...It was at Borders that I was looking, in the fantasy section. I'm not sure how old or new the book was, since it was a brand new copy and I didn't look at the publication date (I could kick myself for that now!!).
I tried the links you listed, Ellie, but none of them were it unfortunately :(
One thing, about the link for if it's a pretty cover...I am about 95% positive that it was not a real person on the cover, but a drawing of a person, like the other links you put.
Thank you so much for trying to help me!!
Not sure why I decided to look for a sci-fi book. Would the book still be in the store? Did you check their website?

Ah, just realized..you're giving me UK links, so I'm assuming you're from the UK. Borders closed down shortly after I was there and saw the book. I was there for their closing of store clearance sale.Also, as far as the color...it was a solid pink, not different shades, ombre, etc.
If I remember correctly, it wasn't hot pink, and it wasn't pale pink. I feel like it was a deep pink...
Again, I really appreciate your help!! :)
You are welcome. Yes I thought you might be outside UK as I'm not familiar with the store name and covers could be different in different countries.

:( Still no luck.Yeah, there is the issue of different covers from country to country. However, I own Luxe, and the cover you sent me of it is the cover that I own. Unless you just looked at the U.S. copy of it...
I'm not sure what any of the covers look like other than the hardcover that I saw, unfortunately.
Well, there is the Frog Princess. The book is pink, but it has a from with a crown on the cover.The Frog Princess
No, I looked at all the possible covers for The Frog Princess, and none of them were it. But thank you!

Was the dress pink as well or only the cover?

Too purplish? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Nope to all of them :(Yes to the "too purplish."
I honestly can't remember the color of the dress...
I'm sorry I'm not giving you much to work with.
I'm busy scouring through lists of books as well, but not finding anything :(

Is the shop you saw it in a chain of shops. If so you can call another one for them to check what they have on the shelves - if too far to travel.
Princess in Pink ?If not, im sorry! I think there needs to be just a little more info. Bummer, I know that feeling, believe me, its happened to me before, mostly with music, trying to find a song I once heard but going by limited details.

Natalie, you may also try posting this in What's the name of that book??? group.
Wish I could help but nothing is ringing a bell to me. I didn't read fantasy back then unfortunately. I'm still new to it now!
Justice, yes, I know it's an extremely long shot due to the lack of information. Unfortunately. :( I WILL know it when I see it...it's just a matter of getting to the point of seeing it :( Thank you for your help, though!! Unfortunately none of them were it. And I know it's not any of the Princess Diaries, because I do collect that series.Erin, I didn't know there was a group called that!!! I'll have to check it out, thanks!
Oh, sorry Ellie. I guess when I said it closed down, I didn't specify that the entire chain went bankrupt. Thank you for the idea though!

Back when Borders was closing (making the time frame of the publication of this book 2011 or earlier), I ALMOST bought this book, but ended up getting a different one instead. Since then, I have been looking for it.
I can't remember the title or author.
It was a hardcover, decent length, but I'm not sure HOW long it was.
Pink cover. It had a princess on it, I'm pretty sure it's on the left side, but please don't quote me on that!
I'm pretty sure, besides the princess, the book dealt with some type of amphibian or reptile. I'm leaning towards a frog, but I hesitate to search for that, because the frog prince will keep popping up, and that's not what it was.
Again, I know that this is a long shot, but if ANYONE has any ideas...I've been searching for this online like crazy!! I'd appreciate any help!!
Thanks!!
