Just completed #6 (Little prince) - Little Lady, Big Apple by Hester Browne. I was incredibly disappointed in this book! When I read the first book several years ago, I enjoyed the main character. In this book, I found her to be provincial and rather submissive. Not worth reading and I won't be finishing the series. 2 stars8/25
