Synopsis

Alaska is a rough, beautiful country ruled by a famously eccentric royal family, including oldest daughter, Princess Alexandria, whose acid wit and bad case of insomnia have turned her into a tabloid darling, a palace problem, and overall . . .

Marine biologist Dr. Shel ("Never Sheldon") Rivers has a problem. Some princess expects him to wait on her, hand and dimpled foot. His boss is taken with the royal redhead, and nobody realizes that he just wants to be left alone in his lab.

Now here's Miss Royalpants, insisting that he escort her around the marine institute, explain what he's doing, kiss her until her toes curl . . . no, wait, that was his idea. She's not even apologetic about being born into a royal family! Says it's his problem to overcome, not hers. Which leaves him with one option: to kiss her again. And again.

So she's nothing like he expected. In fact, Dr. Rivers can see that this fantastic, exasperating woman has problems no princess should ever have to deal with. And he has an idea to help her get some much-needed sleep. Of course, it involves getting very, very tired beforehand, but if she's up to it, then so is he . . .

Contains mature themes.

This was really rather dull for a MaryJanice Davidson book. The only reason its not getting a 1 rating from me is because I enjoy Davidson's writing style. Princess Alex has turned into a walking stressed zombie due to her insomnia. The family psychiatrist has decided that a break from her normal sur......more

Goodreads review by Jennifer on November 08, 2012

I actually read this series out of order (read book one, then book three, then book two), but this was still a fun, fast read that only took me about two hours to finish. This installmant of the royal Baranov family from the country of Alaska centers around Princess Alexandria Baranov, the sister who......more

Hmm...I'm trying to think of an apt desciption for this book. Oh, got it! Do you remember that Friends episode about the guys' friend Gandolf coming to visit? They were so stoked, envisioning the best night of their lives. And then he didn't show. Yeah...that's what reading this book was like after r......more
