review 1: In Storming the Castle you meet a secondary character whose story was told in Kiss at Midnight. I have always loved fairy tales and am enjoying Eloisa James' versions of old favorites. Wick was the "butler" whose was born on the wrong side of the blanket. As brother to the prince he sacrificed so much of himself to serve the household. Wick - educated, handsome, but a bastard can't marry a lady but deserves one. Phillipa has been expected to marry Rodney a future baronet and decides to have sex with him before. She is repulsed by his body and his lack of skill and has few options. When she hears the new baby at the castle is wasting away she goes to help with colic. A cute romance begins. There were a few elements of the story line that I don't know were fully dev... moreeloped. Perhaps I missed them, falling asleep with my kindle. But Phillipa's uncle - a doctor influenced her love of medicine and healing yet we never meet this character. But it is a short novella and that is often the problem with this genre. If you ever wanted a prince on a white horse then Storming the Castle is the book for you. The prequel is included. I didn't reread it but recommend reading that one first.
review 2: Ok, it's a novella so it is very short without too much story build up. But i guess that's what Novella is for. Storming the castle is a story about Wick (Gabriel's half brother / majordormo)and Miss. Phillipa Damson. It is a story about the stable boy and the princess, or more correctly about a bastard and a lady. A sweet story, doesn't take an hour to finish it. So worth to read to pass the time. less
