review 1: A cute historical romance. The Accidental Prince was a sweet romance, with a Cinderella twist.I liked how this book was kind of a reverse Cinderella. Instead of rags to riches, it was riches to rags, then back to riches. And complete with a runaway princess. Throw in a handsome prince, and you have yourself the beginnings of a lovely book.Serena was a remarkably strong heroine. She had been through hell and she still found the will to fight. Her predicament in the beginning of the book-desperate to run away-made her a sympathetic character right away. And, throughout the rest of the book, she only grew on me more. She was strong, clever, determined, and more resourceful than you'd give a pampered princess credit for. In other words, she was awesome.Karl was a little harder... more to figure out. He thinks himself a ruthless man and did everything he could to live up to that at first. But, later, he showed his kinder side. In the end, it was clear that Karl was a sweet man, who would do anything to protect what he loved. Not only that, but he was also clever, determined, and unafraid of facing daunting. By the end of the book, I adored him.The romance between Serena and Karl was so sweet. There wasn't much spice going around, just a small sprinkle. I felt that their relationship was more about healing each other. It was very sweet.The plot was well-paced. There were some points where it slowed down and I began to skim, but that wasn't too much of a problem. And, for some reason, I wasn't able to connect with the characters completely. But, it didn't inhibit my enjoyment of the book, so it didn't bother me too much. There were a few surprises, a couple of betrayals, and-of course-a happy ending.The Accidental Prince was a lovely historical romance. Lovers of the genre, you'll want to give this book a try.*Thanks to Netgalley and Harlequin for a copy!
review 2: After reading Michelle Willingham's first two books in her Accidental Series I couldn't wait to read THE ACCIDENTAL PRINCE. Ms. Willingham didn't disappoint. Her characters though flawed were engaging and with every turn of the page they kept you enthralled, appalled, and entertained. This book is a must have for anyone who loves Romance novels. I truly enjoyed reading Karl and Serena's story. less
