Forced to sail to the sun-drenched kingdom of Ardalone to fulfill a marriage alliance, Prince Thomas of Pretania must choose one of the Ardalonian princesses to be his wife. But every choice comes with consequences. Spurned by Thomas' older brother, Princess Dulciana stands to inherit the throne as she is eldest, but only if she marries an Ardalonian noble. Second-in-line Prince Frederico will do anything to ensure that doesn't happen. But beyond the palace gates, a rebellion is stirring...and if there's one thing Prince Thomas excels at, it's stirring up trouble.
Book Information Post
With the Queens dissaproval aimed squarely
in her direction will she weather the
storm and win the prince?
This is the second book in a four book season
series and it tells the story of Libby's time
at court as a Debutante for the winter Season.
But just because shes there as a debutante now
rather than a attendant to a debutante as she was
in the first book doesnt mean she has an easier
time of it, infact if anythiing its even harder because
the competiton for the crown is even
tougher than it was last time as both the
Princes are taking part.
Again as with the first book When I read the
synopsis for this book on WattPad I was sure
that I was going to love it, even more so
beacuse I'd already read the first book in
the seres The Season and now i've read the book
I can say I wasn't dissapointed, thus the 4 out
of 5 star rating. And because of all the afore
mentioned things I have to say that this is a
book that I will both reccomend to others and
buy it as a gift for anyone I think would
enjoy it.
It was great being back in Libby and Prince
Andrews love story because they are so well
suited that its what you could call a match made
in Heaven. Again the authors writing was so captivating
and evocative that as a reader you
feel as though your experiencing the events along
with characters. One of the debutantes that we meet
in this book is Pricess Dulcina of Ardalone (learn more about her and her family in The Rebel Prince)
who expects to be "crowned" the next queen of
Pretania at the emd of the season thanks to a
Marriage Treaty that was signed by her Father and
the King of Pretania, surfice to say shes not
happy when she looses out to Libby.
I loved the fact that Libby was attending this
seasons as a debutante as apposed to a debutantes attendant, as she was in the first book, she was
still as singleminded, determined, intoreant of
the other debutantes simpering and backstabbing
(as well as the general backstabbing within the royalcourt, and doggedly honest as she was in the first book. The strengthening of the relationships between Libby and the Prince and Princess as well
as the development of the relationship between
the young prince and Prince Andrews best friend
were great.
The one dharacter whos behaviour I couldn't make
sense of at all while reading this book was the
King, because it just seemed so out of character
for him. It baffles me still furher now I've read
the Heiress Queen, the prequel to the series, as it seems completely out of the relms of what you'd
expect from how he was portrayed in this book.
This book was so captivating that from cover to
cover it just couldn't put it down and as soon as
soon as I'd finished reading this one I immediately strated reading the next book in the series The
Rebel Prince (unfortunatley not yet a completed book on WaatPad), because I needed more more more.
Book Information Post
This is the first book in a four book season series, prequel
The Heiress Queen,and it tells the story of Ellas debutante
year of the Season with her young finishing school drop out
cousin, expelled from everyone in Pretania, Libby
Marks-Whelan as her attendant.
It tells of all the goings on in the season along with
Libby's antics while there until her cousin sends her home
after finding out what she'd been upto.
When I read the synopsus for this book on WattPad
I was sure that I was going to love the book and
now I've read the book I can say I wasn't dissapointed,
thus the 4 out of 5 star rating. And because of
this I have to say that this is a book that I
will both reccomend it to others and buy it as
a gift for anyone I think would enjoy it.
Although i can see where other reviewers are
coming from with regard the fact that the
author finished this book when it was so close
to the story being finished and continued the
story in the Debutante I can understand why
the author felt the need to do it. I honestly
don't think it would have been fair not to
finish this book where the author did as it was
about Ella's Debutante year so the remainder
of the story for Libby and Prince Andrew
needed its own book so as not to detract
from Ella's story as that was what this book was
about although Libby played a fairly major part
in it.
Initially I liked Ella because she had invited
Libby to the Palace to be her attendant during
the season, but ultimately I disliked her because
it was clear that she was a mean spirited
schemimg bitch which was obvious when she sent
Libby home for trying to help her win the prince
with her mischeivious antics.
Libby although quite Nieve has a very strong determined
attitude, and cant stand all the us
silly simpering that most of the debutants do
when around the prince while stabbing each
other in the back when the Prince isn't around.
I have to say that I am of the same mind as
her about the simpering and back stabbing of
the Debutants because I to would have no
patience with it either. It was quite clear from
the authors writing that the Prince was neither
taken in by the debutants behaviour nor impressed
with it, which is why he gravitated towards Libby
so much he knew she'd tell him straught when it
came to their behaviour and his behaviour.
The way the author described the characters
really made the reader feel connected to them
but it also made you appreciate all dynamics
between them. I would also say that the way
the author described the places (Palace) and
country (Pretania) the story was set in made
so evocatively made me feel like I was
actually experiencing everything the
charcters were along side them, which is why
in the book whenever Libby was feeliing
frustrated about something or with someone
I felt that frustration to.
I particularly loved the relationships that
developed between Libby and the prince
and pricess as you could see that they were
genuine and going to be long lasting.
All in all I loved this book so much that as
soon as I finished reading it I immediately
started reading the next book in the series
"The Debutante".
As i'm writing this Review not having read the
entire series I can honestly say that whole
series (The Rebel Prince, upto where the authors written
so far) is fantastic and i'll definiteltly
be reading more of her work.

Libby, Ella, Prince Andrew
Pretania, Pretania Palace
Libby Marks-Whelan is decidedly not a lady. Kicked out of nearly every finishing school in the country, she's shocked when her demure, straight-laced cousin Ella invites her to the royal court as an attendant during her debutante season. What Ella fails to realize, however, is that Libby's brand of mischief is exactly the kind of distraction Prince Andrew is looking for during his inaugural season as an eligible bachelor.
This is the first book in a four book season series, prequel The Heiress Queen,and it tells the story of Ella's debutante year of the Season with her young finishing school drop out cousin, expelled from everyone in Pretania, Libby Marks-Whelan as her attendant.

Always on the run and alone, Betsy Samuel never believed she would ever have a family, much less be mated. With scars covering her body and her heart, Betsy decides to trust the three warriors who seem to be working their way into her heart. But would they be able to accept all her hang-ups and the fact she has two other children out there somewhere? Would her Christmas be everything she dreamed of? Barry Zorn had failed his weru once before and he wasn't about to fail his meru. The small woman, Lacey's little sister, had a wall of stone around her heart, but he and his werus were bound and determined to tear the wall down and surround her with love, even if it meant catching a tiger by her tail. But could they give her the best gift possible, her missing children and the Christmas she's always dreamed of? London, a city of history, is the site of their bonding, but would it also be the birthplace of a new era for their large family and heal recent wounds for the women that have given their hearts to these worriers?
This is the fifth book in the Master’s of the Cats series and in it we learn about Betsys story. Although it’s not a deal breaker if you haven’t read the prior books in the series I would say that it would be a good idea to do so in order to have a basic understanding of the Workings of the world in which 3 male mates to one woman is the norm.
Trinity’s writing is so captivating it makes you as the reader want to read the book and be in the world the characters in the story live in. The way she writes the characters and general story line makes you feel connected to each character in some way whch keeps you reading. I love the way that although this book focuses on Betsy Dee’s little sister it still carrys on the base storyline from the prior books so you get to see what happening to all the other characters as well as learn about their relationships with Betsy, and her long lost children once they’ve found them. It was great how when she found each of her children the both seemed to instinctively know she was their mother even though they had been taken away from her as babies.
It was “interesting” learning about the abuse Betsy had experienced at the hands of her father growing up and the sensitive almost loving way Trinity wrote about it made what was a hard subject to read a lot more accessible for the reader as well as providing more background as to why she is as she is.
Knowing her background also made it more understandable why she was so apprehensive to get involved in a relationship with her mates, which is why it was so endearing that her mates were willing to take things so slowly and spend the time showing her what it is to love and be loved.
This is a book that I would /will recommend to anyone who enjoys books about anything paranormal as it’s full of shapeshiftrers, demons and things from other planets, where there into bdsm or not; as the bdsm parts of the story are dealt with in a very sensitive consentual way. I enjoyed this book and the previous ones so much I cant wait to read the rest of the series.
Thank you so much (NetGalley/publisher/author) for allowing me to read this great book in exchange for an honest unbiased review and I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to review it but I wanted to read the other books in the series before reading this one and I’m glad I did it this way because I understood the workings of the world the storys set in already so I wasn’t having to try to make sense of that while reading about Betsy.
Thank you to the Author publisher and Netgalley for allowing me to read this book in exchange for An honest unbiased review.

Lying on a riverbank on a lazy summer’s afternoon – 23rd June 2016, to be precise – Alice spots a flustered-looking white rabbit called Dave calling for a referendum. Following him down a rabbit-hole, she emerges into a strange new land, where up is down, black is white, experts are fools and fools are experts... She meets such characters as the Corbynpillar, who sits on a toadstool smoking his hookah and being no help to anyone; Humpty Trumpty, perched on a wall he wants the Mexicans to pay for; the Cheshire Twat, who likes to disappear leaving only his grin, a pint, and the smell of scotch eggs remaining; and the terrifying Queen of Heartlessness, who’ll take off your head if you dare question her plan for Brexit. Will Alice ever be able to find anyone who speaks sense?
I would like to start this book review by thanking the Author, Publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to read this well written, laugh out loud book in exchange for an honest unbiased review. My opinions of this book have not been influenced in anyway by the fact that I received it for review purposes.
The book tells the story of what happens to Alice when she spots & follows a a flustered-looking white rabbit called Dave calling for a referendum down a rabbit hole on the 23rd of June 2017. It follows her journey through the strange new land she emerges in, where up is down, black is white, experts are fools and fools are experts… During her journey through the strange new land of Brexit she meets characters such as Corbynpillar (who sits on a toadstool smoking his hookah and being no help to anyone); Humpty Trumpty (perched on a wall he wants the Mexicans to pay for); the Cheshire Twat (who likes to disappear leaving only his grin, a pint, and the smell of scotch eggs remaining); and the terrifying Queen of Heartlessness who’ll take off your head if you dare question her plan for Brexit). Will Alice ever be able to find anyone who speaks sense.
I loved the authors satirical twist on Lewis Carole’s story Alice in Wonderland as well as his take on the Key players in Brexit including the idiocy of some of the things they said during the campaign.
This is a book that came at exactly the right time for me as I had recently read lots of books with some hard subjects in them and although this was about a very topical heavy subject due to its satirical nature I gave me some much needed light relief. It was also a very quick and easy read.
Although this is a book will date quickly due to the nature of its content it is still a book that I may re-read in the future as well as recommend to others and buy for people I know who I think may enjoy it.
It is for the reasons above that I have given this book a 5 star rating.
Jesse-Ray Lewis, 19, enters a West Virginia "safe house" with few possessions beyond the kerchiefs that identify him as a gang member. An aged-out foster child, he lands in Bluefield, where a charity gives him food. What follows is the personal, dramatic story of two people who intervene in the life of a homeless, drug-abusing teen with a background of violence and neglect. In their next-door suite called the safe house, they impose three rules: "No alcohol or drugs. You have to work. You have to go to school." Jesse-Ray expresses gratitude for shelter and a middle-aged couple concerned with his welfare. But what does he want? The couple struggle to determine his true motives, especially after he admits being high on meth at their first meeting. At night he writes verse reflecting trauma and violence, shame and love, even despair. Author Andrea Brunais sees more than just a street-smart boy who can write. She sees a soul who can be saved from a downward spiral. But will Jesse-Ray accept the help of strangers, as glimmers of hope expressed in his writings suggest? Will the couple succeed in steering him toward a new life? And how will the ordeal transform everyone?
