Kiss the Girl (The Naughty Princess Club, #3) by Tara Sivec #KissTheGirl













Blurb: 

A struggling antiques collector finds herself falling in love with a millionaire playboy; but can she ever be a part of his world?

Meet the Naughty Princess Club, a series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that brings readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that three women fall into once they decide to strut their stuff and bring on their own happily ever after.

While her friends have broken free of their insecurities, Ariel Waters is struggling to come out of her shell. Her ex-husband took away her voice and her self-confidence, and Ariel is drowning under a sea of debt to afford the alimony she has to pay him. She refuses to ever fall for a man’s charms again, and is determined to make her own way.
When her house and her beloved antiques are taken by the bank after too many missed payments, Ariel finds herself adrift until the infuriatingly charming Eric Sailor comes to her rescue. Although she can’t stand the millionaire playboy, Eric’s kindness and unconditional support reveal hidden depths and a love that Ariel never imagined she could find.

But there are outside influences who will stop at nothing to keep them apart; can Ariel and Eric weather the storm and find a way to be together?



I'm really torn when it comes to this book. It took me so many tries to finally read it. It got better the more confident the heroine became but at the beginning, she simply got on my nerves with all her yelling and swearing and such. As I said, it got better but... Honestly? She reminded me much more of a (very) cranky, hormone-ridden teenager than a grown woman.

Sure, Ariel is kind of growing on you and she keeps getting better and more confident and starts to speak more and yell less but that just made it readable. It's not the swearing and her use of ...let's call them less-than-polite-words but the fact that she doesn't seem to be able to talk normally and in an appropriate manner.

Even though Eric, our hero doesn't seem to mind her way and accepts her just the way she is, I felt that despite the fact that he really gets Ariel and her way of thinking, he is really clueless. I mean - all this stuff about his mother and her role...well.

Soooo... even though I liked this group of friends and the way they stand up for each other and care for each other and even though I loved to see Ariel stand up for herself and the things that are important to her, it couldn't make up for everything.
