A Billionaire Prince Romance Boxed Set: The Complete Series: The Royal Trade, The Royal Pain, The Royal Mistake, The Royal Treatment by Erin HayesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
#1 The Royal Trade - 5*
Cara met Phillip at University and he's the man of her dreams. He is also the prince of an island nation in the Mediterranean. They are engaged and she is living a dream life until it all comes crashing down when he publicly cheats on her. She's distraught and has to run away when she is met at the airport by his brother Eric who offers her the chance to run away from it all to have time to think about everything. Will they manage to stay hidden and can Eric win her because he saw her first and has loved her ever since then? Will Cara be able to love again and will she see Eric as the right brother for her?
This is a charming love story with lots of raw emotions and great descriptions of where they are and what they did to take their minds off of everything at their destination. The ending was very sweet and I definitely felt the emotion.
#2 The Royal Pain - 5*
Phillip is trying to move on quietly after a public break-up from his ex-fiancee - the problem is as a billionaire and a prince that is not exactly easy to achieve. Then he meets a beautiful media CEO who is more famous than he is - however she is not interested in helping him with his redemption - just in being a royal pain.
This was a lovely story that continued the story after the previous book and focused on Phillip and how he handles the fallout of his infidelity, break-up and then marriage between his ex-fiancee and his younger brother. He certainly had a lot to handle and was starting to sort himself out when he meets Jess and his world is spun on its axis. It was well written and nicely explained. I think she was very tolerant of the person who published as I think I would have thrown the book at them.
#3 The Royal Mistake - 5*
Prince Henry and Cat meet and after more than a few drinks have a wild one nightstand. The next morning he is his usual pompous racing car driver self and Cat leaves to go back to New York and continue her focus on her career. When Jessica (Cat's old boss) invites her to Dubreva to work for her again she meets a recovering Prince Henry after an accident and he is determined to rekindle what happened between them that night. Her news of 2 pink lines on a stick adds to the complication of the whole situation.
I loved this story. The story was very involved and complicated in the situation between them as well as their own stories. Everything was well written and the emotions were very clearly described so that I could feel them myself. I was definitely rooting for them both and that they would be able to sift through their thoughts and feelings to reach the conclusion I wanted them to get to.
#4 The Royal Treatment - 4*
Prince Ferdinand knew he wasn't important in the line of succession and was fine with that. When he met diplomat's daughter Alexandra Daae who was destined to marry his cousin, it was him she fell for and they were all ready to break all the rules for love when tragedy struck and the future they had dreamed of was shattered. He is still not over it even 15 years later when his younger brother has a baby with his partner and he just has to leave Dubreva for a while to deal with the heartache. Miraculously he spots Alexandra there and everything starts to change for the better. Can fate finally be on their side?
This was a sweet story and on the face of it was very enjoyable, but the merging of the past and the present in the same chapter of the book became a little irritating in the end. So I enjoyed the story but then I also didn't enjoy some aspects of it which were a shame as they came to the conclusion that I knew was right (even if I hadn't really understood why certain things happened in the past). A nice story which was enjoyable if you bear in mind the shifts in the timeline.
