Jade Oliver
is in need of funds. Her younger brother is still in the
Hospital and her wicked step-mother sold her family home out
from under her. She thinks she has what it takes to be the
one to keep the books at the Stony Creek Station, especially
with the gorgeous owner Blake Jordan living there. If she is
able to find the secret Opal stash on the property at the same
time all will be well for this princess. She doesn’t count on
the attraction she feels for Blake, or that he might be
interested in her. When she propositions him, and he turns
her down she is not only embarrassed by disappointed.
Blake wants
this Station to be as successful as it was years ago; he just
needs the right group of people and livestock to make it
happen. When he is suddenly bombarded by Jade for the book
keeping job he is stunned. He didn’t know it was possible for
anyone to talk as fast or as much as she can. He decides to
hire her on a trial basis, though what he really wants to do
is get her in bed. The princess seems to have a few to many
secrets though, and that bothers him.
Priceless Princess is a heartfelt cowboy story set in
the australian outback. I enjoyed the way the story tied not
only the main characters to the story but also the past lives
of the “Princesses”. Ms. Carlisle did a wonderful job
portraying Jade and her non-stop conversations as well as the
frustration of those who weren’t used to her. The chemistry
between the main characters is easily believable, which also
makes Priceless Princess an enjoyable read. |
