The Bachelor Prince by Debbie Macomber (Audio Edition)
Narrated by Tavia Gilbert

3 Stars - This was a simple, sweet, and predictable romance. Pretty much what I guessed it would be. I hadn't read this author before so I wondered what she was like, as my library has a ton of her books.

For me, I would've liked a bit more passion, and by that I don't mean sex (which there was none btw.) I was just hoping for that chemistry between the characters that gives me all the fluttery feelings, which sadly didn't happen for me here.

You kinda get a 2 for 1 romance here, I actually found the secondary characters had more of a spark between them, than the leads. All round it was a nice story and the narrator did a really good job I thought.

In Macomber’s romance novel, Prince Stefano is a man who could choose any woman he wants and this very eligible and handsome prince needs a wife. His search brings him to the shores of America determined to return home with the perfect bride. Hope Jordan falls for the prince the instant their eyes meet but there’s just one problem—Hope has no wealth to bring to any marriage least of all a prince. All she can offer him is her love and her heart but will that be enough to land her prince?

An inspiring story illustrating that love conquers all. ( )

La bella e giovane Hope Jordan è una ragazza indipendente che, dovendo lavorare sodo per portare avanti la propria attività nel campo della ristorazione, non ha tempo da dedicare alle romanticherie che invece le sue coetanee ritengono così importanti. Ma Doris, la sua esuberante madre, non demorde e cerca in tutti i modi di trovare l'occasione per farla distrarre. L'ultima sua scoperta è veramente strabiliante: Doris decide di regalare alla figlia un biglietto della lotteria un po' speciale. In palio c'è una fantastica serata da trascorrere in compagnia del principe Stefano di San Lorenzo, l'uomo che tutte le donne sperano di sposare. Sarà lei la fortunata?
