His True Queen is brilliant

Here is my excited opinion of HIS TRUE QUEEN!! :-D I promised you one, and you deserve to know why this book is mandatory pleasure ;-)

His True Queen by Jodi Ellen Malpas 

Series: Smoke & Mirrors Duology Book 2 

Publication Date: August 7th, 2018 

Genre: Contemporary Romance

MY OPINION

Positively alluring. And mind-blowing to the last page.

I plunged myself into a pool of grief and despair that was this princess’ life after the first book, and it was so thrilling.

The idea of a duet is as attractive as the royal theme, especially if it’s in England, and the mind of JEM has paid a worthy tribute to it. I couldn’t be more invested in Adeline’s fate as I was rooting for her to use her strength to fight for what’s right, yet also to keep her beloved by her side.

The weight of duty is like a heavy blanket on a sweltering-hot day, yet I loved how strong, vulnerable and real Adeline behaved during her struggle to face it all.

This Lady Danger with a regal label has raised the stakes in this finale. The potent cocktail of forbidden love, the farce of perfection in the eyes of the world, and clipped wings on a free soul had me mesmerized. This royal romance couldn’t get any better and more intense than this!

Josh, the American boy who falls in love with a sassy English princess, becomes dangerously demanding and impossibly hot. Clandestine passion explodes in between suffocating marathons of royal duty, all intricately described until you feel immersed in their roles. Adeline is a woman stuck between two opposing worlds, one of the heart and one of inherited obligations. Each decision she takes is embedded with hard choices.

Beyond the drama and the angst, there’s also a gratefully and gracefully huge amount of lust, and loads of humor too.

That Damon is priceless. I’m a little in love with him too :-D Edward, the Fallen Prince, would also deserve at least a novella to tell his woes.

A mountain of lies and secrets keeps piling up, trying to mash Adeline’s spirit and this unrelenting couple’s love, but they fight so valiantly. It’s a pleasure to witness love conquer all. Never have I ever read a more perfect royal romance, so intense and inspiring. I absolutely adored it. Love is the best kind of trouble indeed.

It’s the author’s best work yet.

A beautiful, defiant princess.

A renowned, sinfully gorgeous Hollywood actor.

A love affair that is sure to rock the British Monarchy…and the world.

Their love affair began intensely and passionately. Princess Adeline and Josh Jameson knew any future together was impossible—her status as a princess and his standing as a Hollywood heartthrob dictated that. But the heights of pleasure they could take each other to were wildly unanticipated by them both.Josh’s absolute disregard for Adeline’s status quickly drew her into his hedonistic world. And her perfectly worn mask and false façade captivated Josh to the point of obsession.The boundaries became blurred. The physical became emotional. Their hearts became entwined.

But a cruel turn of events rips their worlds apart and Adeline is more bound than ever by the protocol and expectations her title commands. The army of royal advisors who guard the secrets and scandals of the Monarchy will go to unthinkable lengths to keep the smoke and mirrors in place…and Josh away from Adeline. She knows the power she possesses comes with agonizing sacrifices. Walking away from Josh devastates her…but it keeps him safe from the corrupt institution that has ruled her life.Yet Josh refuses to lose the woman who has consumed him so completely, distorted his boundaries, and stripped him of all sensibility.Will the power of the British Monarchy triumph? Or will Adeline and Josh’s fierce love for each other change the course of history?

 ENJOY AN EXCERPT :-)

“You’re lying to me.” Josh shouts. “You’re lying to yourself. You’re lying to every single person in this fuckin’ world.” He stomps forward, and I blindly stumble back, catching my foot on a stray branch. I lose my footing and fall to my arse in a pile of dry leaves. I don’t yelp because it doesn’t hurt—I’m numb to everything except Josh—but I do curse to high heaven, further cementing Josh’s claim that I have a vulgar mouth. “God damn it.” With my palms splattered on the muddy ground behind me, my knees bent, I look up at the man looming over me. “This is all your fault.” “I take full responsibility,” He says. “For everything.” Everything? “Like what?” “Your fall. My feelings.” Josh offers his hand, but I ignore it, getting myself to my feet and brushing myself down of dry leaves. “For your feelings,” he finishes softly. My hands falter midway down my jodhpurs. “I do not have any feelings,” I grate, ignoring the unrelenting…feelings. The warmth, the disappearance of my woes, the heady sensations of want manifesting within me. Me. Him. 

The potent cocktail of chemistry we create, just being in each other’s presence. The woodland surrounding us is drenched in it. The atmosphere is thick. I glance up when a few moments have passed, silent moments, and meet his eyes. The amber swirl of desire sparkles madly. My heart kicks. He licks his lips, and I follow the path of his tongue from one corner of his mouth to the other. “Stop,” I whisper, to who I don’t know. Him? Me? My hands come up to my head, my fingertips pushing into my temples, as if I’m trying to force every reason why this can’t happen to the front of my mind. I look for my father’s words, but I find other words instead. You will be ripped apart. Eddie will be ripped apart. Your father’s and brother’s memory with be tarnished. But…I fell so madly in love with a man, and now I am being forced to disregard that. Can I? Should I? I swivel on my boots and run. I can’t trust my head to talk reason, can’t promise I’ll even listen to my reason if I find it, so I’m depending on my legs to take me away as quickly as they can. “No thumbs down,” he growls, snatching my wrist and yanking me to a stop, spinning me to face him. 

My face is grabbed with one brutal hand, and his mouth is quickly on mine. He’s gone low, way below the belt, and worse still, we both know it will work. My universe seems to align, positive and negative working together, our lips glued by an invisible, highly powerful force. Then I feel his tongue sweep through my mouth and explosions of the most calming kind erupt in my soul. My keen hands find his hair and force him closer, our kiss crazed and messy, but so utterly calming and immaculate. I let him guide my backward steps, I let him spin me away from him, and I let him thrust me up against a tree trunk. The scratchiness of the bark on my forehead doesn’t faze me. I’m too blindsided by the reminder of what we share. Hips pushed into my arse, his wet mouth by my cheek, Josh holds me tightly. Possessively. Like he owns me. And I don’t care. He’s the only thing in this world I don’t mind controlling me. He reaches to my hips and slowly draws my jodhpurs over my backside. His lazy approach could be mistaken for giving me time to deny him. It’s not. He’s merely prolonging my agony. I want him so badly, and he knows it. His hand on my arse. His mouth all over me. Bringing my arms up to the tree, I rest my head on them to lessen the risk of grazing my head when he strikes me. Thwack! As is always the way when Josh tans my backside, I don’t cry out in pain, but rather moan my way through it, being carried to another world. A world where I am not me, but just his. And then his fingers are between my thighs and he’s massaging me gently, my flesh wet and ready for him. “Some things don’t change,” he whispers, biting at my cheek, circling his fingers, plunging them deeply, scissoring my swollen clitoris. 

“Thank God. Tell me you’ve missed me, Adeline.” “I’ve missed you,” I say on demand, my pleasure making it more of a labored whisper than a sure proclamation, as my pulse races and my desire for him multiplies unstoppably. I start to roll my head, my knees becoming weak. And when I reach the pinnacle of pleasure, I feel like every shitty thing in this world pours from my body with my climax, my whole being relaxed for the first time in weeks. I’ve needed this so much. Needed him.

I'm bringing you my opinion of this book on my post of the tour tomorrow 😉

Enjoy your reading life. 

I proclaim you a Controversial Princess

Book buddies, I cannot begin to express how excited I am about this story. It's such a satisfaction to be able to read and contribute to the promotion of this book by JODI ELLEN MALPAS whose fan I've been since day one. She writes with so much passion :-)

The Controversial Princess 

by Jodi Ellen Malpas 

Publication Date: May 22^nd, 2018 

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Her father is The King of England.

She is The Controversial Princess.

Regarded as down to earth by the press and rebellious by The King, Princess Adeline refuses to bow to the royal expectations her title carries. She knows better than anyone that the united front of the royal family is nothing but smoke and mirrors – lies and secrets masked by power and privilege. She wants no part of it, and she will never surrender to The King’s demand to marry a man she does not love. But despite Adeline’s determination to retain her free will, she remains deeply unfulfilled, feeling caged and suffocated.

That is until she meets Josh Jameson. Drawn in by his confidence, Adeline is soon captivated by the scandalously sexy American actor. His ability to penetrate her defences overwhelms her – his touch is pure fire, and his allure overpowering. Nothing has ever made her feel so alive in a world where she’s otherwise slowly drowning. However, while Josh may be Hollywood royalty, he’s not actual royalty, and Adeline knows The King and his advisors will do everything in their power to keep them apart.

But Josh Jameson becomes the princess’s ultimate vice.

And although she bows to no one, she bows to him.

MY OPINION

First of all, this story is scandalously fun.

Second, the princess on the cover may look demure and graceful, but the real princess inside is rambunctious, booze-obsessed and very unladylike. What's more, the romance is anything but conventional. Don't hesitate and dive in!

The royal life of duties and public performance in the story is shown in detail and counterbalanced by a wild behaviour behind closed doors for this strong-willed princess. She's in charge of her rebellious bouts of fun because she cannot decide on anything else. After all, her father the King rules her life, too.

That's why meeting Josh Jameson is like applying fire to black powder.

OMG.

The first encounter between the hot American actor and the sassy British princess is alive with incendiary flirting and electrifyingly naughty passion. It surprised me to say the least. It's hot, it's outrageous, and so forbidden it is plain sinful.

The heat crosses boundaries and will tinge your cheeks. All of them :-D

Though this romance is more than flesh-deep. It touches on the need to connect with another human being beyond traditions or expectations. It appeals to anyone's crave for freedom and true happiness.

I love, love the moment Adeline and Josh give in and accept their fierce longing for each other. They share moments of stark pleasure and delightful laughs. Those conversations around a certain premiere are so heartfelt!

This mismatched couple fights against hungry media, old-fashioned royals and unmovable conventions to get their happily-ever-after. Entertainment and gasps are guaranteed throughout that process.

The drama gains momentum up to an exhilarating climax overflowing with defiance, tragedy and a wildly shocking cliffhanger. Wow. I NEED the continuation that will release this August! Like oxygen…

ENJOY AN EXCERPT:

Leaning over, he kisses the tip of my nose. “Now, food’s on the way. We’ll have a carpet picnic, what do ya say?” “I’ve never had a carpet picnic before.” “Say what?” He looks horrified. “Never?” My shoulders jump up on a little shrug. “It’s all fine dining, posh china, and solid silver cutlery at a table that’s so shiny you can see your face in it.” “Then tonight we fix that.” He pulls me up and walks us through to the lounge. “Get all the cushions on the floor.” He pulls a throw off the back of a chair and wafts it into the air while I pull all the cushions from the couch. I watch as Josh gets on his hands and knees and starts pulling at the corners of the blanket, straightening it out and placing cushions. I have a permanent smile on my face, fascinated by his deep concentration. 

“You are doing a tremendously good job,” I say, clearing my face of my smile when his motions falter and he looks up at me. One of his eyes narrows, and in a lightning move, he snatches my wrist and yanks me down to the floor. I cry in surprise, being rolled to my back until I’m once again pinned against something by his body. Not that I’m complaining. Would never dream of it. I blow a tickling hair from my nose and grin at him. “You’re making fun of me.” He dips and bites the end of my nose. “Not at all.” I chuckle, squirming beneath him while he makes a meal of my face. 

“Too good for a carpet picnic, are you? You want a throne?” “Definitely not,” I blurt. “Unless your face will be my throne.” Josh pulls back speedily on a little choke, his eyes bulging. I press my lips together as he stares at me in shock, like how could such a vulgar thing have fallen from the lips of a princess? “I think I just fell in love with you.” It’s my turn to choke. “Blimey, you fall easily, don’t you?” “Actually, I don’t fall at all.” “No?” 

  He shakes his head. “Baby, I’ll be your throne any day of the week.” “Honored.” “It is me who’s honored. It’s not every day a real-life princess tells you she wants to sit on your face.” Laughter erupts from deep within me, my eyes clenching shut, my head thrown back. My position and lack of control gives Josh the perfect opportunity to ravish my throat. And he does, growling dramatically, squirming above me...rubbing me.
