Title: Prison Princess<\/a> (Paranormal Prison Collection<\/a>)
Author: CoraLee June<\/a> & Rebecca Royce<\/a>
Genre: Paranormal Romance
My rating:<\/strong> 4 of 5<\/a> stars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

More stories from the Paranormal Prison; this time, a tale from Coralee June and Rebecca Royce about the Prison Princess and an assassin with heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raised as an assassin, looking for an opportunity to make some coin, Cypress is more than willing to breach the walls of the Nightmare Penitentiary to free the long lost druid princess. If only the act could be as neatly done as the summary suggests. Because Layne is not what he expects, and juggling a naive, babe-in-a-new-world who is in awe of nearly everything from grass to gowns is a bit out of his job description of a cold-blooded killer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

This book is a great read, a real page-turner. The world-building is generous, and the characters are solid. I enjoy the lore of the Paranormal Prison and the ongoing thread of Dr. Brina and the other reappearing characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t want to put Prison Princess down and read the entire book in one sitting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will throw out a trigger warning to readers; there are suggestions of events in this book of sexual nature that may unsettle some readers. This is a book that takes place in a PRISON, so I also think that should be its own disclaimer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I’ve yet to read a Paranormal Prison book that I didn’t like, and I recommend Noir Reformatory, Delinquent Demons, and Siren Condemned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary advance copy of this book<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Title: Prison Princess (Paranormal Prison Collection)
Author: CoraLee June & Rebecca Royce
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Release Date:<\/strong> 13 April 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imprisoned, tormented and forgotten…
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve never seen the outside of these four walls. I was born in Nightmare Penitentiary, and I\u2019ll probably die here too.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or so I thought.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When an assassin captures me, I realize I\u2019m far more powerful than anyone knows. I\u2019m a princess. A Druid. The last of my kind. I command the earth and the moon speaks to me. There is royal blood running through these veins.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tasked with bringing me back to my family, my captor is stuck by my side. The more time we spend together, the more I learn about the birthright stolen from me and the enemy who stole it. And the longer I\u2019m with my assassin, the more my heart softens.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I never imagined that a harsh, lonely man would bring help. I never thought that leaving Nightmare would put me on a much different path. A path full of hope. Of freedom. Of love. A path that leads to accepting my birthright, with an assassin by my side.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the future is blurry. There are two roads. One leads to happiness\u2014to love. The other leads to demise. And even I can\u2019t see which one wins.

About Rebecca Royce:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Rebecca
Rebecca Royce<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As a teenager, I would hide in my room to read my favorite romance novels when I was supposed to be doing my homework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u200bI am the mother of three adorable boys and I am fortunate to be married to my best friend. I live in Austin Texas where I am determined to eat all the barbecue in town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u200bI am in love with science fiction, fantasy, and the paranormal and try to use all of these elements in my writing. I’ve been told I’m a little bloodthirsty so I hope that when you read my work you’ll enjoy the action packed ride that always ends in romance. I love to write series because I love to see characters develop over time and it always makes me happy to see my favorite characters make guest appearances in other books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my world anything is possible, anything can happen, and you should suspect that it will.
