All I want is to help those who need it the most. So when a devastatingly handsome stranger lands in Neon Nights, the gay bar where we spend our days and nights, I immediately know he’s in trouble. I also know that we share an instant connection that comes once in a lifetime, but our clumsy kiss freaks him out and turns the night into a total disaster.
The truth is that Cedric Philippe Valois Montclair is no random stranger looking for a place to stay. He is a foreign prince about to be engaged to a woman his family picked for him. Facing the prospect of an arranged marriage, the charming prince ran to New York and fell into my arms.
Cedric is a dreamer, an art lover, and hell in a tight shirt. He makes my mouth water and my heart melt.
Can I protect him from his family’s pursuit? And can I resist that endless pull of attraction?
I know I can never be more than a friend to him. Even if he didn’t have to marry a French marchioness, he couldn’t be with me. But every minute we spend on the dance floor, our hands exploring each other’s biceps and backs, my desire for him becomes hotter.
I’m about to do something stupid. I’m about to fall in love with a prince.
‘The Cinderella Prince,’ delves into a world that beautifully intertwines joy, sadness, heartache, and undeniable heat. This book offers a unique twist on the classic Cinderella story, presenting a heartfelt and romantic tale you won’t want to miss.
Tristan and Cedric, the main characters, are incredibly well-crafted. Tristan is a poor boy facing pain and a lack of confidence while working part-time at the Neon Nights Bar. His uncertain self-worth makes him deeply relatable. On the other hand, Prince Cedric is an adorable character who tries to support himself without relying on his royal family’s wealth. His washing dishes at the bar to make ends meet adds an authentic touch to his royal persona.
The story centers around Cedric, who runs away from his royal responsibilities, only to find love in the unlikeliest of places—a drag bar. His relationship with Tristan is sweet and romantic; together, they help each other discover their true selves, bringing about personal growth and mutual support. Their journey is filled with both joy and a deep emotional connection, captivating readers from start to finish.
If there’s one aspect of ‘The Cinderella Prince’ that felt lacking, it’s the ending. The story concludes too abruptly, without a proper reconciliation between Tristan and his friends at Neon Nights Bar. Additionally, the book doesn’t touch on how Tristan’s relationship with his parents improves. This left me yearning for a more satisfying closure to an otherwise enthralling tale.
