Product Description

Product Description

In a world nearly identical to ours, the North won the Civil War, Ben and JLo got married, and everyone dresses well to attend the Grammy's. Oh, and Russia never sold Alaska to the U.S. Instead, Alaska is a rough, beautiful country ruled by a famously eccentric royal family, including oldest daughter, Princess Alexandria, whose acid wit and bad case of insomnia have turned her into a tabloid darling, a palace problem, and overall...Marine biologist Dr. Shel ("Never Sheldon") Rivers has a problem. Some princess expects him to wait on her, hand and dimpled foot. His boss is taken with the royal redhead - brunette, whatever, it's not like he keeps track of that stuff - and nobody realizes that he just wants to be left alone in his lab. All alone. All the time. Weekends, holidays...it's all good. Now, here's Miss Royal pants, insisting that he escort her around the marine institute, explain what he's doing, kiss her until her toes curl...no, wait, that was his idea. She's not even apologetic about being born into a royal family! Says it's his problem to overcome, not hers. Which leaves him with one option: to kiss her again. And again. And...So she's nothing like he expected. In fact, Dr. Rivers can see that this fantastic, exasperating woman has problems no princess should ever have to deal with. And he has an idea to help her get some much-needed sleep. Of course, it involves getting very, very tired beforehand, but if she's up to it, then so is he...

No Pain Here!! 18 Jun 2007
Format:Paperback
The 2nd in Davidson's Alaska Royalty series and her story telling keeps to its brilliant standards.

The story continues off about a year after the first one and focuses on Princess Alexandria. Having to deal with the repercussions of what happened at the airport the princess is now suffering from insomnia and nightmares. With no cure in sight they decide that she needs a break and send her off to America. On her first day there she runs into Dr Sheldon Rivers who hates royalty, inherited rich people, brunettes and cheese. Be sure to say that they get off to a bumpy start.

With all the favourite characters back from the first book you can't help but love this new instalment to the series. I can only hope that she continues with this line as it is one of my favourite worlds to hang out in.

entertaining 25 Nov 2010
By Rebecca
Format:Paperback
Davidson is still oddly obsessed with aquariums and marine biology, but this was still a fun story. The Alaskan Royal family is such a quirky set of characters, I can't see how any story in this series could be anything but entertaining

Disappointing. 24 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
I have read several of Davidson's books and generally enjoy them - they're quick and funny reads. I read the first of the trilogy (The Royal Treatment) a few months back and couldn't quite make up my mind about it, but I thought I'd give the second novel a go anyway.

By quarter of the way through, it had started to grate on my nerves. I just found the characters SO irritating; they were either 'starchy' or, as with the main royal characters, brash and idiotic. One or two characters with these traits you could pass over, but it was virtually all of them! For me, when I realized I got fed up with the characters, it ruined the rest of the book.
