Princess
Even
though English was not Dr. Celinia DeForlani’s first language, she spoke it
like a native. So why, when she encountered gorgeous dark haired green-eyed
rugby player Bradlan Myers did she have such a hard time getting his name right?
It
was her final day working at the small London dental clinic before returning
home to her life as Princess Royal of Isola DeMarina, and the very last thing
she expected was to find her remaining hours filled with the captain of
the Norfolk Reds rugby team when he came through her door
missing his two front teeth.
Celinia,
who’d always had a mischievous and somewhat quirky sense of humor, struggles to
cover her laughter as the big handsome somewhat cranky sportsman attempts to
speak to her and can barely spit out a word coherently. The two communicate by
written notes until she begins working on his teeth. He is due to play the
saxophone at his sister’s wedding in only a few hours, and not only must he
have his teeth fixed in time, he cannot have any anesthetic. Celinia speaks
softly and reassuringly to him, as she works, though she continually mistakenly
calls him Bradley.
Dental assistant Gloria Lewis is not only quick to correct
her, but stunned that Celinia has no idea who Bradlan is. The man is world
famous, as much for his looks as his rugby skills. He has graced the covers of
more magazines than anyone can count. But Celinia has been far too busy working
and studying the past few years to pay attention to such things.
The
following morning when Celinia stops by the clinic on her way to the airport to
say goodbye to the kind dentist who has been her boss for the past year, she
discovers that Bradlan has sent her flowers. Though she cannot take them on the
plane, she does take the card. And is amused to discover he has signed himself
‘Bradley’.
When
Celinia arrives home, she relates the tale of Bradlan’s sudden last minute
arrival in her office to her parents. Her sports loving father King Ricardo
instantly recognizes the name, and the twinkle in his daughter’s eye as she
speaks of the handsome athlete and sets about issuing an invitation for
the Norfolk Reds to come to the island to play against his own
team the King’s Warriors...
A mischievous matchmaking
king, a beautiful princess, a superstar rugby player, a naughty Siamese cat and
three jealous courtiers make up the novel Princess.
