In Bed with the Beast (The Naughty Princess Club, #2)

by Tara Sivec

[Eve1972]

This book started off really good but around halfway through I just started to get bored, and I ended up skimming the last half of it. Belle and her friends acted and spoke like a bunch of teenagers. Since we never get any of Vincent's POV, he just came across like a one-dimensional cardboard cutout. I didn't feel any real connection between Vincent or Belle. Not to mention she spends the first half of the book going on one blind date after the other.





Also, the fact that these heroines are strippers and their heroes are A-OK with them taking their clothes off for other men kind of bothered me. I have NO idea why it bothered me in this instance since I read books with sharing etc. and am not bothered by it, but here it annoyed me a lot. There is also only one sex scene very late in the book, so that was disappointing as well. That said, I did love Belle's father, and it did have a few laugh out loud moments. But all in all, it just wasn't my cup of tea, and I won't be bothering with the next book.
