What if Cinderella went to the ball...and got pregnant?

Bad boy Prince Charlie doesn't want to marry, but the Prince's Ball has only one purpose: to find a bride for the future king.

He doesn't expect to be tempted by any of the ladies vying for his attention (or his title)...least of all the woman he finds sneaking around his castle.

The problem? Even when sparks fly, she refuses to tell him her name.

And when the clock strikes midnight, his mystery woman runs.

But Prince Charlie has made his choice. He's found his future bride...

Now he just needs to catch her.

About the Author

Lilian Monroe lives in a luxurious jungle treehouse surrounded by lush greenery, with an army of scantily-clad men with rippling abdominal muscles ready to attend to her every need.

No, wait. That's not true.

Lilian Monroe spends her days dangling her feet into her pool, while the scantily-clad pool boy with rippling abdominal muscles feeds her chocolate covered strawberries and massages her back.

Okay, okay. You got me. That's not true either. Let's try again.

Lilian Monroe lives at home with her two children, three dogs and twelve chickens. Her husband likes to work shirtless in the back yard. His sweaty, gleaming abdominal muscles ripple with every movement and he-

I'm sorry I have to stop. Fine, I'll admit it, that one isn't true either.

How about this: Lilian Monroe loves thinking about men with rippling abdominal muscles serving her hand and foot, and she wants you to think about them too! She is an avid reader, writer, and lover of all things romance.

She loves everything from bad boys to billionaires. Her books are packed with hot hot heat, action, suspense, and everything from second chances to single dads. She hates cheating and loves a good happily ever after (and rippling abs).

Lilian Monroe adores writing swoonworthy heroes and the women who bring them to their knees. She loves making people laugh and is eternally grateful to have found people who share her sense of humor.

When she’s not writing, she’s reading (or rereading) a book, walking, lifting weights, or attempting to play the guitar with very limited success.

She grew up in Canada but now lives in Australia with her Irish husband. He frequently asks to be used as a cover model for her books, and she’s not quite sure whether or not he’s joking.

couldn’t put it down

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2021

Okay this was better than I was thinking it would be.

The blurb drew me in but the characters captured my attention. A great contemporary twist on Cinderella.

Steamy, with great chemistry, political mechanics and betrayals galore. Oh that brutal twist at the end…epic! Loved it!! Poor boys though. Glad they got justice though.

Loved that the leading lady was no shrinking violet either. A powerful, motivated athlete with a goal in mind and the will to see it through.

MODERN DAY SEXY CINDERELLA

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

I loved it! It really is like a modern day Cinderella but with way more mystery, suspense and lots and lots of set your crotch on fire smokin hot sex. Elle is strong but vulnerable and she's determined to make something of herself. Never knowing her real parents and growing up in foster care made her a stronger person, she knows what she capable of and what she wants and that's to be loved. Her adoptive parents Tina and Frank are both special people who love her and she loves them but something has still always been missing and the fact that she comes from the poor part of the Kingdom she goes to a rich college on a rowing scholarship and for three years she's tormented and until she meets Prince Charlie she's never felt beautiful or as loved as he makes her feel. Elle's roommate Dahlia is unusual but she's fun and outgoing and she's kind of a free spirit. I loved her character. She's happy go lucky and she's a very trustworthy friend and she is values her friendship to Elle. Charlie and Elle feel this strong overwhelming attraction to each other and their chemistry is off the charts smokin hot. Neither of them can deny the explosive feeling they have for one another. This book pulled at my heartstrings alittle because no matter how much they felt for each other or how much they loved each other there were always unspoken forces in the background that would never let them be together and Elle always down to earth knew it. I really enjoyed this book. At time the excitement was suspenseful and at times I laughed and times I cried. I recommend this book to everyone it romantic and erotic and is just a feel good story.

Prince and commoner, a story as old as time but this story brings elements of mystery, love, betrayal and murder!! A page turner, starts a little slow but once the energy picks up you fly through the storyline and everything ends extremely well. Great character development, I literally cheered out loud for Elle at the regatta. This story sucks you in, makes you a subject of the kingdom and doesn’t leave you disappointed. Great job

I'm not always a Total or Unexpected Pregnancy Trope fan, but sometimes it's Just the thing you need.... This book Bad Prince by Lilian Monroe was a really enjoyable read! There was some angst involved in the fact that he's a Royal and she's not and they can never really be together. But thankfully there's a HEA and I could breathe again. Nick J Russo and Roseland Waters did a great job narrating, loved it!!

College Romance

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2023

Verified Purchase

Elle shares a house with her best friend, an athlete on the college rowing team. She is a scholarship kid who works hard to keep her free ride. She is different from the high-class girls at her school, and they don't spare a moment but her in her place. They also seem to swoon about a confident Prince Charles.

Charlie, or Prince Charles, is a tattooed bad boy. He has life goals of doing what he wants when he wants. He didn't want to do his heir duty and settle down with children.

Oh, an invite to take her bestie's place at the ball; how can she resist? The ball complicates things as she has a tryst with a certain prince, and this book becomes Cinderella-like with the following actions. But a lot steamier than the usual telling of that story. I like the swoony gestures and the self-doubting average woman. I even like that the bad boy prince is learning about himself as they enjoy this torrid experience. However, life is more challenging for them.

She ain't wrong in her thoughts about being royally f****d. They really are opposites. This will change many things, and I am still determining what will happen to them. I'm not too fond of his decision, which is very emotional. Finally, we get the happily ever after part of this story, and the ending is perfect.

I'm a huge sucker for Cinderella and this gave me that, just with more of an adult twist added. I wish she would've taken it further and highlighted the response to the canceled wedding from that wretched Olivia, But that may be the petty that lives within me. Cute, cute, cute story!

A Quick Read with Fantastic Drama!

Reviewed in Canada on August 24, 2022

Verified Purchase

This quick, adorable standalone was a delight to read. It was well written, had a great plot with good pacing, and had a cast of characters that were easy to fall in love with. The author did a great job with keeping the balance between the romance, the drama, and the angst, making this book easy to get lost in and hard to put down. Since this book is a standalone in a connected series of standalones, it tells a complete story but still connects with the rest of the series. As this book deals with some heavy topics, trigger warnings will be included at the end of my review on Goodreads for those who need them.

For her entire college career, Elle has been focused on one thing: training to win the biggest rowing competition in the country; using the prize money and her rowing scholarships to stay at her prestigious college and get a degree she can use to support herself in the future. As an orphan who was adopted later in life, she knows the importance riding on her ability to stay focused, but despite her best efforts, she can’t resist the opportunity to dress up for a night and sneak into the most anticipated party of the year: Prince Charles’ birthday party where it’s rumoured he’ll be choosing a wife. When her party crashing leads to a steamy, reckless tryst with the Prince himself, Elle panics but can’t bring herself to regret the moment, and despite her plan to avoid him and keep their time together as nothing more than a memory, Prince Charlie isn’t ready to let her go.

As time passes and Elle and Charlie grow closer and closer, complications within the castle walls threaten to tear them apart, and as Elle discovers a shocking truth that has the potential to change their lives forever, they need to decide if being together is worth not only their future together, but the future of the entire kingdom as well.

The plot of this book was super cliché and I loved it! I’m a sucker for a good accidental pregnancy trope, and combined with the royal/commoner aspect of this book, it was deliciously tropey and great fun to read. It had lots of good drama and complications to keep the story interesting, and though I’m not particularly a fan of a third act breakup, the author did a good job with it in this book. The plot made sure to give time for not only the spicy and sweet romance to bloom, but the scheming and underhanded problems to fester as well, taking readers along on a fast moving journey to this couple’s happily ever after.

Like the rest of the story, the romance between the MCs was fast moving, but it worked incredibly well in this book. The author gave time for the MCs to know each other inside and outside the bedroom, and with the help of the dual POVs, it gave readers confidence in the HEA this couple was fighting for. Though it moved a bit too fast in my opinion, I still loved the ending to this book, especially loving the epilogue that gave a glimpse into the future for this couple.

All in all, this was a quick, cute read that was well written, entertaining, and put a smile on my face.

I took a chance on this book, a new author story and I loved it. What a beautiful read. Absolute page turner. I truly enjoyed reading, learning, experience all the highs and lows. The sexual tension, the emotional turmoil and the true happy ending is swoonworthy and OMG. I highly recommend this book to romance lovers and anyone who wants a happily ever after. The story flows beautifully and enrapture you until the very end.

Bad Prince Indeed!

Reviewed in Australia on February 1, 2021

Verified Purchase

Charlie can me my bad prince any day of the week!
It was fast paced, exhilarating, there relationship forbidden, there love provocative, the romance heartwarming and beautiful, there love so passionate, they desire each other above all else, defying those who would get in there way.
The truths, the lies it always circles back, knowing that it’s wrong, but knowing that it’s right. When left with little to no choice, backed into a tight corner, he does what only he can, and then, his mother, his guardian angel gives him what he never thought he’d get, the truth and the honest love of a woman.
And those love scenes in and out of the bedroom were deliciously wicked, steamy, oh so hot, dirty, wet, passionate and wild, and f@#$ yes to there happily ever after, this author knows how to write and keep her readers engaged and have them coming back for more!

This was a sweet fairytale romance that reminded me of Cinderella a little. Well...if Cinderella had sex with the Prince in the gym before midnight. Overall it was a good story.

Royally unexpected

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 16, 2021

Verified Purchase

Well... I expected this book to be a little raunchy, a bit of fun and less substance but I was pleasantly surprised. Prince Charlie is your typical play boy in his twenties having his way with whatever and whoever he wants, and loves to rebel against his father the king.

Elle is an orphan who uses her hardworking demeaned and athletic talent to drive her to where she wants to be. So what could go wrong when people from the opposite end of the tracks have a spark they cannot deny.

It’s saucy, it’s secretive, it’s sexy. But there’s so much more. I loved watching their story unfold, I loved the incredible support and sass from bestie Dahlia and most of all I love a scandal.

With a controlling and scheming father, centuries old traditions and an uphill battle can Prince
Charlie and Elle defy the odds or is it just yet another scandal unfolding before our eyes?

The story was enticing and fun but filled with heartbreak, struggles, love and chosen families. A perfect life s not what it seems and someone with so little has everything they need right in front of their eyes.

What a journey. Its profanities and naughtiness had me laughing. Unapologetic behaviours had me smug and blatant snotty attitudes left a bitter taste in my mouth. I’m glad I continued with the story.
