SYNOPSIS
Small-town girl, Katie O’Connor has always dreamed of seeing her name in lights. Check the box for fame, a movie deal, the perfect leading role that comes with a gorgeous leading man! Katie moved to Hollywood, elbows her way into auditions, lives on a shoestring budget—whatever is required to land a deal, she throws her heart into… until she’s involved in a royal kidnapping.
As the future king, Prince Alexander refuses to rule from an ivory tower. Duty-bound, he intends to relate to his future subjects, regardless of their walk of life. Before his coronation, he needs a foolproof plan to outrun his security team and go temporarily AWOL. While visiting L.A., all it takes is a sound stage collision and Alex is blindsided by a headstrong woman who is simply irresistible. So much so, he calls in a favor in order to secure her help … as his pretend girlfriend.
Their worlds are oceans apart, but their immediate attraction is impossible to put aside, especially their nonstop banter. Miffed at being wrangled into a situation that might blow up in her face, Katie comes up with her own plan. If The Prince is serious about walking the walk of the common folk, she’s only too happy to oblige as his pretend girlfriend. Through an ice storm, a road trip, kitchen duty, and a Texas pig race, Alex captures the hearts of the locals as well as Ms. O’Connor’s.
What starts out as a deal Katie can’t refuse becomes the acting role of a lifetime… letting Prince Alexander go without a fight.
A delightfully funny retelling of The Prince and The Pauper that romance readers of all ages will enjoy. On a two-week 1,500-mile road trip, Katie and Alex discover the end of the road might just be the beginning of their ‘Happy Ever After’ together.

Dating the Prince is cute, sweet and fun, light-hearted read. Featuring a hard-working leading female with great personality, shows us that we have to work hard in order to achieve our dreams!
Katie wants to become a Hollywood star, and does everything she can in order to succeed; works a waitress job to pay the bills and audition whenever she has the chance. Alex is a soon-to-be King. While preparing for his role, he visits foreign countries. Fulfilling his purpose is important for him but he still wants a life outside all of this. Katie is his chance in that life. While being his guide, he gives him a new family and a new secret life. Alex is a regular down-to-earth kind of guy. Even though he’s going to become a King, he wants a simple life. Katie can give him that and even though that their relationship starts out fake becomes so much more!
This was a really good light read, suitable for an easy afternoon reading!
