Scoring the Princess
I liked the premise of the story but felt like the characters were flat. Natalie’s only characteristic is being a mom and Jaxon’s only trait is hockey. Natalie clearly really needs some therapy after dealing with her (rather cliche) villainous ex husband. I mean what almost-King of a random country gives up full custody of his kids without a fight? Bad guy or not, the storyline of this evil ex had soooo much potential for drama but just didn’t deliver. Even the obstacles thrown in the way to create some drama fell flat. The only redeeming quality was that Jaxon was a good dad to the kids.

A quick paced thriller of a book. McFadden does a great job of story building and feeding the reader crumbs of the mystery until BAM a twist and BOOM a turn. And suddenly everything knits together into a beautiful, twisted work of art.
