Review: Paper Princess by Erin Watt

Title: Paper Princess
Author: Erin Watt
Series: Royals #1
Purchase: Amazon

Summary (from Goodreads):
From strip clubs and truck stops to southern coast mansions and prep schools, one girl tries to stay true to herself.

These Royals will ruin you…

Ella Harper is a survivor—a pragmatic optimist. She’s spent her whole life moving from town to town with her flighty mother, struggling to make ends meet and believing that someday she’ll climb out of the gutter. After her mother’s death, Ella is truly alone. 

Until Callum Royal appears, plucking Ella out of poverty and tossing her into his posh mansion among his five sons who all hate her. Each Royal boy is more magnetic than the last, but none as captivating as Reed Royal, the boy who is determined to send her back to the slums she came from.

Reed doesn’t want her. He says she doesn’t belong with the Royals.

He might be right.

Wealth. Excess. Deception. It’s like nothing Ella has ever experienced, and if she’s going to survive her time in the Royal palace, she’ll need to learn to issue her own Royal decrees. 

Review:
So I've been on a quest to read all the authors of ApollyCon 2018 prior to the event. Call me a well-rounded event planner, but I wanna know who I'm working with.

And also, I've seen fans freaking out each one of the authors on our lineup are attending, and I love to freak out and swoon, too.

I've read Elle Kennedy before (I'm absolutely in love with everything of hers I've read), and prior to this I read a book by Jen Frederick and loved it (look for that review later), so I decided to give them a try as a duo, Erin Watt. And holy crap balls rolling down drama mountain ... I'm in love. I binged the entire trilogy in 28 hours. I bought the audio versions so I could listen in the car and while I put my makeup on. I literally breathed this series. But let's start with book 1: PAPER PRINCESS.

Let's start with my girl Ella, who is seriously a champ. This girl has been through hell - she never knew her father, her mom died when she was 15, and terrified of being put into foster care, Ella brilliantly and doggedly holds down 3 jobs (including being a stripper) to support herself. She forges her mom's signature for school documents, determined to get herself through school and college so she can carve out an existence beyond straight up survival.

Enter the Royals: Callum Royal (dad of the Royal clan) comes and pulls Ella from her life of poverty and puts her in a palace where she has money and clothes and a massive bed and the best education money can buy ... Seems too good to be true, right?

Right.

So Ella, knowing nothing in the world is free, is (rightfully) skeptical. She doesn't enter the Royal world willingly. She's quite literally dragged and thrust into it, much to the fury of Callum Royal's 5 (yes, FIVE, totally hot, swoony, assholey) sons. Reed, second oldest, is the ring leader and makes it his mission to make Ella's life hell until she packs her bags and runs.

Cue the most passionate, volatile, combustible love/hate relationship ever.

There are parts I must admit were hard to swallow, even after later learning the guys' motives. They crossed lines in their quest to bully and humiliate Ella that made me cringe. These boys had to work for Ella's (and my) favor.

This book is drama. It's technically pitched as YA, but it's definitely upper YA/NA. Especially in the romance dept. It's seriously angsty and is, often, over the top. But the magic of Erin Watt cannot be denied. This series is as golden as that freaking gorgeous crown on the cover. I can't wait to get to my thoughts in the next week or so about the other books in the series.


Do not miss this one!

  4. Hi viewers online, I'm Alfonso Vázquez from Mexico. I'm here to share my testimony about how i was helped to get my wife back. I was a cheat and my wife caught me several times. I tried fixing myself and each time i ended up cheating over and over again. I guess i didn't realise what she meant to me until she had left me alone. I began to find a way to get her back but nothing seems to work out perfectly till i came across an article about Lord Zakuza who helped a lot of people globally to get their relationships back. I made contact with him and he assured me that my wife will come back to me within 48 hours with his powerful magics and i paid 410 Euros for the materials needed for the work. Surprisingly, my wife came back home after 2 days saying that she still loves me and i swore never to cheat on her anymore. All thanks to Lord Zakuza. You can have a chat with him on his WhatsApp number via +1 740-573-9483.

  7. I am here to give thanks to Dr Ajayi for saving my relationship. I have been dating a guy for four years now, he's 39 and am 32. My boyfriend has always been so caring and loving, he has introduced me to all his family members and friends as his fiance after we got engaged a few months ago. We had already fixed our wedding date until my dreams turned to a nightmare all of a sudden. Just few weeks to our wedding my fiance changed, to the extent he said he wasn't interested in the relationship anymore simply because he was tired of me, i knew this was as a result of his ex girlfriend who has been begging him to come back all this while but he said he wasn't going to fall for her trap, but when he said it was over i knew she was the cause. All night and day i cried my heart out begging fiance to come back because we had already fixed our wedding but he refused until i heard of Dr Ajayi the spell caster , i contacted him and he told me what to do, that he will cast some spells and my fiance will come back in 3 days after the spell. Few days later after the spell, as promised by Dr Ajayi my fiancee was at my place begging me on his knees to forgive him saying he was sorry and do not know what came over him...all thanks to Dr Ajayi for saving my relationship , we got married a few days ago. if you are in need of a spell caster for any kind of spell work, contact the powerful spiritual man Dr Ajayi on Viber / Whatsapp : +2347084887094 or Email: drajayi1990@gmail.com

  10. Testimony By Debra Tonny. How to get your ex back fast! I was hurt and heart broken when a very big problem occurred in my marriage seven months ago, between me and my husband . so terrible that he took the case to court for a divorce. he said that he never wanted to stay with me again, and that he didn't love me anymore. So he packed out of the house and made me and my children pass through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get him back, after much begging, but all to no avail. and he confirmed that he had made his decision, and he never wanted to see me again. So one evening, as I was coming back from work, I met an old friend of mine who asked my husband .So I explained everything to him, so he told me that the only way I can get my husband back is to visit a priest, because it has really worked for him too. So I never believed in spells, but I had no other choice, than to follow his advice. Then he gave me the Email address of the priest whom he visited. awesomespelltemple@gmail.com. So the next morning, I sent a letter to the address he gave to me, and the priest assured me that I will get my husband back the next day. What an amazing statement!! I never believed, so he spoke with me, and told me everything that I needed to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my husband who didn't call me for the past 7 months, gave me a call to inform me that he was coming back. So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day, with lots of love and joy, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day, our relationship was now stronger than how it was before, by the help of a priest. So, I will advise you out there if you have any problem contact DR.DAVID, i give you 100% guarantee that he will help you..

  16. My wish right now is that God should continue to bless Dr Emu for his good works towards the life of those people who are heart broken. My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it's been a while since my lover's attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn't need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what's-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with... Thank you Dr Emu.
