Publisher Description
Meet the Naughty Princess Club: a brand new series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that introduces readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that ensue when three women start a new business to make it rain.
Once upon a time Cynthia was the perfect housewife. Between being the President of the PTA and keeping her home spotless without a hair (or her pearls) out of place, her life was a dream come true. Her husband was once her knight in shining armor, but now he’s run off with all their money…and the babysitter.
Dressed as a princess at the annual Halloween block party on Fairytale Lane, she meets two other “princesses” also facing money troubles: antique store owner Ariel and librarian Isabelle. When the women are invited to wear their costumes to a party where they’re mistaken for strippers, Cindy, Ariel, and Belle realize that a career change could be the best way to make their money problems go bippity-boppity-boo.
But can structured Cindy approach a stripper pole without sanitizing wipes? And could the blue-eyed anti-prince that has been crossing her path become Cindy’s happily ever after? At the Stroke of Midnight is a hilarious, empowering story where princesses can save themselves while slaying in stilettos.
Customer Reviews
A light-hearted hilarious romance.
This is a romantic comedy that is a play on the Cinderella story. A rich housewife (who formerly had a stepmother and 2 stepsisters) is left by her husband when he takes off with their babysitter and all their money. So Cindy and her 2 new friends (Ariel & Belle ... guess who's stories they take after?) get mistaken as strippers. Realizing that this could be a way for them to make money, they start up a Princess stripping business for home parties.
This is a light-hearted, hilarious romance. The situations Cindy puts herself into are so cute because she was such a snob in her former life with her husband and then she pretty much becomes the opposite! And PJ really is prince with the way that he treats her. A great start to this series about the wayward princesses.
