The Poisoned Pawn Duet, Part I, is everything you could want in a book and more. It kept me on the edge of my seat right up until the very last sentence. It is a easy read and hard to put down. In this book you will find one very strong and determined princess. Anna will not allow anyone or anything stand in her way, she will do everything she possibly can to protect the ones she loves. You will find mystery, lots of suspense and some romance. This book is perfectly written. It drove me insane that it leaves you hanging in suspense at the end. This book is continued. To find out what happens, you’ll have to read, Part II , “A Valiant Prince.”
I’m looking forward to finding out how this story ends.

Wow! A Fierce Princess BLEW ME AWAY and S.E. Rose is a New Author for me!! CAPTIVATED me from the Very Beginning and never a Dull moment page after page! It has all the feels and the banter between the siblings are fantastic plus keeps you on your toes! Such an Suspenseful Mysterious Adventure that keeps you guessing until the Very End But with a CLIFFHANGER- OMFG!!! CANNOT WAIT FOR THE CONCLUSION of This Duet of a Series!!
A MUST READ BOOK!!
If you’re looking for a book with a badass heroine, seriously steamy moments. Book 1 of a duet, and Book 1 is from Princess Susanna’s (Anna to her friends) perspective and ends on a cliffhanger. The characters are truly likable. This is a sort of insta-love story,and has a nice flow to it.. There is instant chemistry between our main character’s. That plays out later in the book. Great Job S.E. Ross!!! I would definitely recommend.
This is fantastic! Great characters and storyline. SE Rose never disappoints!
SE Rose hit a major win with this book. Princess Susannah, or Anna to her family, is definitely not your typical princess. Well she can be when she needs to be, but she yearns to be able to be free and do what she loves and wants, not what is expected of her. She is a genius hacker, but no ones know this about her. As she is searching for a lost family heirloom, she happens upon a huge bounty put on someone’s head. She finds out the guy is really a prince, but has no idea he is. She sets out to let him know and try to save his life. She first tells Logan about everything. She then realizes she is in over her head and needs to enlist more help so she tells her secret to her brothers. There is way more danger to all of them than any of them thought. During all of this, Logan and Anna explore their attraction to each other. This book has so much going for it: It’s about Royals, and what girl has not fantasized about being a princess? There is chemistry, love, suspense, intrigue, wonderful main characters and kick ass main characters. If I was a princess, I would want to be exactly like Princess Anna. This book does end in a cliff-hanger, and I am off to read book 2, as I can not wait to get to see what happens to everyone.
This was a fun opposite gender James Bond-like story. Anna has some super secret mad skills. There’s a hot guy with an unknown hidden identity and she has to keep him safe. There’s also hidden relationships, a playboy prince and the Bahamas!
This definitely piqued my interest from the start. What isn’t exciting about a rebellious princess?? Am I right? The suspense continues to build through to the end when we reach the epic cliffy.
Princess Susanna isn’t your typical princess. No, she has a hidden side that is nothing expected or accepted of a royal- especially not a princess.
She has a curiosity and intelligence about her that just puts her in a league of her own. And with that curiosity she gets herself trapped in a web where she and everyone she loves is now in danger. But see, she’s not just a smart rebel- she’s brave. And these events that start to unfold only shows those around her just how brave she truly is.
I was enthralled with this story the whole time. Susanna’s story is a new kind of “princess” story for the modern girls. Less fairytale and more badass.
I feel like I’mm the only one but if I’m going to be honest and I will,i didn’t like this book.
I feel like I read a novel for kids.
Anna is a princess.When she was a child her mother was killed in a car accident.That event left big impact on Anna.Growing up,she dedicated her life to finding her mother’s missing crown.But she is a princess and that means that she can’t just do whatever her heart desires.She is the only girl in her family,growing up with her father and two brothers she came to be a little bit boyish.She is more interested in boys stuff than princesses duties,which is fine.Anyway,because she couldn’t just point blank search for her mothers crown,she did it in secret.As it turns out Anna is a very good hacker,even excellent one.But her search for the crown leads her to something different.While on dark wed,she stumbles upon a plot to kill just a regular guy,but with a little bit of research it turns out that the regular guy is in fact prince Logan.A prince that know nothing about the fact that he is a prince.So she decides to go to Bahamas,the place were prince is,go on a cruise and tell him the truth.
Up until this point the book was fine to me but then things just went down.Anna’s plan to save Logan was just stupid.It took her way to much time to include someone who knows something about rescuing people from that kind of situations.On top of that,while being on the cruise she does everything except talk about important stuff.It took her five days to tell him the truth.And that moment wasn’t all that much spectacular.
I found Anna to be immature,insecure and childish.The book is told from her POV so i felt like Logan was complete stranger.
I think that my biggest problem was the writing.It felt like it was all over the place.It felt monotone,there was nothing exciting,I got bored pretty quickly.On top of that there were too many characters and I just couldn’t catch them all.
The three stars are only because of cover,that one I like.
A Fierce Princess isn’t about your everyday entitled, spoiled princess. Princess Susanna aka Anna is not only beautiful, but she is brilliant and fierce. Her spunk and tenacity are contagious. She is a superhero in her own right. She is on a mission to find the crown that her precious mother was wearing when she died. In doing so, she stumbles on more than she bargained for. She discovers a hit that has been placed on a fellow royal and now must save his life. A Fierce Princess is an adventure that takes us to the beautiful Bahamas and the mysterious world of royals. Be ready to have A Valiant Prince on standby because you will need to see what happens next in this sexy and dangerous page turner.
An interestingly different read from the norm. The h of this book is a royal princess, strong and ready to save the H. I really liked this book and the depth of the h, a romance read with a touch suspense. This does end with cliffhanger that concludes with book 2.
If you like a fierce woman and a story with great suspense, mystery and steamy scenes. You will love this. Princess Anna can be refined and regal. But she is a fierce hacker. They even say, one of the best. Of course she does this without her family especially her father the king knowing. She even helps put people behind bar by letting the police know when she finds something bad. Just by chance she stubbles across a hit on a person. She just has to help him, at least let him know about it. This is a great book but it ends with a cliffhanger. I need book 2.
I´ve always had a thing about royal romances. I´m honestly not the biggest fan. That has changed.
Susanna ´Anna´ is my type of heroine. She´s a bad*** and doesn´t take sh*t from anyone and that is seriously my type of girl. She´s not snotty or stuck up which is what you typically expect from princesses. She, in fact, is one of the world´s greatests hackers, and she´s about to turn spy…sort of.
When browsing the dark web in search for a lost family heirloom, she finds an assassination job for a very familiar name. She takes it upon herself to save him but she didn´t expect the sparks that flew upon meeting Logan Edvard Winters in person.
A Fierce Princess is told in Anna´s point of view and is full of suspense, mystery steam, and a whole lot of loveable secondary characters. You won´t be able to put it down…I couldn´t. S.E. if you are reading this…I need more books in this universe.
I highly recommend but warn that this is Part 1 of a duet so it does end in a major cliffhanger!
I freaking loved this book!!!! I think I read it within a few days, I couldn’t put it down!!!
Princess Susanna is a bad ass princess who has a secret, she is one of the best hackers and if trying to figure out what happened with her mother’s death. She happens to stumble on an assassin trying to take out this ‘random’ guy for a really big price. Once she starts digging she founds out he isn’t just a random guy but the heir to the throne, a prince! She decides to go with her brother who happens to be going to the same island and try and save this guy without complete telling him. This story is so freaking awesome and has so many twists and turns and steamy!!!! I couldn’t put this book down and highly recommend it!!!!! Will they survive the journey? Will she save her prince? You will have to read to find out!!
Wow. This is not your average damsel is distress but it so much more. Princess Anna is trying to get the crown of her mom who was killed. She has mad skills and a warrior attitude. Which kudos Ms. Rose! I loved her.
While researching she discovers that a long lost Prince , Logan , is at risk. She goes to help him and the adventures kept me glued to the story and page. This is the first part of a duet. I can’t wait for the second part.
This different writing than what I have read from this author but is so awesome. I received a copy of this book for an honest review. Get your hands on this book and get into the adventure
loved this book. It was def. not what I expected at all. I loved that it was a twist on a normal romance novel. This book is about a princess who lives a secret life and tries to save a man who is an heir to another throne who doesn’t know it. LOVE this book and highly recommend it.
5+ Stars
This is one of the best books I’ve read in 2019! I am positively stunned! Ahhhh! I need book two immediately!
Susanna is not a typical princess by any means. Yes, she can be polite and refined when she needs to be, but she’s also fierce and a brilliant hacker. I admire her bravery and her determination to live life on her own terms as much as possible.
Logan is strong and brave as well, much what you would expect of a prince…except that he doesn’t know he’s a prince! I honestly couldn’t find a single fault with him. He is positively swoon worthy.
The plot is angst ridden and action packed. I was spellbound throughout the book and found it difficult to put down. I’m still guessing at who M is and then second guessing myself.
I am anxiously awaiting book two; it can’t be published fast enough! I need to know that Susanna and Logan are alright. At least I really hope they are! SE Rose, you’re killing me with the suspense!
A really enjoyable read. I loved that it was a princess trying to save her prince. Can’t wait to read the next book.
Anna, a Princess who has a secret obsession with computer hacking, discovers that someone puts A bounty out of some man.
Anna find out that the man in Logan. She decides to go find Logan before the assassin does.
Logan has his own chartering business that Anna and her 2 older brothers hire for a cruise. While they are touring islands and fishing, Anna needs to find a way to tell Logan that, 1st he is a long lost prince and 2nd, that someone wants him dead.
Anna finally has the courage to tell Logan everything. Will she be able to save him.
3 & 1/2 SORRY
I struggle with this read towards the end because it had too much munadane details about the family time’s and she would go between this and then she’s a “small but fierce princess” after a while that reference got old quickly.
I am not one to give spoilers or details so I will just note that the ending while it being a cliffhanger it was my only reason for gaining the half a star because of the quick development of action with some tragedy. Thou I am sure this will hold a HEA I will read the conclusion for this duet if only hoping it will give a climax to this unfinished read.
Note for anyone reading this review while this book was not for me as I preffer a fast passed read this could be the perfect story for another.
A Fierce Princess is book 1 in The Poisoned Pawn duet. This book was absolutely amazing. From start to finish I was drawn in and could not put this down.
The story is told from Princess Savannah’s point of view and had such an original plot line and amazing characters.
Princess Susanna quickly became one of my absolute favorite heroines with her amazing hacking abilities and drive to solve the family mystery surrounding her mother’s missing crown. When she stumbles upon another mystery things become even more interesting and intense.
Full of mystery, suspense, drama and some serious chemistry between the characters this book truly has it all.
I can not wait to get my hands on book 2! By Alisa
