The Little Barmaid is a sweet story that Taylor brings to life with Derek and Ariel. I am really enjoying these stories by Taylor. In this one, we have the wicked Ursula that takes horrible advantage of Ariel takes her voice and makes sure that no one can help her.
Derek is the knight and shining armor and the king of making movies and theater. When his co-star Ursula won’t leave him alone and starts to blackmail him while he is falling for Ariel things get real really fast for everyone involved.
The Little Barmaid is another great story to go along with the other Princes of Hollywood.

This Little Mermaid retelling was clever. I love how the author gives the fairytales a Hollywood remake. It featured everything Hollywood is known for: secrets, rumors, paparazzi, lies, deceit. The Prince family seems to be made up of un-Hollywood like types, and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with for the next Prince brother.
HIS LITTLE BARMAID by Taylor Holloway is the story of Ariel and Derek.
Ariel wants to break into Hollywood but is working at a karaoke bar. When she is offered a voice over part for Ursula a actress, who wants to lip-sync to Ariel’s voice. This could be a break she needs to get ahead but it might not be either. Then Ariel meets …or runs into Derek a very famous/popular actor who Ariel has been crushing on. Of course he is attracted to her but things don’t go to easy for them.
Enjoyed their story.

Ms. Halloway has again entertained us with her twist on a fairy tale.and another. Derek Prince is another of the Hollywood Prince royalty. Ariel works at her uncles karaoke bar but dreams of making it big in Hollywood. She unfortunately makes a deal with Derek’s co-star, Ursula, to use her voice but agrees to never disclose she is the one singing. This sets up Ursula blackmailing both Derek and Ariel. I loved the east and fast flow of the story and kept me turning the page.
I received a free copy of this book for an honest review and look forward to see who the next Prince gets a story. Can’t wait!
This is the third book in the Princes of Hollywood series that I have read, and I must say it is my favorite so far. I found myself thinking of it all the time and looking for opportunities to read. The intrigue just kept me going and going, turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. I enjoyed every bit of it and loved the ending.
I know very little about LA and the Hollywood scene, but I found all the details about what goes on in a movie production to be very believable. I have heard about the bullying that goes on behind the scenes, but this story showed how real that can be.
I just love to read books in a series and how the characters you meet in one book pop up in others. That being said, any of the books in this series could be read as a standalone. I am already looking forward to the next one.
Taylor Holloway is in my top ten favorite authors. She never disappoints me. Another fabulous book about one of those hot Prince brothers…Derek. There’s a new musical and Derek is starring in it with the mean witch Ursula. But Ariel is the one that catches is eye.Throughout the story their relationship is complicated.. This a sweet romantic story.

Hollywood Meets The Little Mermaid
Who doesn’t enjoy fairy-tales? Luckily we don’t have to give them up just because we grew up. Now we have the “adult” versions. This series by Ms. Holloway has fed both my inner child and inner vixen. This addition is “The Little Mermaid” meets Hollywood. That means we get the “usual” Hollywood vices…blackmail, backstabbing, pushy family and mobs of fans. Will this Prince get his pearl?

Hollywood shenanigans and lies
4.5
Good romantic story, very well written, sometimes hot, but it is mainly the melodramatic twists and the manipulations around the characters that guide the romance.
Derek, an actor whom we have already met in previous episodes as Tommy’s twin, seeks by all means to conquer Ariel, a waitress with singer talents. However, she has just been secretly hired to dub the voice of his partner Ursula, in the movie they are filming together. Derek does not support Ursula, but Ursula has the talent to blackmail everyone to get what she wants. She manipulates both Derek and Ariel, which makes the relationship of the latter two very difficult to maintain.

If you love The Little Mermaid and Hollywood romance stories, this is the perfect combination. Derek and Ariel’s story is amazing, full of angst and emotions. An A-list actor meets a new actress that is trying to find her way in Hollywood. It was fun to read and found this retelling quite enjoyable. Looking forward for more from the author.
I absolutely loved this retelling of The Little Mermaid. Holloway did a fantastic job keeping to the story but also making it completely her own. I love Derek and Ariel. I definitely recommend this book and the others in the Princes of Hollywood series.
His Little Barmaid was a fun retelling of The Little Mermaid. Ariel is trying to get her big Hollywood break while working at her uncle’s karaoke bar. Derek is a Hollywood leading man who is triple threat and is working on a big Hollywood musical. When Ariel makes a deal with Derek’s leading lady in the musical, Ursula, in order for Ariel to get her big break, trouble ensues.
Derek and Ariel are both very likeable characters and I found myself rooting for them to overcome all the odds against them. There is blackmail galore. Ursula is like her namesake and I couldn’t wait for her deviousness to be revealed.
The author did a great job retelling The Little Mermaid while putting her own spin on it. It was a fun, easy read with plenty of romance. There’s enough angst in the book to give it depth and Derek and Ariel are a match made “under the sea.”
I really enjoyed reading this story. I love musical theater, and this book plays right into that. It’s Little Mermaid meets Singing in the Rain. Fun and witty, with enough angst to keep everyone happy.
