A struggling antiques collector finds herself falling in love with a millionaire playboy; but can she ever be a part of his world? Meet the Naughty Princess Club, a series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that brings readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity–and romance–that three women fall into once they decide to strut their stuff and bring on their own happily ever after. While … ever after.
While her friends have broken free of their insecurities, Ariel Waters is struggling to come out of her shell. Her ex-husband took away her voice and her self-confidence, and Ariel is drowning under a sea of debt to afford the alimony she has to pay him. She refuses to ever fall for a man’s charms again, and is determined to make her own way.
When her house and her beloved antiques are taken by the bank after too many missed payments, Ariel finds herself adrift until the infuriatingly charming Eric Sailor comes to her rescue. Although she can’t stand the millionaire playboy, Eric’s kindness and unconditional support reveal hidden depths and a love that Ariel never imagined she could find.
But there are outside influences who will stop at nothing to keep them apart; can Ariel and Eric weather the storm and find a way to be together in Kiss the Girl?

I am new to Tara Sivec and I honestly don’t know why. This was such an entertaining read! It was a laugh out loud funny romantic comedy with plenty of good story line and hot sexy times. I mean seriously, that lap dance was hot, hot, hot!! Love this real world take on the fairy tale! Eric and Ariel’s back and forth is just hysterical and their chemistry is crazy hot even if at first it seems Ariel would never consider Eric to be anything more than an annoyance. But he works his charm and his way under her skin and into her heart in the most unsuspecting sweetest ways. I love the friendship between Ariel, Belle and Cindy and definitely need to read their stories now as well.
Thank you to Netgalley for this ARC!
Warning you all – do not read any part of this book in a place where you cannot freely laugh, giggle, snort, cheer, shed a few tears, and swoon! These emotions will catch you off guard, and unexpectedly, so not part of this book is safe, trust me
Ariel is loud, brash, upfront, forthright, and determined to make it on her own. She projects confidence, authourity, and an overabundance of strength and determination. These are all the things Ariel wants to be, and her sarcasm helps her achieve them. They also are a front, and she is clearly faking it until she can make it. She will achieve these items on her own, no man, no matter how good he smells, or the goosebumps she breaks into around him, will give her these things
Eric fell for Ariel, in all her glory, the moment he met her. There isn’t anyone else for him, and when he has an opportunity to make her his, he doesn’t hesitate. He doesn’t want to give Ariel anything, he wants to be by her side while he achieves her goals and becomes her own woman. A few roadblocks, mostly set be Ariel, are in his way, but nothing is going to stop him from getting his princess
There is a lot of yelling and name calling in this book, but once you get to the why’s, it becomes endearing, and softer, sweeter. The epilogue brings this perfectly together, with all our Princess’ getting their happily ever afters, just what they need, different for them each. At the core, as always, the three strong woman who were down, but not out, and found their strength and independence in each other. Now, when Anastasia grows up…….
Kiss the Girl (The Naughty Princess Club, #3) by Tara Sivec This is third and final book in THE NAUGHTY PRINCESS CLUB series. Thanks to #NetGalley for allowing me to preview this book. Ariel Waters has a louse of an ex who she is paying alimony to who also has used verbal and mental abuse to put her down. She has lost her antique store and more because of him. Eric Sailor is a millionaire playboy who comes to her rescue… There are so many feelings… laughter, tears, romance, angst, close friends and very hot steamy sex. We get to reconnect with Cindy and PJ, Belle and Vincent and Belle’s daughter which is fun and lets not forget Derrick.. All this and some great HEA’s.
4 1/2 stars. A fantastic ending to a truly humorous series. Eric was so amazing for Ariel. He knew exactly what she needed and was smart enough to deliver it without her even knowing what he was doing. His knowledge of how Ariel’s mind works was so instr mental in helping her find her confidence. And boy did she let it fly when she had to! They are such an amazingly funny couple. The only reason this isn’t 5 stars is because there was a lot of shouting from Ariel. I get she is bada$$ and speaks her mind most of the time, but it was bordering on harda$$ in places. However, the humor and love story was totally worth it!
This book was wonderful and I enjoyed the story. I look forward to reading the other two books in this series. I definitely recommend this book, this series, and this author.
