Royal Rogue: A Steamy Royal Romance (Thorne Monarchs Book 3) Kindle Edition

Dear Jane,
You’re a princess. I’m a thief. This isn’t a Disney movie. We never had a chance in hell of a happy ending. But I still wish I could have given you one.

When we met, I had you pegged as a snob. All tiaras, polo matches and private jets. But you turned out to be the exact opposite. I fell for you the day we met.

I lied to you about a lot of things. I don’t expect or deserve your forgiveness. You’re too good for me. But I was always honest about my feelings for you.

I hope you’ll find true happiness one day.

I’m sorry—

Charlie

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your average Rom Com
Reviewed in Australia on 12 July 2018
This was my first read from this author and I will be immediately grabbing the other two books in the series. I absolutely LOVED it!!! You know when you go into a book with an expectation of what the story will be - we'll I was expecting a light/fun Rom Com type read - I was wrong.

It definitely had plenty of laughs but there was just so much more. I didn't expect the level of emotions, I didn't expect to get teary and I definitely didn't expect the amazing off the charts chemistry between the two lead characters. It jumped off the page. Wowsa!!!

Charlie and Jane are two of the most genuine/believable characters I have read this year. Such a fantastic story - definitely recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Love Story
Reviewed in Australia on 5 October 2018
Absolutely loved Jane & Chatlie's characters. It made me want my own happily ever after. Every little girl wanrs her prince charming and Chatlie was just this without even knowing it. And Princess Jane is amazing. Loved the family Sunday's too. Had me laughing at their frivolities. Definitely worth the read. I loved the first two books but I honestly think this storyline was by far the best one in the series, for me anyways.

Just when I thought Rob was going to be my favorite Thorne sibling...….along comes Jane. I just love her. She completely surprised me from the get-go. She was a little vixen, a little naughty - and I liked it! A lot. She had gone through a lot in the past few years, and the public persona everyone had come to know wasn't who she really was. It wasn't until she met Charlie that she was able to truly find herself and live completely in the moment.

And Charlie......gah, this man is so swoony, that my heart melted more times than I could count. The dates, the thoughtfulness - seriously, he was too good to be true (as Jane thought many times). But my heart broke for Charlie knowing that he showed Jane his true self; yet he knew that it was going to eventually all fall apart.

These two together were absolutely magical and I loved every minute of their story. Royal Rogue was such a fantastic installment to the Flings with Kings series - definitely my favorite so far. I loved getting to know Jack a little bit too and I can't wait to see what she has in store for him!

I'm happy Jane is getting her story, she needs a "good" man not another douchebag. I hate when both are gonna get hurt. Kitchen porn was new to me too. The Princess Bride movie is one of my favorite so is playing monopoly

Princess Jane is just sorting through her life after a messy divorce and some subsequent wildness, slowly fitting the pieces of her life back together and discovering who the real Jane is. Charlie has an unavoidable career of conning rich, spoiled, badly behaving women out of money and possessions. He justifies it by believing they deserve to be separated from their wealth, so he doesn’t think twice about a con to steal a Warhol painting from Jane, having read about her post-divorce bad behavior in the tabloids. This last con will pay his debt and finally free him and his brother, but when he finds Jane is nothing like he assumed, the con and his freedom are at risk.

Having read Jane's brothers’ books, I was eager to read an early copy of this book. If it seems like an improbable premise, a common thief and an heir to the throne falling in love, it is, unless you consider the Thorne siblings, and even the queen herself. For all their royalty, they’re still family. Boisterous and interfering but close knit and full of love. A family that anyone would envy and long to be part of, as Charlie soon finds out.

There was a lot to love about this book, which I’ll get to. My one criticism is with the sexy times. I know. I’m as shocked as you that I have an issue with it! Truthfully, it verged beyond romance and into erotica, and came uncomfortably close to porn, because many times it felt like the scenes were just there to add more sex. I’m hoping they were meant to show a growing connection and deeper emotion between Jane and Charlie, but for me they fell short. In fact, it wasn’t until the big crisis that I finally felt the deep, authentic, abiding love they had for each other.

On the plus side, we get this big, loveable bunch of royal Thornes who are endlessly endearing and delightfully entertaining. Who doesn’t love members of a royal family who cheat at Monopoly? Then there are the Princess Bride references which are as clever as they are heartwarming and take this book up a notch. Jane is fantastic – strong, good hearted and compassionate - and I loved watching her discover who she is and see her regain confidence and take a chance on love. But Charlie is the one I love the most, a guy with a huge heart who does the wrong things for the right reasons, trying his best to help his brother and get them out of an impossible situation. His inner conflict was real and I felt his turmoil right along with him as he struggled with himself. But the best part of the book was how the Thorne family interacted with Charlie. For a guy who never had much of a family, it was a strange, beautiful, awe-inspiring experience. I’ve definitely fallen for this royal family and recommend all of the royals in the Flings With Kings series.

This is a story of the princess and the con man.
Princess Jane, it's just trying to find herself after being in a relationship that had caused her to loose herself.
Charlie, is a con man who is trying to pay off his brothers debt, to a man who had been thrown out of the royal family, due to his father's affair to a commoner.
The queen, has vetted men she deems would be a good match for Jane.
The only one who catches her eye is Charlie, but when he comes off as just another pompous billionaire, she walks away. When he tries again, he decided to be himself and the sparks fly.
They find that they make each other a better person and Charlie decides he can't go thru with the con.
I love The Princess Bride references.
I also, love the ending. It is an amazing story and series from an amazing writer.
I can't wait for another book from her.
