About this ebook

Nicole Steel built her empire on the "Modern Life" philosophy, authenticity, wellness, and complete transparency. But when a viral video exposes her most private secret and brands her a hypocrite, her career and her income face a total collapse.

Enter Prince Ryder Kristoff of Norden, a reckless adrenaline junkie who needs a PR miracle of his own. Trapped by his father’s ultimatum to marry a woman of "purity" or lose his inheritance, Ryder sees Nicole as his ticket to freedom. For Nicole, a dinner date with a prince is the ultimate PR coup to silence her critics.

The deal is simple: a marriage of convenience that allows Ryder to "retire" from royal duty and Nicole to secure her brand’s future. But as the picturesque towers of Norden and the salt air of the North Sea pull them closer, they discover a mutual passion for a brighter, greener future. When a restrictive royal contract threatens to censor Nicole’s voice, she must decide if being a princess is worth losing her identity, or if Ryder is the one truth she can’t afford to blog about.

Ratings and reviews

The Steel sisters are very close and while they were all determined to not get married one by one they have started to find their HEA. This is Nicole's chance for a perfect match and she is surprised by the Prince who is not as arrogant as she first thinks. Prince Ryder wants to escape from his family and duty but with Nicole by his side he finds that his family loves him and maybe he doesn't need to leave it all behind. The Avce matchmakers again make a perfect royal match.

Powerful Prince is the fifth book in the Steel family series and features Nicole Steel who is an influencer on social media. On a trip out to Las Vegas, she has a meeting with Prince Ryder of a small European country, where she is totally underwhelmed with this royal. Later, Ryder is informed that Nicole is his father's choice to marry. After a reboot of their first impressions, both Ryder and Nicole discover that they actually like each other. A marriage between them would advance Nicole's blog following and help Ryder distance himself from his royal duties. The book is written well and the storyline compact. I am not a big fan of insta-love, but overall the book is entertaining. Powerful Prince is what I call "fluff" - an entertaining, feel-good story without suspense or angst and of course, an HEA ending.

Large Ensemble Cast With Each Character Distinct And Unique - 5 Stars This was a lovely romantic read. The story was well written, ease to read and was original. Character development over the course of the story occurred for both the main male and main female characters. Again, as with other novels in this series, there was a large ensemble cast, with characters easily distinguished from one another. It was a delight to "see" again and catch up with characters from past novels in this series. I really enjoy how in overlapping characters from one story to the next in a series, adds another element of cohesiveness to the whole process. Good Stuff! I voluntarily received an advance review copy of this novel from the author and I am leaving an honest and unbiased review. I have no affiliation to this author.
