Pursued by the crown prince who wishes to save her, by an English magistrate who wants to imprison her, and by revolutionaries who plan to murder her, Princess Clarice flees to Scotland where she attracts the attention of a most powerful and dangerous man. Justice is Robert MacKenzie's only desire, but the moment he sees Clarice riding into town he is overcome with emotions that have been buried for far too long. Feeling he must have her at any cost, he invites her to stay with him at his manor house and won't take no for an answer.

Soon Robert knows all of Clarice's secrets and he uses this knowledge to blackmail her into giving her unwilling aid to his own perilous plan. Caught between her need to protect her sister and the man who mixes dark emotions with passionate kisses, Clarice plunges into Robert's world.

Review of 'Some Enchanted Evening (Lost Princesses, Book 1)' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

The first book in a trilogy. Fairly enjoyable; I might read the others.

Clarice is a princess without a country. She is exile with her little sister, hiding from those intent on taking her country and removing her grandmother from power. She is the second sister of three, and travels around peddling beauty products to young ladies throughout the UK. Undercover (so to speak), she calls herself a princess but doesn't say where she is from, which seems strange to me, but I will let it go. Classic historical romance hero Robert not only ferrets out who she really is, but also falls madly, deeply in love with her. Nothing new with the storyline from other novels of the type, but I did find it an amusing way to pass the afternoon.

What saved it for me was the last chapter and the epilogue. It took it from "meh" to …
