A Royal Baby on the Way: Royally Wed

Back cover reads: The Would-Be Queen...Mother All-pomp-no-play Princess Alexandra Wyndham got a royal wake-up call when a letter, alleging the rightful crown prince was alive, arrived at the palace, compelling her to travel to the ranch of the most majestic man she'd ever encountered...to find the brother she'd never known. Cowboy Mitch Colton was tight-lipped when it came to the whereabouts of his elusive stepbrother-the suspected long-lost heir!-though he rather grudgingly opened his home to Alexandra. Then very passionately opened his arms and his heart. But would thier romance survive their abiding difference...and the revelation of a royal baby on the way?

Alexandra is a Princess on a mission. It has come to her attention that her brother whom her family thought was dead really isnt. She and her sisters deside they need to go to America and investigate. Alexandra goes to the ranch of John Colton whom Alex and her sisters think is their brother and meets John's brother Mitch who tells her John isnt there. While she is waiting for John to show up she stays with Mitch and at first Mitch does not like her, but slowly there is an attraction that begins an affair. They wind up engaged after Alex finds out that she is going to have a baby.

The series begins when Princess Alexandra of Wynborough learns that there's a possibility that her brother, who was kidnapped & supposedly died in America when he was a baby, may still be alive. Alex hotfoots it to Mitch's ranch, hoping that his stepbrother could be the missing royal heir. Instead, she finds love & laughter in this most unprincessly setting.While the premise of the series is rather flimsy, Ms. Mallery does put out a very light & engaging read. Don't miss the rest of the Wynborough series (in order): Undercover Princess, The Princess' White Knight, The Pregnant Princess & Man Mercenary Monarch.

I love reading books by Susan Mallery. This one is a great start to the Royally Wed series. Alex and Mitch are wonderful characters who try very hard to fight their attraction for eachother. They are complete opposites. She's a princess, and he's a cowboy. You can't get any more different than that.
