Stealing Kisses With a King by Sylvie StewartMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from the author and Wildfire Marketing Solutions. This is my honest review.
Malcolm and Alice were such an odd bunch that you can help but root for them! This is the first book I've read by this author, and while these characters are new to their own book, this is part of a series. I'm not sure if reading the previous two books about Malcolm's brother, Leo, would have cleared up some confusing bits in the novel, but I definitely don't think you have to read the other two to understand this novel.
I respect Alice hardcore. She knew her personal feelings were going to become an issue one way or another in the future working for Malcolm, so she removed herself from the problem should would encounter. And that takes a lot of self-will because not many people would do that. Then again, Malcolm always gets what he wants and with Alice on the brain to come back and fix all of his problems, she had no chance when it came down to it.
Honestly, Malcolm at the beginning of the book really annoyed me because he was self-centered and selfish. He never really thought about too much more than himself, so it rubbed me the wrong way. It was nice to see him finally grow up, and that he did it on his own too, that Alice didn't change him. So in the end it was good, but I struggled just a little bit at the beginning.
Overall, I thought this book was cute and it definitely showed character development for BOTH of the characters, so that was a plus! I'm glad I got a chance to read this book and I may look into reading more by Sylvie Stewart.
