Summary: MaryJanice has done it again
Review: The Royal Treatment by MaryJanice Davidson is hysterical, you will not want to put it down. MaryJanice has created a world where Alaska is not part of the USA but a Royal Country.

Christina Krabbe is stranded in Alaska after she gets fired from her latest job. She meets "Al" who tells her to call his secretary if she needs help. Little does she know that she had just met King Alexander II. When Chris does look up Al, she realizes he wants her for his son Prince David.

Prince David has spent his time earning a doctorate in Marine Biology and caring for his beloved penguins. He wasn't expecting the whirlwind of Christina Krabbe.

This book will keep you laughing, the dialogue between the characters is a scream. David and Christina are perfect for each other and will melt any cold Alaskan night.

Can't wait to read more of Ms. Davidson's books.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Horribly written attempt at comedic romance
Review: This book is awful. Terrible. Excruiatingly badly written. Amateurish and poorly edited. Who is the author blackmailing at Brava? Surely no editor published this dreck except under duress. The characters are carictures, unrealistic and one dimensional and no attempt is made to give any sort of motivation for actions. The author mostly has her supposedly charming (but really obnoxious and crass) "heroine," if one could call her that, say and do outrageous things that the author has apparently fantasized about doing/saying. What's with the penguins? I don't know since the author never explained the prince's fascination with them (or Chris's dislike of them). The author starts subplots and then drops them suddenly to do a 180. One second the heroine has a black belt in karate and fearlessly beats up her ex-lover, an LAPD detective (who is there to stop the wedding, then isn't, then is, oh wait, now he isn't), then she's cowering behind her big strong man during an assasination attempt. There is no continuity or attempt at it. The author uses an annoying first person viewpoint, which gets more grating as the books drags on. I only kept reading to see how much worse this book could get. Unfortunately for me, the answer was much worse!I want my money back!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Totally Hillarious!
Review: This was the first book by Mary Janice Davidson that I have read, and I was not disappointed. It was so funnny. To make up an eniterly new history for Alaska is a little risky but she pulled it off "royally". Christina and David are an unconventional couple but they seem to work. The dialogue is hillarous and intelligently witty. I hope that Davidson doesn't stop with this one book I think the other charcters, such as Princess Alex could have equally reat stories of their own. I highly recommned this book and I mayself can not wait to read other books by Mary Janice Davidson.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: a wonderfully funny romance
Review: What if ...

What if the Russian never sold Alaska to the United States. What if Alaska gained its independence, and became a monarchy. What if the royal family is nuts, in an odd eccentric down-to-earth kind of way, and the king wants his heir to wed a brash, outspoken woman. What if she agrees.

King Alexander only wants what in his opinion is best for his son, and he has decided that Christina Krabbe, recently unemployed cruise chef, is it. Prince David could care less, and Christina doesn't quite know just what she has agreed to.

Until the king's in-laws enter the fray, and they have to work together to save the country, falling in love in the process.

What if ...

The Royal Treatment, MaryJanice Davidson's unique twist on rewriting history has all of the trademark humor and odd characters that readers are coming to love from this quirky author. Taking nothing serious, she creates a royal family the exact opposite of the 'serious, refined, never a hair out of place' aristocracy of today.

If sexy and playful, yet serious heroes & naughty, outspoken, and take charge heroines are your thing, then Ms Davidson deserves a treasured spot you're your auto buy list. With her oddball contemporaries, unpredictable paranormals, and sensual romantica novels, she offers a wide variety of fun and enjoyable romances, which totally breaks the 'bodice ripper' mold.
