Princess and the Player, an all-new sexy, surprise pregnancy sports romance featuring a meet cute at a masquerade ball from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills, is out now!
A masquerade ball brings together an NFL player and a penniless princess in this smart and sexy romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills.
Levelheaded Francesca Lane never thought she’d miss her own wedding. But when her fiancé betrays her, she puts on her wedding dress and ditches the altar for a masquerade ball—at an exclusive lifestyle club.
There, she meets unknown-to-her NFL star Tuck Avery, dressed as a prince and hiding behind a mask—he’s there to celebrate his birthday. For one night, Francesca and Tuck indulge in a wickedly incognito affair. No names. No strings. And the masks don’t come off.
Unfortunately, Francesca realizes quickly that her masked prince is the wealthy jock who lives in the penthouse of her apartment building. His hobbies include parties and supermodels—or so the tabloids say. Getting tangled up with a shallow jerk is the last thing Francesca needs right now, so she vows to keep Tuck from recognizing her (not that she’s his type anyway).
But fate has a teeny-tiny trick up her sleeve…a plus sign on a pregnancy test. Can this tormented prince accept love, or will he push his princess away forever?
Review:4.5 StarsAnother winner by Ilsa Madden-Mills! I could not put this one down. The characters pulled me right into this one. It's Tuck's turn for his story to be told. With his backstory and childhood he deserves this misfit put together awesome family. Sometimes family isn't blood, but the friends you make along the way. Francesca hasn't had it easy either, but she has some really awesome people in her corner. A masquerade party she goes to changes her life in more ways than one. I really hope Jasper gets his story told because the guy is a hoot! There is plenty of heart and emotions along with steam, but the humor was one of my favorite parts. I loved that Francesca has two great ride or die besties. Her elderly neighbor also looks out for her. His grumpy persona covers up a huge heart. There are some bumps in the road because what these two have gone through opening up and trust are hard to come by. The epilogue was the perfect touch and made me so very happy! This is a must read!!
