Publisher's summary

The first book in the Cowboy Fairytales series.

A princess on the run finds sanctuary where she least expects it....

After nearly dying in an assassination attempt, Princess Alessandra of Glorvaird escapes to a place no one would ever think to look for her: small town Oklahoma and a ranch staffed by a herd of wooly, uncouth cowboys. One cowboy in particular gets under her skin, until she sees his softer side. She knows this interlude can't last forever, but that doesn't stop her from wishing it might.

Former Navy SEAL Gideon Hale might've rescued the princess from freezing to death, but the soldier doesn't trust easily - or at all - especially when his gut tells him Alessandra is keeping secrets. But as Alessandra begins to fit into his life, he discovers another side to the princess - one that he can't help but like.

When Alessandra's enemies close in, Gideon must fight to save the woman who has become so much more than a princess.

Once Upon a Cowboy is a contemporary western retelling of the Snow White fairytale and is the first book in the Cowboy Fairytales series.

Fun Princess Story

What did you love best about Once Upon a Cowboy?

Don't we all wish we were a princess sometimes? Fun story about what happens if a princess is caught in America without a security guard. I would head west too!

What about Lara Asmundson’s performance did you like?

Lara's performance was excellent. The reading flowed well and did not detract from the story line at all. I am excited to read more in this series.

Any additional comments?

Once Upon A Cowboy was a sweet romance that I just loved! Princess Alessandra escapes an assassination attempt and ends up stowing away in the back of a pickup truck. When she is discovered by Gideon and his brother, she is taken back to their ranch for protection. Gideon expects that Alessandra will have trouble fitting in with their simple lifestyle and is surprised that she is not what she seems. A poisoning that almost kills her make him realize that he loves her and needs her in his life, regardless of their obstacles. This was a short listen but very enjoyable and the narration was well done. I would recommend Once Upon A Cowboy.

I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator. This review is my honest opinion.

Sweet Story!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I definitely would suggest this book. It is an original story featuring a princess on the run and a cowboy. The story has suspense and a sweet love story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Allie (Princess Alesandra) since she was so caring. She may have been a royal princess and beautiful on the outside as she was on the inside. She also had the inquisitive nature to understand the man and not the position.

What does Lara Asmundson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Lara Asmundson is a very talented narrator. I really liked her performance and would definitely look for more books that she is part of. This book is part of a series, yet it is a standalone listen.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I liked it when Gideon discovered Allie in the back of his truck hiding. He didn't know her, but still wanted to protect her.

When the Princess get her... cowboy?

This story is just delightful.

It has all the markers of a fairy tale set within a modern setting. The princess does need help but she's hardly what you'd call a typical princess. And who is going to rescue her, well a cowboy of course, the princes in this story don't have the skills required.

This is a sweet and funny romance where the princess cooks and cleans.

Good narration, a little faster than I'm used too but not too fast. The character voices were well done and then whole narration flowed smoothly.

Note: This book was provided free by the author/narrator/publisher in exchange for an unbiased review.

GREAT!!!!

This audiobook was given to me for a free unbiased review. This was great. I loved the modern day western version of snow white. Really likes how it was a clean romance. perfect length.

Cowboys and Princesses? Who da thought?

Sweet almost comical tale of "Bear" Gideon and Princess "Allie"! A wonderful blend of tough and soft, dirty and pristine, cowboy and princess! I can't wait to listen to the next book!

Gideon & Alessandra

What three words best describe Lara Asmundson’s voice?

Awkward as a man
