Publisher's summary

Media consultant Veronica St. John has been hired to teach a rugged Navy SEAL to impersonate a European prince who's been targeted by terrorists. But one conversation and Veronica knows there's no way she can turn streetwise New Yorker Joe Catalanotto into nobility. Joe, on the other hand, is confident he's got what it takes. Two days isn't a lot of time to get the job done...but it's enough time to fall in love.

Critic reviews

“Ms. Brockmann is a one-of-a-kind storyteller!” ( Romantic Times)

WOW

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

Been there, done that. I am just foolish enough to believe that if I enjoyed it, so would everyone else.

What did you like best about this story?

Can't pinpoint any one thing. With the possible exception of the way she presents the military hero. Because they are

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

To answer this question, I would have had to read this book, and I didn't. But, I will say I enjoyed her reading of it.

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

Yes, when Joe fooled them all.

A delightful romance

If you could sum up Prince Joe in three words, what would they be?

This book is a charming fantasy and the fact that it doesn't have an ounce of verisimilitude doesn't detract from its appeal.

What did you like best about this story?

That the hero and the heroine wind up at the end reunited and eager to get married "for ever after".

Which character – as performed by Ashley Adlon – was your favorite?

I thought Ashley Adlon did a good job performing all the characters in the story.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Fairy tales come true.

Any additional comments?

Since I had so much fun listening to Prince Joe, I am sure that I will listen soon to another book by Suzanne Brockmann.

Decent Start to the series!

#1 Rule for male readers when reading military romance novels is to try to get the terminology and basic details correct.

Example - dropping 100 pound bombs. Most are 500 or 1500 pounds. There were several in the first couple of chapters but after that, the book picked up.

#2 Rule for male readers - the constant head communication, some lasting several minutes yet the elapsed time is only a second or two, gets overwhelming. I know that many female readers live it but I cannot understand why (which is OK as I can just skip forward 10-20 seconds at a time).

I did enjoy the story and am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

One of my favorites

This is one of my favorite books. I have read it 4 times & finally purchased the audio. Suzanne Brockmann’s Seal Team series is fantastic.

Out standing series

Everyone of the books in this series is well written. Has great story lines, and very well done.

Ms. Brockmann is a Secret Favorite

I continually forget to check out Suzanne Brockmann but when I do she is SO ON POINT! I love her simple sometimes edgy writing that paints a vivid picture! She not brash but sassy in getting her readers to go along for the "reader ride". I enjoy that. I would love a Prince Joe and the way Ms. Brockmann writes this wonderful book, she can make you feel like you get one.

Very good suspense and romance

This book has wonderful characters and great suspense with a romance that was hard won. The narration is very good! Very enjoyable.

Pretty good read.

I thought this book had a good plot and developed the characters well. What I couldn't believe, is that for such intelligent people, they made the dumbest conclusions. It's a bits racy in sections, but overall I liked the book. It is definitely worth reading or listening to.

PRINCE WHO!!!

Would you listen to Prince Joe again? Why?

Yes, I would listen to Prince Joe again because it was very entertaining with a brief touch on the Seals

What was one of the most memorable moments of Prince Joe?

When Joe came into the bridge of the captured ship aand masqueraded as the prince.

What aspect of Ashley Adlon’s performance would you have changed?

Overall, not much

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No real exteme reaction and it was entertaining

Prince Joe

Who doesn’t love a story about a man in a uniform! Great audiobook. You will love it. Just enough romance without being trashy.
