The Frog Prince

A Romantic Comedy

By: Elle Lothlorien

Narrated by: Leah Frederick

It was his pheromones that did it. With one sniff, sex researcher Leigh Fromm recognizes that any offspring she might have with the mysterious stranger would have a better-than-average chance of surviving any number of impending pandemics. But when Leigh finds out that the handsome "someone" at her great aunt's wake is Prince Roman Habsburg von Lorraine of Austria, she suddenly doubts her instincts - not that she was intending to sleep with the guy. The royal house of Habsburg was once completely inbred, insanity and impotency among the highlights of their genetic pedigree. (The extreme "bulldog underbite" that plagued them wasn't called the Habsburg Jaw for nothing.)

It doesn't matter that his family hasn't sat on a throne (other than the ones in their Toilette) since 1918, or that Austria is now a parliamentary democracy. Their lives couldn't be more different: Roman is routinely mobbed by paparazzi in Europe. Leigh is regularly mocked for having the social skills of a potted plant. Even if she suddenly developed grace, charm and a pedigree that would withstand the scrutiny of the press and his family, what exactly is she supposed to do with this would-have-been king of Austria who is in self-imposed exile in Denver, Colorado?

A handsome prince, gut-busting laughs, love, dirty ballroom dancing, pathetic commoners, sex factoids, Vienna palaces, cursing in German, random hilarity, little to no frogs. See why tens of thousands of readers have fallen in love with this Amazon best seller! Because someday your prince will come...sort of.

Wonderful!

Would you listen to The Frog Prince again? Why?

I would listen to The Frog Prince again. I love the book. I also like the voice reciting the book. She was very good with reading even the terribly difficult German parts.

What other book might you compare The Frog Prince to and why?

Other romantic comedies. This was the first book that I read by this author which immediately got me hooked on all her other books.

Which scene was your favorite?

One of my favorite parts of the book is when Roman and Leigh are at the dance. The conversation that Leigh has with the other women. I literally laugh out loud every time I read or listen to it.

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

This book made me laugh and cry. I love that even though Leigh is not Luke me at all she is very relatable. She's smart, funny, clever, and loving. I fell in love with her and Romans story.

Humerous Love Story

Would you consider the audio edition of The Frog Prince to be better than the print version?

I would consider them both equally the same, but listening makes life a little easier!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved Leigh Fromm... because she is so funny and hard not to love!

Which character – as performed by Leah Frederick – was your favorite?

I believe that Leah Frederick did an amazing job as ALL characters!

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

The ending was amazing! I was touched by the entire book. I was happy, sad, giggled, and even once or twice I teared up! Well written!!!

Any additional comments?

I hope that Elle Lothlorien and Leah Frederick team up again! An amazing book, and a well done audible!!!

Cute

Cute and funny. Low hotness. Lots of dirty talk. Narrator voice high at first but does finally sound better.

The Frog Prince: A Romantic Comedy

I am a reader and this was my first Audiobook. I actually found it enjoyable experience. I played it when I was exercising. I would most definitely recommend this story. This is my second book of Elle's that I have read/listened to. She does a great job at capturing your attention from the beginning and keeping interest in the story.

Frog Prince, Cinderella with Pretty Woman humorous

Would you consider the audio edition of The Frog Prince to be better than the print version?

I consider the two versions almost equal. With the audio version, you are listening to a different interpretation of characters than what you may read.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Leigh Frahm because she reminded me of me and I like that she was true to her personality and self.

Which scene was your favorite?

The ending was extremely romantic, however my favorite was when Roman showed Leigh his tree house.

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

This story made me laugh a lot. It made me sad in parts, then happy again. Then laughing again. I thoroughly enjoyed the story.

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this audio book to any adults who want to believe that contemporary adult fairy tales can still make you believe in happily ever after. I would buy more of this author. Loved the characters and the story.
