REBEL PRINCESS by Lynn
Stevens is a modern romance retelling of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Fans of
military romance, sweet love, and coming of age stories will enjoy this new
adult romance. The next installment of the Modern Princess Collection is now
LIVE!
I was born to rebel.
Against love. Against authority. Against myself.
Perfect precision, that’s how I planned my life. Dancing was
my whole world. I wanted to be in the spotlight with all eyes on me, but
recently, my heart’s pulled me in a different direction. Writing for the school
paper has excited me in a way dance never has. Exposing truths trumps
pirouettes and countless hours in the studio and being true to myself is more
important than keeping dangerous secrets hidden.
Getting close to Colin and his lacrosse buddies allowed me
access to their secrets—but I had no idea how deep they went. On the brink of
exposing them, I was set back. No sources, no boyfriend, and no way to get justice. No matter which angle
I pursued, my story kept getting shut down.
Until I met the guy with the scars. The one who helped me
when I didn’t know what to do or who to turn to. He came into my life out of
nowhere, saved me, and taught me to believe in myself. Then, when I finally
did, he didn’t believe in me. I had to stand on my own two feet, fight for my
values and for what I needed—for what I had earned—and learn that justice
always comes with a cost.
Rebel Princess is part of the Modern Princess Collection. This one is a Hunchback of Notre Dame retelling. I admit, I haven't read the original story, so I have no context for this retelling. Having said that I did ultimately enjoy Emerald's story. I liked her character and her willingness to fight for what she believed in. I loved her decision in the end with what she published on the Gossip blog. That should have been done a long time before. I still feel like she got a raw deal in the end and would have loved to see what happened after the story was published. I didn't feel like this one was as much of a romance, because I didn't see enough of Quinn and Emerald together. I would have liked to see Quinn's point of view. It would have helped me be more invested in the romance part. I do recommend picking this one up.
About Lynn
Lynn Stevens flunked out of college writing her first novel.
Yes, she still has it and no, you can't read it. Surprisingly, she graduated
with honors at her third school. A former farm girl turned city slicker, Lynn
lives in the Midwest where she drinks coffee she can't pronounce and sips tea
when she's out of coffee. When she's out of both, just stay away.
