Cordina’s Royal Family

I been looking forward to reading this book. I enjoy reading this series of The Cordina’s Royal Family. I love the characters and their story they are telling me too.

hopless romantics will love it.

If you are a hopeless romantic, like stories about princes and princesses and love a classic ending. Then you will enjoy this book. I really like the fact that Hannah was a heroine but Bennett also took some credit. Very entertaining.

Another jewel from Nora

I am a HUGE Nora Roberts fan and she has yet to disappoint me. I just finished reading this book and I have falling in love with the royal family. I hope that this book brings others a much pleasure and escape as it has brought me.

My First Taste of Nora Roberts

I was in a bookstore and happened to pick up "Cordina's Royal Family." I'm really glad I did. My favorite story was "The Playboy Prince." I love Bennett and Hannah. I also liked "Command Performance." The first story, "Affaire Royale," is not the best; each one just gets better. I liked this trilogy so much that I bought "Carolina Moon" by Nora Roberts. However, from page one I saw that "C.M." was waaaaay different from the Cordina trilogy--not that I don't like it so far (I'm in the middle of reading it); it's just different. So I'm going to agree with another reviewer and say that Nora Roberts's early works are the best--more romance, less murder/mystery stuff.

Three Wonderful Stories! Well Worth the Wait!

"Cordina's Royal Family" is an omnibus of three stories written by Nora Roberts in the mid-1980's. I have searched for these three out of print tales for years, so imagine my delight when I discovered that they were to be re-printed in a special 3-in-1 collector's edition. Well, I am happy to report that it was worth the wait. Nora's three tales of royal romance and palace intrigue are, in a word, fantastic!First is "Affaire Royale", which introduces the reader to Her Serene Highness Princess Gabriella de Cordina. Gabriella has just lived through a terrifying ordeal - being kidnapped. But Brie can't remember anything. Not who kidnapped her or how she escaped, not who her father and brothers are, not even her own name. Concerned about the safety of his only daughter, Prince Armand hires bodyguard Reeve MacGee to protect Brie. Lost in a sea of concerned, unfamiliar faces, Brie finds a lifeline in Reeve. Reeve sets about helping Gabriella regain her memories, and as time passes he falls hard for the classy, determined, and remarkable Brie. Though he tries to remind himself that letting his emotions get involved will only cloud his senses while trying to protect Gabriella, Reeve well and truly loses his heart. But Reeve also knows that a guy like him has no future with a princess, and so he keeps what is in his heart to himself.Though she is confused and scared and trying to find herself, Brie knows that the one thing that's real in her life is the love she feels for Reeve. Trying to accept that he doesn't love her the way she loves him isn't easy, though Gabriella was never one to give up when she wanted something. The passion that burns between Reeve and Brie will thrill and entice readers. But the threat to Brie is closer to home than anyone realizes, and though Reeve believes he has to let her go, he would never recover if the kidnappers' violent plans for Brie succeed!Next is "Command Performance", which is even better than the delightful first story. His Royal Highness Prince Alexander is the heir to the Cordinian throne, and as a result he must always keep his emotions, and his temper, on a tight rein. Regal and enticing Eve Hamilton, the one woman Alex truly desires, has always seemed just out of his reach. Seemingly in love with his younger brother Bennett, when Eve comes to Cordina at his request, Alex knows a frustration unlike anything he has ever known. Eve, the manager of her own theatre troupe, is commissioned by Alex to put on four plays to benefit a children's charity. Though Alex is forever rubbing Eve the wrong way, she knows her troupe's first international performance is an opportunity too great to pass up.But all is not perfect in Cordina. The man behind Princess Gabriella's kidnapping several years earlier, Deboque, is terrorizing Cordina with bombings. Next, Deboque begins using Eve to threaten the Royal Family. Alex is terrified for Eve's safety, but Eve is resolute that she will remain in Cordina and do

Worth waiting for!!!

I was so excited to finally read this trilogy. I had been unable to get my hands on any of the individual stories for ... and was waiting excitedly for this re-release. Thankfully, it was completely worth the wait. Three great stories, three terrific Bissett royal sibs, three heart-melting romances, one terrible villain, and plenty of suspense. I especially liked the third story which was somewhat reminiscent of my favorite show, ALIAS. Also, I really enjoy these earlier Nora Roberts which don't have quite the horror/creepy edge of her current releases. All in all, this a super-duper page-turner that you won't be able to put down. Nora Roberts at her finest!!! Go Nora!!
