The Bride and Her Prince

by mimi11052003

Book: , General Fiction, Romance, Humor

Finding out you’re getting married to a prince on your birthday is never that great of a surprise. Or is it?

Maria been engaged since birth, and found out from her parents on her eighteenth birthday. And she is not happy, not in the least. She’s getting married to a boy she’s known since she was six. Who disliked her for no good reason. She hasn’t seen him for two years and now she’s engaged to him! Maria’s made a promise to herself not to fall in love with Prince or his charm. Or at least she’s gonna try.

**My book is currently being edited and looked over. Please, be patient with the constant updates. :)**

I want to say thank you to EVERYONE who nominated my book or voted for The Bride and Her Prince in the 1st Annual Inkie Awards. I just got the message today that I won the Category of "Best Romance" I can't tell you guys how much it means to me. How much you guys have supported my book just blows my mind. And I'd like to give a huge shout out to everyone who inspired me to keep writing when I just wanted my book to jump off a cliff or something. You guys helped me turn my itsy bitty short story into a great joy in my life. And I thank you all very much.

Hi Melinda! Wow, your book is great! I love your writing style. It is so fun and easy to read: it is just like reading a fairy-tale romance (no pun intended). :-) Congratulations on winning that award you won for your book. It is well-deserved. I do hope you will continue pursuing your writing and try your best to get a publishing deal one day. You are VERY TALENTED! :-)

By the way, we share the same birthdate. I guess that means we will both become famous, wealthy, and successful authors! ;-) I do hope you can read my mere book sometime Melinda. We fantasy-romance authors must stick together right, especially when we share the same birthday! :0)

Remember: believe in yourself and your writing always Melinda!!! :-)

Your fellow writer and friend,

Kevin Wong
Author of Heroes of Destiny

I absolutely adore this!
I love the whole present day royalty and planned marriage since birth, fairytale type story you have going on.. even though I was about to cry along with her. :/
I really, absolutely, positively, without a second thought in my mind, hope that you continue the story (:
I'll be waiting.

I really like this so far (I am up to chapter 5) I really like Maria.
To improve I think you could show a little bit more instead of telling. Because the story is in 1st person its easy to forget that sometimes things need to be eased into, for example the part about the grandchildren. Maybe you can have the Parents keep talking about children before Maria reaches the conclusion that they want grandchildren, I think we (the readers) should believe it too and not just because Maria told us that's what they want. If we discover it with her it's more fun, or if we draw the same conclusion (whether true or false, because I haven't gotten that far) it's also more fun.
Anyway I really like it. You have some great characters and I can't wait to read more.

Just wondering if your going to keep going with your book? I really like it so far, but you cant keep your readers hanging like that. :)

Hmm... your first chapter seems very 'tell, not show' which is bad, and the tone seems slightly juvenile--I feel like I'm being reminded that I'm reading, which is never a good thing to me--you want your reader to forget they're reading a book, and I don't feel quite like you've accomplished that here. The concept is good, if a bit cliche, and I'll see if you develop your characters further,
