The Sinful King By: Claire Contreras

     If you had any ties to Marbella, it was impossible for you not to have heard the stories about Prince Elias and his debauchery. 
     Every summer he arrived with his security detail and friends in tow and rented out a row of cottages near the water. Cottages that belonged to Adeline's family. 
     Each of those summers Adeline's parents sent her away - summer camp and later, boarding school. Anything to keep Adeline away from the royals and their partying. 
     Adeline hasn't been home in years, but when she finally comes back for the summer, she can see that not much has changed. Like all the summers she'd been gone. Price Elias is back, but this time with an incognito security detail and no friends. This time, there is no partying, no noise, no crowds. No reason at all to even think he was there. 
     She's given strict orders not to talk to him, not to even look in his direction, but he makes this an impossible task. Adeline may be doing everything in her power to stay away from him, but there is no one in the world who can say no to the future King of France. 


     When I first started reading The Sinful King I wasn't really sure what to expect. I read the sample and I thought, ok this could go either way but kept reading anyways. And slowly but surely once I really started reading I could not stop and managed to finish in one day. This was not only a story that I enjoyed reading but one that I would definitely read again.
