I received an Advanced Reader Copy from Swerve for my unbiased opinion of the book. This is the final book in The Naughty Princess Club Series. Tara saved the best for last! I loved this book! I read it in a few hours and couldn't put it down! The story centers around Ariel the most outspoken, foulest mouth, and the biggest heart of the group. When she finds the police at her door and millionaire Eric Sailor. Ariel finds her house in foreclosure and forced to move immediately. Eric offers her a place to stay with no strings attached and her own yacht to boot. Ariel is forced to deal with her insecurities and well as her horrible ex, while deciding what to do about her growing feelings for Eric. You must read this book to find out how Ariel pulls herself up and overcomes her fears to dance and stand up for what is right!
Kiss the Girl by Tara Sivec is book Three in the Naughty Princess Club Series. This is the story of Ariel Waters and Eric Sailor. I have read the previous book, but feel this can be a standalone book.
Ariel just got out of a bad marriage and the ex is still working to make her life hard. But is working to get her and her friends business ideal started when she ends up needing help. Eric has been taken by Ariel from day one but she isn't having any of it but when she needs help he is their to catch her and help. But things don't go smoothly for them...but love will always win out.
Really loved this book...it was hot, funny a hot loving guy and a strong women for the heroine....with a underline fairy-tale story line.
A struggling antiques collector finds herself falling in love with a millionaire playboy; but can she ever be a part of his world?
Meet the Naughty Princess Club, a series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that brings readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that three women fall into once they decide to strut their stuff and bring on their own happily ever after.
While her friends have broken free of their insecurities, Ariel Waters is struggling to come out of her shell. Her ex-husband took away her voice and her self-confidence, and Ariel is drowning under a sea of debt to afford the alimony she has to pay him. She refuses to ever fall for a man’s charms again, and is determined to make her own way.
When her house and her beloved antiques are taken by the bank after too many missed payments, Ariel finds herself adrift until the infuriatingly charming Eric Sailor comes to her rescue. Although she can’t stand the millionaire playboy, Eric’s kindness and unconditional support reveal hidden depths and a love that Ariel never imagined she could find.
But there are outside influences who will stop at nothing to keep them apart; can Ariel and Eric weather the storm and find a way to be together?
Loved Ariel and Eric story! It was a well written book. This entire series was great! I laughed out loud while reading their story! As different as they were their relationship just worked! Highly recommend!
Kiss the Girl is where it’s at. Here I thought nothing could top At the Stroke of Midnight, but boy was I wrong. This series left me with tears in my eyes, not the sad tears, but the OMG I think I just peed my pants laughing tears.
Basically Kiss the Girl is The Little Mermaid, retelling on crack. It is completely outrageous and hysterical. It is witty and to die for. I was smitten with Ariel in AtSoM, and knew, just knew, I would connect to her on all sorts of levels. She is truly one of my all time favorite TS heroines. I got the old school S&S vibes, and by golly I freaking LOVED that.
You never know how retellings will go. In my experience most have just been meh, this series though, it KILLS it. Every page is littered with wit, charm, profanity, and the inkling of some type of love brewing. I think the reason I loved this book in particular, is because Ariel is the Glue. She held this trio together from the get. And because of that we see Ariel turn into a true princess. Now take that with a grain of salt, there is so much more in-between the pages and even more with the girls and their Naughty Princess Club. Which, btw, is the best. I loved how the NPC really brought out the best in the two other girls, but brings out so much more in Ariel.
Everyone, and I mean everyone, needs to read this book, well the whole series. But this one for sure lol!! Each book has a little more oomph than the others, but Kiss the Girl rounds out the series. It is actually my favorite of the three and Ariel is to die for. So do yourself a favor and ONE CLICK this bad boy. You can never go wrong with a Tara Sivec book!
Kiss The Girl is a clever retelling of The Little Mermaid, with antiques dealer-turned-stripper Ariel losing everything a divorce and later finding her prince in billionaire playboy Eric, one of the strip club owners.
Ariel is sassy as heck with zero filter, and I kind of loved that about her. Eric doesn’t put up with her crap, calls her out in it, and becomes her rock. Her ties with her friends/co-workers Cindy and Belle are strong, and these three ladies get into some crazy antics.
However, I found myself skimming parts of the story because I didn’t know all of the intricacies with Cindy and Belle as well, since I didn’t read their books first. Technically, Kiss The Girl is a standalone in this series, but there are interwoven storylines that I’m sure I would have appreciated more had I read the other two books first.
I received an advanced copy via the publisher and NetGalley and voluntarily left a review.
This is by far my favorite series from Tara Sivec, if you need a book that will make you laugh out loud and have a smile on your face and also swooning and melting this is definitely for you!I cant pick only one book in this series all books were fantastic, from page one I was hooked!
I was waiting for this book from the end of the first book, because Ariel is one of my favorite heroines and I wanted to see her happy end!Omg I don't know where to start with Ariel and Eric, they are so hot together and they have an amazing banter!Full of tension and passion these two stole my heart!
If you are looking for a fun,fast paced and hot story this is perfect!I haven't laughed so much in a book before.This series is the best!
Kiss the Girl was fantastic!! Tara is so witty and so funny and her books are always entertaining.
Eric and Ariel have sizzling chemistry and witty banter that had me cracking up. I love feel good books and Kiss the Girl is definitely one. There were some twists and the right amount of everything to keep me hooked from the first page to the last. Perfectly paced and well written, Kiss the Girl is a must read!
An arc was provided for an honest review.
This book was suggested to me and I took a chance at a new author. The story is one of a three book series and while the story is separate, it probably would be a good idea to read them in order. Needless to say, this was entertaining and funny as well as romantic. The characters take a couple of chapters to form but once they do, you sit back and enjoy the ride.
Who would think a business like the Naughty Princesses could thrive? And who would even conceive such an adventure? Whimsical yet funny, and definitely entertaining! Planning to go back and read the first two books before I read this one again!
I received an ARC from the publisher for an honest and unbiased review. No compensation was promised or received for this review.
Speechless. That's how I was reading this book.
A modern re-telling story of The Little Mermaid.
Ariel Waters is in trouble. After a disastrous marriage, whose abusive husband left her with low esteem, "no voice", and moreover with serious financial problems, she did not imagine that her rescue would come through the man she least liked, Eric Sailor (I love his surname lol).
Eric is not that unbearable playboy, but he looks attentive and genuinely concerned about Ariel's story/problem.
Of course that behind all this help there was a certain interest... but would Eric and Ariel be the perfect match?
If you like modern fairy tales, this is your series.
5 stars
This is the third installment in The Naughty Princess Club. I have really loved these characters. I have been waiting for Ariel’s book. She quickly became my favorite out of the group with her outspoken fun personality.
Ariel is feisty and takes care of those she loves. These group of girls are so much fun. I would love to hang out with them. Eric is the perfect guy for Ariel. Eric doesn’t want to change Ariel; he wants her to be herself.
If you are looking for a fun romantic comedy grab these books you will love them! I highly recommend them.
I was kind of shocked how much I loved this one. It turned out to be my favorite of the series. I loved both characters so much. The h wasn't as over the top as I thought she would be and they were perfect!
Highly recommend.
Wow! It was a perfect ending to the series! When you think you knew Ariel from the first two books, Tara pulls the rug from your fit and changes everything! This book has so many layers, so much depth and an emotional development so great, that you finish it crying and laughing at the same time. Ariel is such a complex character, but at the same time she is like so many women, that it’s impossible not to relate. It was a joy to see she coming out of her shell and how Eric was a key component in everything. This book, or this hole series, for sure are now in my list of favorite fairy-tales retellings.
Kiss The Girl is SO MUCH FUN!! I needed a funny story to get me out of a book hangover and this was perfect..
It’s a Little Mermaid fairytale retelling with strippers and sexy times!!
“...the way he’s looking at me right now. Like he’s amazed. Like he’s grateful. Like I’m the best thing that’s ever told him to eat sh*! and die.”
Ariel is a sarcastic mouthy B- aitch with attitude for miles. Tough times seem to be snowballing and piling up one thing on top of another. Ariel is hiding her pain and scars under a hard exterior and trying to prove that she is a strong woman.
“I’m crying because of a guy. A GUY. An annoying, sweet, charming, hot, funny guy who Kool-Aid-man smashed his way through all the walls I built around myself without my even knowing it.”
Eric kind of swoops in. He quietly leads Ariel toward healing herself. He helps her to see that she can be in control of her own destiny.
“...but he’s been texting me nonstop, sending me pictures of Derrick Alfredo. Dozens of pictures of his devil cat wearing one ridiculous sweater after another, asking me which one makes him look the manliest. The hell beast is growing on me. And so is the cat.”
Kiss The Girl is the third book in The Naughty Princess Club series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but the characters from the previous books do play a large part in this story. This was my first book in this series, but I will immediately be picking up the first two books and catching up!!
-5 Stars!!-
Kiss the Girl by Tara Sivec. I first must say if you don't care for slang or dirty words, you might not like it but if you overlook them, it was such a great story. Ariel was an antiques collector who was struggling because of her ex-husband seeking alimony from her. She ends up first loosing her antique store and later her house and all the antiques in it. She had to work at building her self-esteem and confidence back up after the ex took them away. Watching her bud back to life with the help of her two best friends as well as Eric, who calmed her and helped her refocus when she needed it. Loved the story. I received an advance copy from Net Galley for my honest review.
4.5 Stars!
Ariel Waters lives on Fairytale Lane and is a collector of antiques. She owns a business called the Naughty Princess Club with her two best friends Cindy & Belle. They are all becoming the strong, independent women they were meant to be. Ariel has been handling the administrative side of the business, but wants to soon take on more. She's divorced and needs to get out of debt. Her life suddenly begins to fall apart around her, and a person she wouldn't expect shows her kindness in her time of need.
Eric Sailor is a gorgeous, Greek millionaire playboy. Ariel has always found him annoying, but when he unexpectedly comes to her rescue she soon realizes he's sweet, thoughtful, and charming. He seemed to know exactly what she needed. It's like he knows her deep down. He's been a constant thorn in her side since they met, but now she finds this hot, funny guy irresistible. He's breaking down her walls, and showing her how amazing she is. She's never really believed in fairy tales for herself, but she's tired of fighting her feelings for Eric. Could he be her happily ever after?
This was such a fun, lighthearted, series about girl power, friendship, and fairy tales. I loved each book, but Ariel's was my favorite!
This is a great book; this is the third book in the Naughty Princess Club series written by Tara Sivec. This book was just as good if not better than the other books in this series. These book are so funny and will keep you entertained until the end. While her friends have broken free of their insecurities, Ariel Waters is struggling to come out of her shell. Her ex-husband took away her voice and her self-confidence, and Ariel is drowning under a sea of debt to afford the alimony she has to pay him. She refuses to ever fall for a man’s charms again, and is determined to make her own way. When her house and her beloved antiques are taken by the bank after too many missed payments, Ariel finds herself adrift until the infuriatingly charming Eric Sailor comes to her rescue. Although she can’t stand the millionaire playboy, Eric’s kindness and unconditional support reveal hidden depths and a love that Ariel never imagined she could find. This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. This book will keep you reading long into the night. If you are looking for a great book, then you need to read this book. I am looking forward to reading the next book by this great author.
5 Ariel is THE BOMB Stars!!!
I’m a lover of all things Tara Sivec and I’ve been waiting for Ariel’s story since I picked up At The Stroke of Midnight. I saw something in her that I could totally relate too, but it took this book for me to have a full understanding of what makes her tick. And I’ll be honest I shed a tear or two for her because there’s so much we didn’t know until KTG.
I’ve loved following the lives of these three best friends as they start up their business and how they fall in love. I’m not going to lie, I was concerned Ariel may be the hold out because she’s got a mouth on her…which I FREAKING LOVED!! The number of times I snort laughed out loud while reading her book is too many to count. She’s witty, sarcastic, snarky and sassy. And Eric is the man who can handle all that and so much more.
The growth of their business The Naughty Princess Club has been so much fun to follow through the three books and I’m not going to lie, this one is my favorite of the three because of Ariel and all her quirky ways. But most important about this series and books is the love these three best friends have for each other and how they’re there no matter what to rescue, cry with, laugh with and help them in finding the loves of their lives. This is a series that is a must read if you’re a rom-com fan especially when it’s penned by Ms. Sivec because her words are solid gold!!
I knew going into this book that Ariel was going to annoy me. Her character was too rude, mean, and brash for me. Being an asshole to your friends wasn't cute or funny. I did warm up to her a bit and Eric helped. He was the perfect guy to go toe to toe with Ariel.
Despite Ariel being hard to like Kiss the Girl has a great story. It turns out Ariel had some major insecurities. I understood her "I don't need a man to save me" mantra. I think letting Eric in made her better. He balanced her out. He opened her eyes and helped her find her confidence. He was my favorite in this series. He was so patient with Ariel. He was also pretty swoon worthy.
This was a fun ending to the series. I especially loved the epilogues for all the couples. Well done.

Oh Eric Sailor and Ariel Waters… you two are perfection. This isn’t your typical love story. Eric is the man who has always had his eye on Ariel but Ariel is the woman who hasn’t been trapped in her own self-esteem issues. This book is about Ariel finding her voice, learning that she is a strong woman.. who doesn’t need no man… But she is also struggling with the verbal abuse her ex-husband subjected her too. This book is about the Naughty Princess Club strippers for hire but its also about female empowerment and not just a specific type of woman. This book shows even the smart mouthed scorned women can overcome their past and make a future. Initially I thought this book was going to be crazy short since the kiss came fairly early but the relationship itself felt so real and the right amount of time was used to develop their feelings.

for our two characters Eric and Ariel they discovered.. love really does happen when you least expect it and its wonderful
<b> “Goddamn it all to hell… I want the Fairytale”</b>
Thanks Netgalley For the free book, here's my honest opinion.
I enjoyed all 3 of these books. I really can't pick a favorite.
Ariel was always hit or miss or me in the other 2 books. I always felt her to be be too Bit**y. I loved how much Eric bothered her. This book made me love Ariel. I got to see her in a new light. A softer side to her. I loved how Eric handled her. He didn't push her too much
They were just perfect together.
I would have gave this book 5 stars but the little misunderstanding that happened at the end seem really out of character for Ariel, so I took one star away. Other than that...perfect.
