About this listen
A small-town single mom like me has no business believing in fairy tales.
But the very handsome, charming, dirty-talking prince (yes, seriously) I met nineteen months ago now has his fine ass and panty-melting grin planted on my front porch.
He’s been searching for me ever since I snuck out after our hot, fantasy-filled weekend together.
And, dammit, that’s a little romantic.
Now that he’s found me, he wants to pick up where we left off. Because he thinks he’s in love with me.
Oh, and because he needs to get out of the marriage his grandfather, the king, has arranged for him.
Right. Even if I hadn’t lied to him about everything but my first name, the carefree, adventurous woman he burned up the sheets with for three days doesn’t exist.
I'm actually a stressed-out mechanic back in my small hometown, raising a sassy fifteen-year-old daughter, and trying to make amends for my mean girl past.
I just don’t think my grease-streaked work boots scream princess material.
Of course, he won’t take no for an answer.
Shocking, I know.
Instead, he proposes a deal: I give him nineteen days to get to know the real me.
Then he’ll either get over me, go home, and marry someone else.
Or I’ll walk down that aisle.
Rags to Royals is a modern royal romance with a feisty single mom, a golden retriever prince who falls first and hard, and lots of delicious dirty talk and spice. It is the third book in the Royals Gone Rogue series, but can be listened to as a stand-alone.

My grandma gave me these words of wisdom just before she died. Then she told me to run. Because if the old witch is dying, then he needs a new one. And that’s me. This is my curse. I am the vampire’s power. I am the vampire’s strength. I am the vampire’s food. And he is very, very hungry.

Story
It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again. Now, a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.

The job was simple. Always answer the phone—no exceptions—then solve the caller’s catastrophe as efficiently as possible. The rules were simpler. They contact you, not the other way around. Never give them your real name, number, or any personal information not required to help a newly single dad keep his head above water. And never, ever get involved with a caller.

I’ve got a list of people I absolutely don’t ever want to be stuck with on a boat, or a plane, or a train, and it starts and ends with the broody, grumpy, too-sexy-for-my-own good Axel Huxley. Also known as this romance novelist’s number one nemesis. The man is legendary for his mighty pen and his even mightier scowl. I tried to work together with the cocky thriller writer once upon a time, but the two of us are like vodka and good decisions. We don’t play well together.

It’s not easy being a woman working in a male dominated field. Add in the fact that my uncle owns the baseball team I work for, and proving I belong here is a constant battle. Dating a player was never an option. Not if I wanted to keep a shred of dignity and respect. Then Ronan Sinclair sits down next to me in first class with his alluring blue eyes and hard-to-resist dimples. To say nothing of his kindness and charm, or his determination to convince me that a steamy vacation fling is what we both need.

From the outside, I live a charmed life: hockey legend for a father, my own promising future in the league, a great family, awesome friends. It’s not untrue, but it’s not quite that simple either. My dad’s advice has always been to make hockey my number-one priority—at least until I make it to the pros. So going into my senior year of college, I have a plan. I’ll put in the effort required to pass my classes, play hockey like my life depends on it, and avoid relationships. All I have to do is stay focused on the end game. It should be easy.

It didn’t take long for news to spread that Tagger Grange was back in Peachtree Pass. I found out even faster when I fell right into his arms—not by choice. The barstool wobbled under me when reaching for a cheddar biscuit. They’re my weakness. Much like he used to be. Rolled up sleeves and tailored pants have replaced the boots and jeans my brother’s best friend once wore. But it’s not just the clothes that have changed. His shoulders are broader and he’s broodier. Somehow, he's even more handsome than ever.

Lennox Kennedy is beautiful, loud, and the love of my life. She's also my ex-girlfriend. The first time I saw her after ten years apart, I slammed into the plexiglass minutes before our game was set to begin. The second time I threw up. The third time's a charm apparently because as my fiancée and I walked into an appointment to meet the woman hired to plan our nuptials—there she was again. Obviously, I did what any smart man would do—I called off the wedding. I don't have a plan per se, other than winning back the only girl I've ever loved.

Six years ago, Maria Romano got her birthday wish—a kiss from Enzo Costa. A man she could never take her eyes off, but who seemed as haunted as her favorite book boyfriends and strictly off-limits. Just one unforgettable moment in the dark and then he was gone. Now Maria is a divorced single mom, moving on and open to romance again. Fatefully, it’s with the new head chef at her sister’s restaurant: Enzo. A gentler man than the one she remembers, yet fire still burns. And a warning still lingers: don’t get too close.

Story
I kissed my father’s best friend, and it kind of didn’t go well. Not only because he’s 18 years older than me - but he also didn’t like it. Not one bit. In my defense, I didn’t mean to fall for him. It just happened. Nathaniel Weaver is the most attractive man I’ve ever seen with enough charisma to blind the sun. He’s bigger than the world, owns half of it, and conquered the other half. He was forbidden. Wrong. So I totally got over him. Or so I told myself. Until we’re forced to get married.

The beginning of the book can feel like a lot of info and characters thrown at you, so because of that I 100% recommend reading books 1 & 2 first if not for the sake of knowing who everyone is, as well as the back story of how Cian and his family (and Henry) ended up here.
I adored Cian and Scarlett’s story, and really enjoyed Cian’s journey to figuring out where he belonged and fit in, in and out of the royal family. Scarlett is a super mom, and so strong and loving, but can also be super hard on herself. It was fun seeing her finally allow herself to be spoiled a bit by Cian and shown that she IS deserving of love and an HEA, and doesn’t need to beg for it.
This book was full of found family (we get to visit Autre and Cara) and fun characters that kept me hooked from start to finish. The book is also SPICYYYYY which of course had me hooked. Cian has a dirty mouth on him and he absolutely knows how to use it! Whew!
Connor Crais AND Amelia Hugh? Performing in Duet? In an Erin Nicolle book? Sign. Me. Up. IMMEDAITELY. When this audiobook hit my phone, I absolutely devoured it. It's always so fun revisiting these stories after I've already read them - the audio books add such a fun element to the book and quite literally bring the stories to life. It's so great to catch new details I may have missed previously, and when it's performed in duet it's even more fun! Loved this audiobook!

I listened to the audio. The narrators did an excellent job telling the story and giving the characters a voice.
This is my favorite one so far. This series so far are these hot AF princes who find the loves of their lives while visiting the states. In this one you have Cian the youngest of the boys had spent a couple days with a women who then just disappeared. Almost two years later and no luck finding her finds out that he is to marry Astrid his grandfather's friend's granddaughter and it turns out His bodyguard/friend found his women. Scarlet is a single mom who for one weekend pretended to be her twin sister and throw caution to the wind. She never ment to fall for the guy but as the weekend ends she left and went back to her hometown with her sister and daughter. I enjoyed listening to this I think it was a wonderful story and the dirty talking prince swoon. Can't wait for her twin's story and the other Prince who came back.
Enjoyable

Amelia Hugh and Connor Crais perform this audiobook in duet-style narration. This was the first time I’d heard these two paired together. Amelia’s soft, melodic voice captured Scarlett’s vulnerabilities, hesitancies, and desires as she gave into her true feelings for Cian after nineteen months of absence and longing. Connor brought his signature charm to convey Cian’s persistently swoony golden retriever tendencies that made this prince irresistible. Both narrators created the perfect amount of steamy tension between them, making their chemistry undeniable.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. If you are a fan of a royal romance with a hot hunky undercover prince, a hard-working single mom mechanic, small-towns, second chances, a devoted teenage daughter, silver charm elephant bracelets, substitute teachers, back patio steam, close proximity, weekend getaways, new start-up foundations, family health scares, love declarations, more steamy times, and a HEA that will royally bewitch you in the best ways, then you will love Scarlett and Cian’s story. I am looking forward to more from Erin Nicolle.
Enjoyed the duet-style narration!

Cian fell hard and fast for Scarlett, and he never stopped looking for her. And once he found her, he was determined to show her that he wasn’t going away.
Scarlett was very guarded, and she had a past. But she was doing her best to show people that she wasn’t the same person. And with Cian, she saw that she didn’t have to prove to anyone that she was different, as long as she knew she wasn’t the same.
This was so cute, and I loved the relationship between Cian and Scarlett. And Scarlett’s daughter, Mariah? She was the best! The way she was so mature and stood up for herself without resorting to “fighting” back? She was great.
I’ve been enjoying this series, and I can’t wait for the next book.

Scarlett so deserved the "royal treatment" that Cian gave her. That man is pure book boyfriend gold and I love how they both stayed true to the other for almost 2 years after their hot and heavy weekend (and neither of them knew it). They had such a profound impact on each other that they didn't move on. The fact that man looked for her for 19 months proved he was in it to win it and my heart was so happy when they found their way back to each other.
This was my first listen by Erin Nicole but will not be the last. I need to go back and read/listen to books one and two so I can be all caught up. Overall a fantastic listen that I highly recommend.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that I loved Ruby and Henry as well and how dreamy Henry's British accent was. I'm hoping to get more from them. *hint hint*
Thoroughly enjoyed this fantastic story!

Blindsided by his grandfather demanding that he marry within a month Cian is desperate to find the woman he fell for two years ago.
Travelling to Ohio with his bodyguard, Henry after learning she has finally been found, he re-connects with single mum Scarlett.
The story was well paced, the characters engaging and there was a good balance of romance, humour and emotions.
I fell hard and fast for Cian, he is my idea of a book boyfriend. This book was a wonderful read and one I thoroughly enjoyed.
The narration by Connor Crais & Angela Hugh was spot on. They brought the fabulous story and characters to life with their performances and I found myself listening well into the night.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Cian is the ultimate cinnamon role hero and he is positively swoonworthy. All he wants in life is to make life easier for those that he loves and to help them achieve their dreams. His support and encouragement of Scarlett help him find his own purpose in life and I loved watching him grow into the prince we always knew he was.
Scarlett broke my heart by how much she just wanted the people in Emerald to accept her. She feels like she has to atone for her past and that has silenced her voice. She lives a small life until Cian barges his way in and helps her realize that she needs to live for herself and not others. With his love, she finds her voice and becomes an even stronger, braver person than she already was.
The audio was narrated by Connor Crais and Amelia Hugh and they were absolutely AMAZING!! Told in duet, both of these narrators brought all of the humor, heat, and heart of this story to life with every emotion displayed in their voices. I fell even more deeply in love with the story hearing it through their performances.
I could not get enough of the push and pull relationship between these two. Their banter was full of sparks and Cian was determined to win her over. Add in their explosive chemistry and passion to help others better their lives and you have two people who were the perfect complement for one another. Rags to Royals was an absolute delight full of humor, heat and heart. I cannot wait for the next story in this addictive series.

I’ve already reviewed this story so I’m just going to concentrate on narration right now. Amelia Hugh & Connor Crais did an excellent job with their duet performance. I’ve always enjoyed Connor, and it was no different this time around. Amelia Hugh was new to my ears, and it took some getting used to her cadence and style. She comes across as more of a reader than a performer and that’s not a favorite for me. I did not not enjoy this audiobook because of it, but I wasn’t able to get lost in the story like I normally do. Hopefully the more audiobooks I listen to by her, my ears will become more adjusted. I’m not giving up just yet!
One last little tidbit and this is about the story as a whole. When I read the story, this particular *thing* never even crossed my mind, but with the audiobook, it was glaring in my head! The plot point surrounding Scarlett’s insistence she had to live in the town to prove herself just dragged on and went too far in my opinion. Even when it was glaring obvious that it was at the detriment of her family, she kept “keeping on” as they say, and it took a little of the shine out of the story. It didn’t feel like a natural progression to me, rather like conflict that was dragged for the dramatic effect and … #twitchy *shrug* This is the very reason I love to play the “which format may or may not be better” game :) because you just never know how things will hit you in a book and reading and listening can completely change your perspective on a dime! I wouldn’t go as far as to say one is better than the other in this case but maybe … (lol)
eBook Review October 2024
I am completely and irrevocably smitten with Royals Gone Rogue and Erin Nicolle! Some of you are probably wondering what took me so long to be smitten by her since she’s Erin Nicholas, who’s been publishing fantastic stories since like forever! Amirite? You’re wondering? Well, it’s because it seems like a million years ago since I read her so it’s all fresh and new and fridiculously fantastic!! But I digress … about Rags to Royals …
First of all, I’m pretty sure I laughed out loud thru most of the story! The story was flirty and charming and entertaining and also emotional! It was all the things people! ALL OF THEM! I am so hyped over it that I can’t wait to get it in my ears! I really like the choices Erin made for not just the characters but also the storyline. I liked that it wasn’t easy peasy for Cian to waltz into Scarlet’s life and convince her he’s the one. He had to work it and it was so devastatingly swoony and also moving and heartfelt. It felt very real and relatable even though he’s a royal. Feel me? I love that Cian and Mariah were a team and her character wasn’t written in the typical nonconformist way teenagers are mostly portrayed. She was on #TeamCian and helped every step of the way! *heart eyes*
I don’t want to say anything else for fear I might let slip a circumstance in the story that will spoil it for you because you should really experience everything about not just this story but this series with fresh eyes and a blank brain. LOL It’s how I have experienced it from the very beginning, and I have never been more captivated and in love with a whole lot of fictional people like I am with every single character, including the sketchy ones, in this huge circle! I should really get my act together and read more of Erin’s work because my kindle says I own *whispers* 30 of them shsssss! Lol
