Review:
It is obvious from reading The Rebel Princess that Anne M. Strick knows the film industry. Thankfully, she used this knowledge in a way not to bore the reader but to entertain. We get a sneak peak into life on a movie set, exotic locations, then add in romance, mystery, and a love the main character, Davena, cannot forget. The dialogue is very believable and I enjoyed the behind-the-scenes experience and Hollywood glitz. With a cover which may be construed as a YA novel, this is NOT for a younger audience. This book does have adult content and is intended for mature readers.
Rating: 3
