Love Story

by AshleyVictoria

Book: Adventure, Mystery, Romance, Science Fiction/Fantasy

An arranged marriage, secret love affair, possible war between kingdoms, and an evil plan to get rid of them all-a love story like no other

All Princess Arianna has ever dreamed about is to be in love with the one whom she thinks is her soul mate. But all dreams are crushed when her parents inform her of a treaty with a neighboring Kingdom, Charlton and how it includes her. She must marry Prince Royce, and the wedding has just been moved up. When her brother introduces her to the handsome and mysterious Prince Ethan (of the Kingdom, Eldridge-and the wrong Prince for her) her heart has been stolen and dreams are revived. With a secret love affair, a looming wedding date to a man she doesn’t love, and now an evil plan that includes destroying everything she knows-by someone she is very close to- Love Story steals you away into a world of magic, fantasy, suspense and forbidden love.

Chapter ONE:
I enjoyed the first chapter immensly. You have a few stiff spots, but overall it's good. The one thing I would suggest you change is the paragraph where Arianna is stating why she doesn't want to be a princess. The writing seems too modern for the story, other then that I loved it! I want to read more!

Chapter TWO:
"Usually they can (could) help."
"It only shows (showed) that the royal family still cares (cared)..."
" 'Lead the way.(,)' he invited."
"...after a great war that Arianna was never alive for." This sounds like the war keeps happening over and over. You might want to fix that.

You seem to use alot of hyphens (-). You might want to pare down a little.

And your dialogue seems a bit modern in this chapter as well.

Chapter THREE:
" '...yes.{,}' She confirmed."
"...saying those two {three} words to him..."
"Even when it rained you could still come out here..." This whole sentence is confusing.
" 'It's magnificent. {,} Royce complimented."
Again I think your dialogue is a bit modern.

Happy writing,
Tessa~Faith

You have concocted a beautiful opening. I love Arianna. She's such a romantic that she's so easy for me to relate to. She's so persevering, and I just like the way she is really desperate for her true love. I think that's really adorable.
The way the characters talk makes them really enchanting--just like they were carved from a fairytale, and their names are awesome too!
Just wanted to say this but BLOND you got it right! It's really hard to read something where people use blonde for guys. blond=guys, blondE=girls. Just wanted to throw that out.
I really like the idea of the enchanted forest. It reminds me of this TV show I used to watch (but it didn't have princesses) and I just feel in love with that show, like I did with this book. Back to the story...the forest gives the story a bit of excitement and thrill. Nice touch.
I'm stickin' this on my picks if it wasn't obvious already.

Hmmm the blurb about this book seems familiar to Romeo and Juliet. Maybe I'm wrong, I'll check this out some time. =D ; )

I thought this was very well written. I really liked your story line and I can't wait to see how the story will unfold. So far, I felt that you did a good job portraying your characters. I like Arianna a lot. Keep up the good work and make sure to keep me updated on this story. I can't wait to see what happens next.
