It would be interesting to see who can tame his wildness.” - Deb, Reviewer, Sensualreads.net

“Kelli A. Wilkins finishes her trilogy of books, which started with A Most Unusual Princess and Dalton’s Temptation, with a bang. The Pauper Prince is a riveting tale, and it is a must read for anyone who enjoys Fantasy Romance. It is stuffed full of action, love, excitement, sedition, and scurvy characters that are set to make our prince’s life miserable in the extreme if he lets them. Skillful crafting allows the reader to slip under the spell of Allan and live his every ache, pain, and triumph.
The Pauper Prince, available now from Amber Quill Press is a real must read, and in case you haven’t read the others, I would suggest you get A Most Unusual Princess and Dalton’s Temptation, too. Kelli has definitely written a trio of must buys for Amber Quill!!!” - Rose, Reviewer, Romance at Heart

“5 Coffee Cups! I honestly started out not knowing if I would like this book or not and then found myself glued to the pages, unable to stop reading until I had read the final page. All I can say now is WOW! The Pauper Prince is a real page-turner! There is non-stop action and mayhem from the very first page. The characters are spirited and so realistic that you find yourself relating to them very easily. The love scenes are highly erotic, but tender and emotion-filled as well. This is one book that I have no problem giving my highest rating, and I highly recommend it to everyone!” - Regina, Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance

“4.5 Nymphs! What a story Kelli A. Wilkins has written with The Pauper Prince! So much mystery surrounding Allan… The twists and turns throughout the book will keep you reading to make sure everyone involved survives their adventures. These characters came to life for me and I was fascinated by Allan’s persistence to survive everything that happens to him… With all the other surprises in the book, you will not be bored reading this one and it is definitely not one to put down for long!” - Goddess Minx, Literary Nymphs Reviews Only

An Excerpt from The Pauper Prince

Why did he feel so nervous? Was it because he was out on a date with Claudette? All through dinner, he’d felt like a fourteen-year-old boy that was left alone with a girl for the first time. That’s how Claudette made him feel—excited and alive. But he had no money, no riches, and no titles to impress her with. He just had himself. Would it be enough?

“Did you forget something?” he asked as Claudette walked behind the counter.

“Yes, these.” She held up a pair of gray wool gloves. “These are for you. They’ll keep your hands warm. You can’t wear your work gloves all the time. They’re not lined, and your hands will freeze. These are thick and--”

He ignored her speech about lining and wool. Why was she giving the gloves to him? He couldn’t pay for them.

“Oh hell!” Claudette exclaimed.

The next thing he knew, Claudette wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. He dropped the gloves as she entwined her hot tongue with his. What brought this on? He was helpless to resist her ardent kisses, so he gave in. What else could he do but kiss her back?

After a few minutes, she broke the kiss and looked up at him. “You’re not angry with me, are you?”

“No, absolutely not. Just shocked. I didn’t--”

His words were silenced as she kissed him again and pushed him back against the counter.

“I have more kisses for you. If you’d like.” She unbuttoned his coat, stroked his chest, and then slid her hands lower.

“Claudette, what--”

“Shh, don’t talk. Hold still and let me.”

“Let you do what?”

“I’m giving you what you wanted,” she whispered as she unbuttoned his breeches.

“You’re not gonna--”

“Oh yes I am.”
