I was asked to read and review The Soldier Prince and give it an honest review. I didn’t know what to expect since this was the first novel I have read by Raman, but I was intrigued by the synopsis This isn’t one of those Cinderella stories, but for a second I thought it would be. I thought I had the story pegged by Raman surprised me in a good way and I was pleasantly surprised the direction the story went. It brought true emotions out in me. There were tears, and laughter and then tears with my laughter, then even more tears. I didn’t ugly cry, but I couldn’t make the tears stop. This book brought back those feelings of love when you feel the butterflies in your stomach, and nervous and excited all at the same time to be near your heart’s desire. The only issue I had with the novel was some of the writing style. I would get a bit confused on who’s perspective we were in when both Alexander and Sasha were both featured in a chapter. I find it is easier if the author sticks to one perspective per chapter then flopping back and forth as the characters speak. It made things confusing, and I would have to go back and reread much of what I just read.
