Meet the Naughty Princess Club: a brand new series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that introduces readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that ensue when three women start a new business to make it rain.

Once upon a time Cynthia was the perfect housewife. Between being the President of the PTA and keeping her home spotless without a hair (or her pearls) out of place, her life was a dream come true. Her husband was once her knight in shining armor, but now he’s run off with all their money…and the babysitter.

Dressed as a princess at the annual Halloween block party on Fairytale Lane, she meets two other “princesses” also facing money troubles: antique store owner Ariel and librarian Isabelle. When the women are invited to wear their costumes to a party where they’re mistaken for strippers, Cindy, Ariel, and Belle realize that a career change could be the best way to make their money problems go bippity-boppity-boo.

But can structured Cindy approach a stripper pole without sanitizing wipes? And could the blue-eyed anti-prince that has been crossing her path become Cindy’s happily ever after? At the Stroke of Midnight is a hilarious, empowering story where princesses can save themselves while slaying in stilettos.

Review:

Cindy is your typical uptight, judgmental, stuffy house wife. President of the PTA. A place for everything, everything in its place. You know the type. One day she comes home to divorce papers from her husband and her whole world gets turned upside down.

Throughout the story we see Cindy do a complete 180. She loosened up, stopped being a pushover and started to live her life the way she truly wanted. Along the way she gets help from new friends, Belle and Ariel.

These women are so different but the same in a way. Belle is nice, quiet and shy. Ariel is crude, tells it like it is and in your face. I loved these girls so hard. They supported each other, pushed each other, and came running when needed.  I want them to be apart of my tribe.

It’s been a while since I have read Tara Sivec and I forgot how funny this author can be! I laughed nonstop while reading this book and it took me of out an impending book funk. Once I started I couldn’t put the story down. I can’t wait to read the rest of this series and I’m kicking myself for not reading sooner!
