Rags to Royals

Royals Gone Rogue, Book 3

De: Erin Nicolle, Erin Nicholas

Narrado por: Connor Crais, Amelia Hugh

A small-town single mom like me has no business believing in fairy tales.

But the very handsome, charming, dirty-talking prince (yes, seriously) I met nineteen months ago now has his fine ass and panty-melting grin planted on my front porch.

He’s been searching for me ever since I snuck out after our hot, fantasy-filled weekend together.

And, dammit, that’s a little romantic.

Now that he’s found me, he wants to pick up where we left off. Because he thinks he’s in love with me.

Oh, and because he needs to get out of the marriage his grandfather, the king, has arranged for him.

Right. Even if I hadn’t lied to him about everything but my first name, the carefree, adventurous woman he burned up the sheets with for three days doesn’t exist.

I'm actually a stressed-out mechanic back in my small hometown, raising a sassy fifteen-year-old daughter, and trying to make amends for my mean girl past.

I just don’t think my grease-streaked work boots scream princess material.

Of course, he won’t take no for an answer.

Shocking, I know.

Instead, he proposes a deal: I give him nineteen days to get to know the real me.

Then he’ll either get over me, go home, and marry someone else.

Or I’ll walk down that aisle.

Rags to Royals is a modern royal romance with a feisty single mom, a golden retriever prince who falls first and hard, and lots of delicious dirty talk and spice. It is the third book in the Royals Gone Rogue series, but can be listened to as a stand-alone.

Cian's Story Did NOT Disappoint

Ohhh I have been anxiously awaiting Cian’s story and to finally find out who is mystery woman is, so when we get to meet Scarlett and her daughter, and sister, I was beyond excited!

The beginning of the book can feel like a lot of info and characters thrown at you, so because of that I 100% recommend reading books 1 & 2 first if not for the sake of knowing who everyone is, as well as the back story of how Cian and his family (and Henry) ended up here.

I adored Cian and Scarlett’s story, and really enjoyed Cian’s journey to figuring out where he belonged and fit in, in and out of the royal family. Scarlett is a super mom, and so strong and loving, but can also be super hard on herself. It was fun seeing her finally allow herself to be spoiled a bit by Cian and shown that she IS deserving of love and an HEA, and doesn’t need to beg for it.

This book was full of found family (we get to visit Autre and Cara) and fun characters that kept me hooked from start to finish. The book is also SPICYYYYY which of course had me hooked. Cian has a dirty mouth on him and he absolutely knows how to use it! Whew!

Connor Crais AND Amelia Hugh? Performing in Duet? In an Erin Nicolle book? Sign. Me. Up. IMMEDAITELY. When this audiobook hit my phone, I absolutely devoured it. It's always so fun revisiting these stories after I've already read them - the audio books add such a fun element to the book and quite literally bring the stories to life. It's so great to catch new details I may have missed previously, and when it's performed in duet it's even more fun! Loved this audiobook!

Thoroughly enjoyed this fantastic story!

I'll be honest in saying Conner Crais could be reading me the IRS tax code and I'd be dreamy eyed and swooning. Seriously though, he and Amelia Hugh were fantastic in the duet narration of Cian and Scarlett In Rags to Royals. Erin Nicolle created a fun, heartwarming modern twist on life as a Royal and an enjoyable ride for Scarlett and Mariah as they navigated their new life.

Scarlett so deserved the "royal treatment" that Cian gave her. That man is pure book boyfriend gold and I love how they both stayed true to the other for almost 2 years after their hot and heavy weekend (and neither of them knew it). They had such a profound impact on each other that they didn't move on. The fact that man looked for her for 19 months proved he was in it to win it and my heart was so happy when they found their way back to each other.

This was my first listen by Erin Nicole but will not be the last. I need to go back and read/listen to books one and two so I can be all caught up. Overall a fantastic listen that I highly recommend.

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that I loved Ruby and Henry as well and how dreamy Henry's British accent was. I'm hoping to get more from them. *hint hint*

Love this

Much read!!! Definitely recommend this one to anyone who loves princess and body guards
Love this

Great story

I really enjoyed listening to Rags to Royals which was narrated by Connor Crais and Amelia Hugh. They did a wonderful job bringing Cian & Scarlett’s love story to life as well as the secondary characters.

Enjoyable

Scarlet and Cian
4.5*

I listened to the audio. The narrators did an excellent job telling the story and giving the characters a voice.

This is my favorite one so far. This series so far are these hot AF princes who find the loves of their lives while visiting the states. In this one you have Cian the youngest of the boys had spent a couple days with a women who then just disappeared. Almost two years later and no luck finding her finds out that he is to marry Astrid his grandfather's friend's granddaughter and it turns out His bodyguard/friend found his women. Scarlet is a single mom who for one weekend pretended to be her twin sister and throw caution to the wind. She never ment to fall for the guy but as the weekend ends she left and went back to her hometown with her sister and daughter. I enjoyed listening to this I think it was a wonderful story and the dirty talking prince swoon. Can't wait for her twin's story and the other Prince who came back.

Enjoyed the duet-style narration!

Royal romance? Yes, please. Rags to Royal by Erin Nicolle was a sweet and spicy second-chance romance that had me longing for a hot dirty-talking prince of my very own. I enjoyed everything about Scarlett and Cian’s long-awaited journey to HEA. This is book three in Nicolle’s Royals Gone Rogue series but can be read as a stand-alone.

Amelia Hugh and Connor Crais perform this audiobook in duet-style narration. This was the first time I’d heard these two paired together. Amelia’s soft, melodic voice captured Scarlett’s vulnerabilities, hesitancies, and desires as she gave into her true feelings for Cian after nineteen months of absence and longing. Connor brought his signature charm to convey Cian’s persistently swoony golden retriever tendencies that made this prince irresistible. Both narrators created the perfect amount of steamy tension between them, making their chemistry undeniable.

Overall, I enjoyed this book. If you are a fan of a royal romance with a hot hunky undercover prince, a hard-working single mom mechanic, small-towns, second chances, a devoted teenage daughter, silver charm elephant bracelets, substitute teachers, back patio steam, close proximity, weekend getaways, new start-up foundations, family health scares, love declarations, more steamy times, and a HEA that will royally bewitch you in the best ways, then you will love Scarlett and Cian’s story. I am looking forward to more from Erin Nicolle.

Fantastic narration

Rags to Royals is the third book in the Royals Gone Rogue series, but it can be read as a standalone.

Cian fell hard and fast for Scarlett, and he never stopped looking for her. And once he found her, he was determined to show her that he wasn’t going away.

Scarlett was very guarded, and she had a past. But she was doing her best to show people that she wasn’t the same person. And with Cian, she saw that she didn’t have to prove to anyone that she was different, as long as she knew she wasn’t the same.

This was so cute, and I loved the relationship between Cian and Scarlett. And Scarlett’s daughter, Mariah? She was the best! The way she was so mature and stood up for herself without resorting to “fighting” back? She was great.

I’ve been enjoying this series, and I can’t wait for the next book.

Narrated by: Connor Crais and Amelia Hugh
Narration Style: Duet

The audiobook was fantastic! Both narrators were great, and they really brought the story to life, especially with their accents.

Great story and narration

From the first chapter I was invested in the story that Ms. Nicolle wove about Cian O'Grady and the woman he falls for Scarlett.

Blindsided by his grandfather demanding that he marry within a month Cian is desperate to find the woman he fell for two years ago.

Travelling to Ohio with his bodyguard, Henry after learning she has finally been found, he re-connects with single mum Scarlett.

The story was well paced, the characters engaging and there was a good balance of romance, humour and emotions.

I fell hard and fast for Cian, he is my idea of a book boyfriend. This book was a wonderful read and one I thoroughly enjoyed.

The narration by Connor Crais & Angela Hugh was spot on. They brought the fabulous story and characters to life with their performances and I found myself listening well into the night.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

“I want to be out loud about you.”

Rags To Royals was so much more than I expected it to be. I was captivated by the story from the first page and absolutely addicted to Scarlett and Cian by the time I turned the last page. This royal romance will definitely pull at your heartstrings.

Cian is the ultimate cinnamon role hero and he is positively swoonworthy. All he wants in life is to make life easier for those that he loves and to help them achieve their dreams. His support and encouragement of Scarlett help him find his own purpose in life and I loved watching him grow into the prince we always knew he was.

Scarlett broke my heart by how much she just wanted the people in Emerald to accept her. She feels like she has to atone for her past and that has silenced her voice. She lives a small life until Cian barges his way in and helps her realize that she needs to live for herself and not others. With his love, she finds her voice and becomes an even stronger, braver person than she already was.

The audio was narrated by Connor Crais and Amelia Hugh and they were absolutely AMAZING!! Told in duet, both of these narrators brought all of the humor, heat, and heart of this story to life with every emotion displayed in their voices. I fell even more deeply in love with the story hearing it through their performances.

I could not get enough of the push and pull relationship between these two. Their banter was full of sparks and Cian was determined to win her over. Add in their explosive chemistry and passion to help others better their lives and you have two people who were the perfect complement for one another. Rags to Royals was an absolute delight full of humor, heat and heart. I cannot wait for the next story in this addictive series.

happy

Cian is to marry but he still pinning for a woman he meet years ago. What he doesnt know she lied about everything her like her name and herself.
Her named is Scarlett and she has a daughter and doesnt want to see him, until he show up and Scarlett has to explain herself and why she lied.
Cian doesnt undestand why she stay in a town where she is not like but it has to do with her dad the preacher and she want to right her wrongs from the past that is holding her back. i when back and forth on this book because her daighter was being single out and she didnt do amything about it yes she defended her but there was beat going around who would bring Scarlett daughter to church it wasnt necessary chaos.
