Grace and Dignity by Laura Grody
Blurb
According to Milo, rescuing Prince Dignity would be easy: 'On the count of three, we take a running Leap of Faith off Carpe' Diem Cliff, cross the River of Fear in the Raft of Courage, and boom, we're at the Castle of Doom.' Princess Grace and Prince Dignity, a royal couple with mystical powers, are set to be crowned king and queen of the magnificent Kingdom of Love. But on the eve of their coronation, disaster strikes, and Grace is told her prince has been murdered. Grief-stricken, the princess reportedly dies of a broken heart, and the shocked kingdom falls into the eager hands of Dignity's unscrupulous cousin, Prince Denial. Months later, however, Grace is found alive with a gap in her memory, a loss of her powers, and a mysterious Pig Latin note suggesting Prince Dignity is very much alive. As she searches for her prince throughout the rundown kingdom, Grace stumbles upon an ancient secret known as 'The Cosmic Source' - a powerful force which promises to revive her mystical powers and lead to an exciting new way of living. But with the crown title 'throne' for a loop, the future of the Kingdom of Love hangs upon the prince's Dignity. Find out if True Love conquers all in this mystical, linguistical tale of 'Grace and Dignity.
My Review
In the Kingdom of Love everything is pretty much wonderful. On the eve of the coronation of Prince Dignity and Princess Grace that all changes. The prince is said to be murdered and the princess runs away and dies from from a broken heart. Prince Dignity's cousin Denial takes over the kingdom and many changes start to take place. the wonderful kingdom becomes broken and in horrible shape. However almost a year later Princess Grace returns with little memory of the past or anything else. She just know Prince Dignity is alive and she must find him before it is to late. As Grace hunts for her prince she finds many secrets that can help her out. She has to be careful as Prince Denial will do anything to keep the kingdom.
Prince Grace is a wonderfully sweet girl who has a unique gift. She is very special and the type of person everyone loves. She is what you want a princess to be. She also can be very tough and persistent as she hunts for the truth behind what happens. Prince Dignity like his name says is a great person and will be a wonderful leader. He doesn't lord over anyone and loves Grace very much. He will do anything to keep his kingdom safe.
It is very hard to describe this story. It is a very charming read and I really enjoyed the characters. The whole place the author has create is a very magical place. The names they have are very cute and some of the places I had to laugh at as they are very charming. There is magic in this book as well but I won't give any of that away.I will say it does play a big part in the story. This is a book I would let a teen read as well as it is a clean book. The romance is so sweet and you see these two will let nothing stand in the way of their love. The villain is someone you can hate but you also get to laugh at him along with everyone else at times. There is action as they hint for clues and try to save the kingdom from falling into deeper destruction. For a wonderfully sweet story that will charm you give this one a try.

I'm not sure I would have ever given this book a second look by the cover alone. I'm not really sure how I feel about it, but your review really makes me want to pick this up and check it out! Thanks for the fun review and for not giving away any big details...sometimes that can be so hard to do!
