5.0 out of 5 stars
good romance on another world, Feb 17 2007
By Cin Dee - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Playful Prince (Paperback)
Dr. Tori Elliot is sent to the Var palace on the planet of Qurilixen to test for contamination after a biological weapon was found and removed, there she meets Prince Quinn and they are instantly attracted to each other. At first she fights her desire because she wants to act professional, but he is so playfully sexy, that of course they get together. But then she discovers a threat to the entire planet, at the same time he is trying to deal with these new feelings he has toward her.
The writing and storyline are both good, the passion between them is great. All together a very good book to read.
This is the 3rd book in the Lords of the Var series. Two species live on this male dominated plant, the Draig who are dragon shapeshifters and the Var who are cat shapeshifters. I eagerly await book 4 The Rogue Prince and book 5 The Pirate Prince to be printed.

I loved this book and all of the Lords of Var books. As well as the Dragon Lord books. Michelle Pillow is a wonderful writer and I highly recommend anything she writes. This is a great series.

embarrassing how snookered i got with this frothy, over the top romance series. In this episode, Dr Tori Elliot, over-achieving research scientist is drafted/dragged into temporary service on planet Qurillixen.
Aggravation and attraction develop quickly between her and carefree Var Prince Quinn. While professionalism and logic initially restrain her emotions, Quinn grows increasingly agitated. Tori and Quinn are each well drawn, bold, larger than life--except in their grounding sense of inner doubt.
a continuous mishmash of fun and mayhem. The fun includes, well... The mayhem is biologic weapons, murder, good Var/bad Var. Even with the subplots it's light, escapist. In regards to another review, i did pay somewhat crazy money for an OoP copy. Publisher was also sold out. Worth every penny.
