If you already know the series, you know what you're getting, but it's not necessary to have read the previous two books. It's just that readers who enjoyed the first two, riffing off Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, have been watching foul-mouthed, crass, loud, brash Ariel, who despite her brashness is steadfastly loyal to her besties.
It's her turn for romance, and of course her tale is going to start off with a bang, as four, not one, but four, sheriffs (complete with Tasers) come to serve papers on her announcing that she's basically lost everything. And they expect her to go ballistic because of . . . the Starbucks Incident. (cue Jaws music)
Even her friends have a tough time trying to calm her down so she won't get carted off to the klink, until the man she hates more than fire comes in and tells her to go to town! Go ballistic! Get crazy! He'd rather see her be her own feisty self than broken and defeated, which is a knife to his heart.
What's she to do with that?
Before she can figure it out, he's swept her off to his gigantic yacht (she hates boats, and hates the water), complete with cat (she hates cats). . . . and the battle of the sexes is on, starting with Goat Yoga.
If you don't care for gusts of foul language and hilarious interruptions to sex (as well as plenty of successful sex) and women making a go of a stripper business, this isn't the story for you. But as the summer gets more sweltering and the news more grim, I found myself laughing so hard I had to page back and reread scenes.
It's very over the top (if it were more realistic I would have found the physical violence against her sleazy ex problematical at best) but as a sort of text version of a crazy romcom movie, it works like gangbusters.

Wow! Firecracker? Spit Fire? Raging B!tch? Fun? Sassy? Take no prisoners? - How does one even begin to describe Ariel? Probably all of the above. However you want to describe her, she is fun to read about! She is so busy trying to keep her 100mph life on track, that she is like a tornado through her own life, and her friends get caught into the vortex. It's a great read, with just enough twists and turns to make you root for her and Eric. Poor Eric, at least he has an idea of what he's getting into, and bless him, he loves her all the more for it. The book was well written and a very fun read, just be prepared for a heroine that you've never seen before.

This has been such a fun series! I love the reimagination of the princesses that Tara Sivec has brought us. I absolutely love this story. It's funny, it's romantic and it's super sexy too! Everything that I look for in a book.

Kiss the Girl is surprisingly my first Tara Sivec read. This is surprising, because I’m a sucker for romcoms and after reading KtG, I now know this author gives good romcom!
Kiss the Girl not only provides the laughs. It gives us look into the alternative world of a favorite cartoon princess, Ariel. A heroine who is strong and tough all by herself, but she’s been burned and broken by a man in the past. You can imagine the last thing she wants now is a man telling her what to do, or a man at all really. Insert the irritating but gorgeous, Eric when she’s going through a tough time. Somehow this beautiful man knows just how to get under her skin, and how to help her heal her heart without her even realizing it! Their story is funny, a bit angsty, and super steamy at some points.
Add in a cast of side characters that will keep you laughing and on your toes, and you’ve got a great romcom read.
This is the third book in a series, but I don’t feel that you have to read the others to understand this one. This book will spoil those a bit, so if you hate spoilers. I’d dive into those first. Do I plan to go back and read them now that I’ve read KtG? Yes. Yes I do!

The perfect end to what is one of my all time favourite rom com series. So full of Hilarious moments, witty banter and so much over the top rediculousness, this book had me laughing right from the very start. But in amongst the comedy was a story about empowering women and rebuilding self confidence after it has been cruelly stripped away.
I loved Ariel and her take no nonsense attitude, and fell a little more in love with Eric along the way. The cameos from the other Naughty Princesses and the men crazy enough to stand by their side made the book just that much better.
Absolutely loved this book but am sad to see the end of the series!

Ariel and her best friends Cindy and Belle are down in their luck so they start a princess stripping business. Ariel has really hit rock bottom, though, losing her home and antique shop. Luckily Eric rescues her.
This was a fun read. The author cleverly retells the characters stories, and incorporates every character from The Little Mermaid, as well as movie quotes and songs. It was funny and charming. I absolutely loved Eric, they were perfect together. The only thing was Ariel was almost too crazy-sauce for me...and foul mouthed beyond reason.
This is the third story, it stands on it’s own, but the other characters are featured throughout and each princess has her own epilogue at the end of this book.
Recommended for humor and craziness for those who loved The Little Mermaid.

AAAHHHHHH!!!!! I freaking love this series!!! Even though I love all three books, Ariel's book is my favorite! I devoured this book in one sitting.
Ariel is a tough woman with a soft heart. I completely related to her character and saw myself in her A LOT! Eric is a girls dream. Book boyfriend material all day.....Erica & Eric has a nice ring to it!;) HAHA
Kiss the Girl can be read a a standalone but why would you want to miss out of all the awesomeness of these characters in all 3 books! I highly recommend them all!

LOVED this series and am so sorry to see it end! Eric and Ariel's story was worth the wait and I think it was my favorite of the 3...but then I've said that about each of the books. Planning to read more from Tara Sivec

Kiss the Girl is another fantastic read in the Naughty Princesses Club series. This time we have Ariel's story, and whilst I loved Belle and Cindy's story this is the one I was waiting for.
Ariel has always been the feisty, foul mouthed, funny founding member of the club, this time she loses her house and the man she hates more than anyone Eric Sailor playboy millionaire comes to her rescue and offers her accommodation on one of his yachts.
The dialogue is sparkling, so many laugh out loud moments and finally we see Ariels vulnerability and learn who and what caused it, slowly with Eric's unconditional support she is strengthened by him and falls in love. There are high drama moments, passion and fun all adding up to a brilliant story.
Well done Tara Sivec a real winner, leaving this reader with a big smile on her face.
My thanks to net galley and publisher St Martins press for the opportunity to review this book.

Oh my god, I LOVED this book. It was laugh out loud funny and also sweet and emotional at the same time.
I absolutely loved Ariel's sass and attitude and thought Eric was perfect for her. I loved that they started out kind of as frenemies but were able to develop into so much more. He was an absolute knight in shining armor and his love and wholehearted acceptance of Ariel was downright swoon worthy.
I love the friendship of all the ladies in the book and the shenanigans they get themselves into. This whole series was fun, sassy and truly a must read!!!

Ariel a girl who loves antiques
Eric a wealthy man
Can he kiss the girl?!
Can these two be in the same world? Opposites attract!
Kiss the Girl is book 3 in the naughty princess club series. If I can give this more than 5 stars I would! There was romance, as well as humor some laugh out loud moments, moments that make you smile.
I floved this book and the other 2 books in this series~ I can't wait to get them in paperback! The covers are so pretty!
Some quotes that I liked are:
"Don't get your grandma panties all in a bunch. I'm pulling into Fairy tale lane as we speak."
"Stop undressing me with your eyes, it's making me hard."
"Your sarcasm and attitude is fun to watch. Honestly it's the highlight of my day, wondering what the hell will come out of that mouth of yours."
"I'm hot and charming and irresistible."
"I want to know what's important to you. I want to be apart of your world."

I enjoyed this so much that I read it twice! I’ve been looking forward to this book since the first one came out and I loved every minute of it. There are so many great parts, I highlighted like crazy. The first time I read it I was distracted because my 12 year old son was on his first movie date. Yeah, I needed to escape my reality because I was a hot mommy mess. No one will every be good enough for my baby boy!!! Like Ariel says, “It’s fine. I’M FINE.” But I digress. I loved the amazing banter between Ariel and Eric and I was giggling so much that my husband was making fun of me. So much giggling. I really loved this whole series and this was my favorite one. Oh, the epilogue was wonderful. It made me all happy-clappy!

Tara Sivec has taken the Naughty Princess Club to a whole new level and it was absolutely entertaining! Kiss the Girl is book #3 in the Naughty Princess series and is fantastic! I’ve been waiting for Ariel’s book since she opened her mouth in At the Stroke of Midnight and it was well worth the wait!
Ariel is the sassy, strong, confident, independent woman of the group...or so we thought. We find out very quickly that Ariel isn’t exactly who she portrays herself to be, she’s actually very unsure of herself.
Eric has been smitten with Ariel since she ever so nicely told him to F*&% off. Eric sees right thru her facade and is determined to make Ariel see her own self worth and build her back up to the strong woman she once was.
But with Ariel losing everything, a lying ex-husband and Eric’s evil mother, Eric will have a fight on his hands to help Ariel find her voice once again.
I honestly cannot say enough about this book! The banter between Ariel and Eric is priceless and their sexual chemistry?? My god...melt your panties right off your body hot. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that lap dance! The relationship between Ariel, Cindy and Belle was just as humorous and show what true friendship is all about!
Everything about this series is hilarious! I loved every single book and have to say that Ariel and Eric were the best, by far!! I highly suggest reading the first two books in the series before Kiss the Girl just because of the pure awesomeness that is Tara Sivec!

This is your LOL typical Tara Sivec book! Laughing the whole time as Ariel and Eric get their own book. I could not wait for this one, and it did not disappoint. The Naughty Princess Club was a brilliant idea and an empowering nod to women who make their own happily ever afters!
I am not sure which book in this series was my favorite. Every time I finish one of these Naughty Princess Club books, that one is my favorite one. Now that the series is over, I don't know what I am going to look forward too!

"Seeing you broken and hurting and sad is like having someone stick a fucking knife in my chest. I don't like it. So, if pissing you off removes that look from your face like your whole world is imploding and there's nothing you can do to stop it, good."
"I don't need love poems or candlelit dinners or a dozen roses. If you want to woo me, bring me to the largest flea market in twenty counties, with the biggest collection of antiques you've ever seen, which only comes around once every three years."
"If he can handle my crazy, looks like this fairy tale bullshit should be a piece of cake."
Man, oh man, have I been waiting for this book. I fell in love with Ariel from the moment I started The Naughty Princess Club Series. Her smart mouth kept me on my toes and I admired the devotion she had to her friends. I couldn't wait to get my hands on Kiss The Girl and see what Ariel's story had in store for us...
When we first meet up with Ariel, she's struggling. Her confidence has been taken away and she's struggling to make ends meet. And just when she thinks things couldn't possibly get any worse, she finds herself evicted from her house. She's determined to do things her way, but knows when to admit defeat. The last thing she wants to do is count on another man, but it turns out that Eric might be just what she needs. He may drive her crazy, but there is so much more to Eric than Ariel ever knew.....
Kiss The Girl was a total riot. I just loved Ariel's snarky attitude and could not wait to see what she said next. She really had no filter and didn't care what others thought. She is fierce and independent. But, she's just like the rest of us. She has fears and insecurities of her own and it will take a strong man to break down her sky high walls. And Eric...boy did he give Ariel a run for her money. She totally didn't see him coming. Eric is not only charming and flirty, but fiercely loyal and one of the sweetest guys you'll ever meet. He doesn't mind Ariel's crazy and isn't about to let her scare him away. I loved watching these two together. I loved their banter and interactions and could not wait to see how they would challenge one another next. And the sparks!! OMG! The Sparks! They were off the charts. The tension so thick, you just couldn't wait for these two to attack one another!
Overall, I really enjoyed this book! Kiss The Girl was fun, entertaining and just the right amount of sexy. Ariel and Eric's story was everything I was looking for and was totally worth the wait. If you're looking for a fun, laugh out loud romantic comedy with a fairytale twist, I highly recommend checking this book out.

I have adored every princess so far in this series. I just knew though, that Ariel was going to be my favorite! She’s crass and foul mouthed. She says exactly what she’s thinking and doesn’t care what others think of her. I love that about her! But we also discover that she’s not as tough and thick skinned as she acts. She has some personal things that she has harbored because of her douche ex husband. And Eric is just as funny and cool as I knew he would be. He is the perfect man for Ariel. He can roll with the punches and give as good as he gets. He’s precious! I truly have enjoyed every single book in this series! Tara is the queen of romcom and feels!

This is Kiss The Girl, book 3 in the Naughty Princess Club series, written by Tara Sivec. This book is about Ariel, the last single lady in the Naughty Princess trio. Ariel has always come off as a strong and tough woman. As a woman, we can all understand that she is only putting on a strong front to hide multitudes of insecurities. Eric is part owner of Charming’s Gentlemen’s club, which is where he met Ariel. There is a lot going on in this book and you will not want to miss a minute if it!! I would love more of the trios stories!
