About book The Playboy Prince (Cordina #3) (1994)

Bennett si pangeran playboy datang...Setiap keluarga biasanya punya anak yang sifat dan perilakunya paling berbeda dari yang lain. Terkadang jadi yang paling baik, tapi bisa juga jadi yang paling bandel alias nakal. Di keluarga kerajaan Cordina, Bennett-lah yang paling berbeda. Pengeran yang paling tak bisa diharapkan, sulit menyimpan rahasia, playboy, tidak pernah serius dan paling senang bermain dengan kuda.Tapi itu semua hanya pencitraan Bennett kok.Kan Alex sebagai putra mahkota sudah tampil sempuran layaknya calon raja. Gabriella sebagai anak pertama dan pengganti sosok ratu (ibu mereka) yang telah meninggal pun mampu menjalankan tugasnya dengan baik. Acara-acara amal untuk kemanusiaan yang digalang Gabriella selalu sukses. Nah, sebagai anak paling akhir Bennett nyaris tak mendapat sorot media massa keculai ia melakukan sesuatu yang berbeda dan fenomenal. Maka jadilah ia si pangeran playboy yang tertarik pada wanita yang jauh lebih berumur diatasnya.Dibalik sosoknya yang glamour Bennett sebenarnya seorang pangeran yang murah hati dan peduli. Ia berjuang habis-habisan di depan dewan demi bisa meloloskan idenya membangun ruangan khusus untuk menampilkan karya anak-anak di museum nasional tanpa bantuan ayahnya. Saat keamanan keluarganya terancam oleh kehadiran teroris Deboque insting melindungi Bennett bangkit. Ia memaksa mengikuti semua rapat-rapat tertutup di istana hingga larut malam, agar mengerti dan tahu segala rencana pengamanan terhadap keluarganya. Dan disanalah ia bertemu dengan Lady Hannah Rothchild.Hannah hadir disana sebagai mata-mata. Selama ini ia selalu sukses menyusup ke organisasi mana saja di seluruh dunia termasuk ke dalam anggota kerajaan.Kesuksesannya itu juga disebabkan oleh kepandaiannya membagi antara urusan pekerjaan dan urusan pribadi. Kali ini ia goyah. Bennett mampu mengusik pikirannya dengan perilaku santun dan penuh perhatiannya yang tak sekedar basa-basi.Hannah meragu. Jika ia membalas cinta Bennett maka kehadirannya sebagai mata-mata di istana Cordina bisa terancam. Tapi jika iatak membalas cinta Bennett, ia butuh waktu lama untuk menyembuhkan patah hatinya.Bennett... Bennett... Bennett... Saya suka pada karakternya yang diam-diam menghanyutkan itu. Tampil ala badboy di keluarga kerajaan Cordina tapi tanpa ada yang tahu ia berjuang demi anak-anak yang bahkan tak dikenalnya. Tapi, kisah mereka kurang menarik bagi saya. Terlalu datar bagi dua karakter yang kuat seperti Bennett dan Hannah.Di dua seri sebelumnya saya selalu naksir pada cover terbitan Alnari. Namun untuk yang ini, penerbit tersebut sepertinya belum menerjemahkannya ke dalam bahasa Serbia, sehingga tidak ada cover yang bisa ditaksir. Dari 15 edisi buku in saya memilih cover terbitan dalam bahasa Jerman. Oh... buku ini juga telah dialihbahasakan dalam bahasa Indonesia tahun 2002 dengan judul saduran "Pangeran Playboy". @ Halmahera07052013

5 stars for the ROYAL RAKE.His Royal Highness Bennet de Cordina, second in line to the throne, is every bit the PLAYBOY PRINCE the media has termed him to be. He is arrogant, confident and comfortable with his title. He has enjoyed his share of beauty and scandals and is not ashamed to admit that. Women and charm come easily to him. But that doesn't mean he love his country any less than Alexander, his elder brother and heir to the throne. It doesn't mean he takes his responsibilities any less seriously than Alex. He doesn't worry about Deboque, the terrorist who has harmed his family before and still waiting to strike again.All of that is hidden under his careless attitude and charming personality. He meets Lady Hannah Rothchild in his father's office a shy, slim and neat british woman whose attractive in quiet way. Not his usual type. So why does he feel theres passion under her very proper attire, why does he feel his heart stir when he hears her laugh, why is he falling in love with one woman whom he least expected to fall for. She is a mystery and he intends to solve it.Hannah is not what Bennet thinks her to be. She is an undercover agent, working for the royal family, to eliminate the danger who has been threatening their lives from last 14 years. To end Deboque, once and for all. The success of the mission lies in the secrecy and she cant tell Bennet who she is, without jeopardising the mission or endangering his life. So will they find their own fairy tale ending? Is their love strong enough to withstand this storm?Will Hannah get her own Prince Charming? Will Bennet trust Hannah after learning the truth of who she is? :-)And lastly the royal prince charming... :)

The Playboy Prince Harlequin Books S.A.; 1987, pp. 247, $7.99Nora Roberts ISBN-13: 9780373510399 Lady Hannah Rothchild is an ISS agent. She is pretending to work for Deboque, the enemy of the Cordina’s Royal Family. So for him, she has to pretend to be friendly with Eve, Prince Alexander’s wife, so that she can be in the palace. King Armand, Reeve, and some others knows of her true identity. Hannah is to get close to Deboque so that she can tell him false information and then help the others destroy his organization. But something happens that wasn’t suppose to happen, Prince Bennett is drawn to Hannah and her to him. She must show no emotion or she can ruin the plan that was planned out for 2 years. Nora Roberts is the author of The Playboy Prince. The problem Hannah has to face is lying to the people that she’s starting to care about. She feels bad lying to Eve and Bennett because Eve is starting to become a friend and she’s starting to fall in love with Bennett. The thing is that she can’t risk having them know who she really is because it’s her job. Once she Deboque’s organization collapse, she is to leave Cordina and return to her home. Deboque wants to have everybody in the Cordina’s Royal Family killed and he will do anything to achieve it. He kidnapped King Armand’s daughter, Princess Gabriella, and even bombed a place that he thought King Armand would be but King Armand had a change of plan and Deboque killed other innocent people. As I was reading the first couple of chapters, I was going to stop reading because it was kind of boring. If I hadn’t reread the blurb and read ahead, I probability wouldn’t have known how good this book was. There were so many actions towards the middle of the story. I prefer to read books with action because it gets me excited. I would recommend girls/women who enjoys reading books with kings/princes/princesses and actions (bombs/guns). Reading this book made me realized that being a royal is all that fun because there could always be someone out there that would do anything to see you gone. But there are always people who will do whatever they can, even if they have to risk their own life, to save them.

This might be the first one star rating I've ever given a Nora Roberts novel, because normally I adore her. At first, I really enjoyed it. The characters, world, and plot were all fleshed out and interesting.As I got to know the characters more, however, things got a little creepy. Namely, Bennet comes off as a major creeper. Yes, I suppose Hannah is putting on an act, and that her prim-and-proper thing is merely a facade. I got as far as the scene where he cornered her in the ballroom before I got too sick to continue. At one point, she says "actually, you're making me uncomfortable" and he responds with "good. I want to make you uncomfortable." Boundaries? Hello? The second time they meet, he walks right through their personal bubble and kisses her "because he wants to figure something out." Nooooope. I had red flags going off all over the place. I understand that she responded internally with "hubba hubba, I want to bang this fella" but she didn't say it outwardly, and despite his playboy reputation, Bennet should have picked up on the "nope, she's not interested" and at least slowed down his approach. Or not been a total creeper dick.Couldn't finish it. I got it as part of a twofer though, so I am going to read Camilla's story. Thusfar, it's going better.

Gw udh re-read novel ini lebih dari 5x dan tiap kali membaca novel ini selalu berakhir sama yaitu perasaan sangat suka. Nora Roberts benar2 apik mengemas karakter heroine dalam mengimbangi si hero.Hannah, Lady of Rotchild, merupakan agen ISS yg berpenampilan sederhana; kaku; dingin; cerdas; sangat pendiam&lebih suka menyendiri. Pangeran Bennet, putra ke dua dari Kerajaan Cordina, yang digambarkan sebagai pangeran yg senang berhura-hura, tdk mengerti mengapa sosok Hannah bisa membuat dirinya tertarik&tergugah. Interaksi antara hero dan heroine ini sangat dinamis dimana satu sisi Hannah hrs berjuang utk menolak pesona Bennet agar tetap fokus dlm tugas rahasiannya& Bennet tdk mengenal kata menyerah trs mengejar Hannah dalam segala hal.Gw pengen banget si Hannah di kasih satu sesi berinteraksi dengan ke-2 anjing Benner yaitu Boris dan Natasha sama bermain lagi dengan Pangeran kecil Dorian..itu slh satu adegan favorite gw di buku ini...Sayang sekali bahwa ada pengkhianatan yg tak terelakkan antara Hannah dan Bennet..lalu bagaimana dengan Deboque?Silahkan dibaca novelnya
