For readers who have enjoyed The Princess Diaries books by Meg Cabot, you’ll be excited to hear that Princess Mia Thermopolis has finally penned that romance novel she always talked about wanting to do in the Princess Diaries books.
That book is called Ransom My Heart and she got a little help from NYT Bestselling author, Meg Cabot. Something that’s extremely cool about this book is that all proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Greenpeace.
How cool is that?
I think it’s pretty snazzy and am looking forward to reading and reviewing this book here on Book Binge.
Will anyone be reading this book? Is anyone interested in reading a historical novel penned by Meg Cabot Princess Mia? Has anyone tried any of Meg Cabot historical novels (which she has written under the name Patricia Cabot)?
Here’s what I could find out about the book, from a press release I got from Harper Collins:
Mia Thermopolis, Princess of Genovia and star of Meg Cabot’s insanely popular #1 New York Times bestselling Princess Diaries books, has “penned” her first historical romance novel . . . with help from Meg Cabot
He’s a tall, handsome knight with a secret. She’s an adventurous beauty with more than a few secrets of her own. Finnula needs money for her sister’s dowry, and fast. Hugo Fitzstephen, returning home to England from the Crusades with saddlebags of jewels, has money, and lots of it. What could be simpler than to kidnap him and hold him for ransom?
Well, for starters, Finnula could make the terrible mistake of falling in love with her hostage.
Princess Mia Thermopolis, Meg Cabot’s most beloved character, has always been an outspoken animal-rights activist and committed environmentalist. In keeping with Mia’s true spirit, Meg will be donating her advance to Greenpeace.
Woot! Bring on the Meg Cabotness, I heart her books so hot dang much so I can’t wait to dig into this one!
This book is available from Avon A. You can buy it .
I haven’t read any books by Meg Cabot. Are there any particularly good ones I should check out first?
I haven’t read any of Cabot’s historicals but, I have read the first 7 or 8 books in the Princess Diaries series. All fun reads. I definitely want to check out Ransom My Heart, should be very interesting.
Rowena, while I love a hot and steamy book I very much enjoy reading fun chick lits. Some days, only good light reads can pull me out of a funk…I’m going to look into these titles. Thank you!!
Tabitha,
I should warn you that Meg Cabot writes more chick lit books that is more light and fun then hot and steamy.
My favorite adult books by her are The Boy Next Door, Boy Meets Girl and Every Boy’s Got One oh and She Went All The Way. All great books!
Anna,
It should definitely be a fun read for sure.
I love, love, love Meg Cabot’s books and can’t wait to read Ransom My Heart and Princess Diaries 10: Forever Princess. I hope Mia ends up with Michael.
The only historical romance book by Cabot that I’ve read is Educating Caroline, which I enjoyed.

I haven’t read the book yet but I most definitely will because I LOVE Meg Cabot’s books! They are amazing!
