Download or read book My Australian Prince written by Elmie Yan and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11-19 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Australian Prince sets itself mainly in Western Australia's ruggedly beautiful and antique Kalgoorlie-Boulder, the enchanting Archipelago of the Recherche on the Southern Ocean, and the delicate splendour of Paris outskirts of antiquity. Alain James Goldenbough, endowed with magnetic handsomeness and intelligence, is born in 1960 into Western Australia's richest family. Their wealth emanates from the 1893 Gold Rush of the famed mining twin-towns of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. His famous colourful posy since the age of ten is the symbol of his high regard for women... and the New Mothers Paradise his brainchild. For his only love Elizabeth Sinclair, he reserves the red rose-posy and he leads them both to a vow of virginity. Together with Elizabeth, he is to face his two legacies - the only-child Goldenbough Australian ancestry and his maternal Montagne French heritage. Elizabeth must help him, but it seems that his heart that softens to women's needs will not know the mysteries beneath Elizabeth's crescent smile and lake-look aquamarine eyes. He will not know either the versatile schemes of his two rivaling grandfathers - Pop Sir William Goldenbough of Australia and Papy Vincent Montagne of France - nor the mysterious family in France that aims to destroy him. His two legacies will pound and crumble him to his limits, bringing him out to the extraordinary, away from the typical Australian laid-back personality. Spanned across three-and-a-half decades from 1960 to 1995, Alain's inimitable story will entertain and stir you, touch your emotions, and test your mentality.
