Summary: Once Upon A Time
Comment: J. Randy Taraborrelli has written a superb account of the lives of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier: Their courtship, the wedding, regrets and tribulations; and, finally, the tragic death of the princess. It is a compelling 'hard-to-put-down' read.

Rating: 3
Summary: Once Upon A Time: Behind The Fairy Tale of Princess Grace
Comment: This shows the more human side of royalty, and the troubled times of Princess Grace. At times the book got a little detailed on events and places, but it was still a very interesting read. I would definately recommend this book if you are interested in the Rainier family or if you enjoy a good autobiography.

Rating: 3
Summary: A Bird In A Cage
Comment: Looking back to when I visited Monaco as a teen and toured the Pink Palace grounds, I remember hearing about what a fairytale life this American woman was having living as the Princess of Monaco. Well, this book put all those beliefs to rest. The late Grace Kelly may have been an American Princess, but happy ever after was not part of the deal. Princess Grace married Prince Rainier of Monaco merely to make her father proud. Supposedly, the "ugly duckling" of the family, Grace Kelly sought refuge in the movies by becoming an actress. Part publicity stunt and part need for attention Grace married a man she barely even knew. The few times the two were together prior to marrying they were never alone. Grace became trapped in life that didn't provide an outlet such as her acting, the love she was always seeking or the happiness that seem to escape her. Her greatest solace was her three children although three others died do to miscarriage. Princess Grace was beautiful and elegant, but very much a bird in a cage.
