Predictable with a lot of name dropping. But it makes a good light read. If you've been looking for a book in the style of Netflix's A Christmas Prince, this is it.

I really enjoyed this book! The romance between Clementine and Christian (while a little too love at first sightish for me) was incredibly sweet and I loved watching them grow as a couple. This one gave me strong The Royal We Vibes just with the fact that we really see Clementine try and work her way into the royal world and finding her place there even though she's a commoner.

I loved Jillian's character! It was such a fun side storyline and I loved how she supported Clementine and Christian.

If you're looking for fun royal romance this is a quick read that's easy to get pulled into

This was such a cute and fun royal romance. It reminded me a bit of The Prince & Me only with an updated twist. I found the characters to be complex and their relationship, while a bit rushed, to be believable.

I like how both Christian and Clementine are suffering under similar feelings, though in vastly different circumstances. They relate to each other that way and it's easier for them both to treat each other as just a normal person. I also like how Clementine is so passionate about her work and how Christian is so driven to find something to give him purpose.

I was very drawn to Liz in the book and was excited to see that she gets her own book in the 2nd volume of this series.

I hadn't read this author before, but I was very pleased!
