I'm a sucker for prince charming stories, so I fell hard for Falling for Charming. The characters are quite believable in a modern day sense, each of them with their own backstory, and the structure of the book lead well to the romance, the inevitable difficulties, and the happy ever after ending. A perfect fun read.

Okay

This was a distracting novel -- meaning it sufficiently distracted me from real life while I read it -- but the titles were so bizarre and the plot was rather formulaic. I am not sad I devoted the time, but I cannot really say I'd quickly recommend to others.

Sweet, charming romance. Girl meets boy. Boy neglects to mention he's a prince. The plot is a bit predictable but the characters were so charming, and the romance was sweet - surprising heat between the two main characters for not having any explicit scenes. 
The narrator was a good fit. 
Overall, very enjoyable!

This was sweet and innocent for more than a half of the book and then suddenly was nothing but sex.

Cute little story with a very Hallmark-y vibe to it. A little “too” Hallmark-y for my taste, but still enjoyable enough for me to want to to check out the rest of the series.

Will come back later to write a more detailed review.

A charming story that tells us romances with princes are not just meeting, falling in love, and happily ever after. It’s so true though, you always need to tell the full and complete truth—without withholding info!

I liked Jonas a heck of a lot more than I liked Hope. Dude messed up and was trying and she just shut down. I really felt like she needed a good therapist. Still, a fun story, if lacking in intrigue or major plot twists.

I was in the need for a book that was cute, sweet, and could whisk me away to some made up county with some made up royals. This did exactly that!

It follows Hope, a globetrotter trying to get away from her families scandalous past, and Jonas a prince 5th in line to the throne who would much rather spend his time as a wilderness ranged.

This was an instalove story which I'm usually not a huge fan of because I need a little more to grasp on to to really get behind a relationship. But after the original instant attraction (and some mishaps along the way) these characters did really get to know each other, which I liked.

I feel like this book could have been a little shorter, I found myself just kind of skimming toward the end because everything was being drug out too lons. And I thought that some of the story was much too surface level for me, I needed to see more of what was going on around these two. And for a book that claims to be part of a royal weddings series, I needed WAY more royal shenanigans.

Overall, a cute story, but not my absolute favorite
