A review by the_ya_assassin
Truly Madly Royally by Debbie Rigaud

4.0

I received an ARC copy at YALL Fest 2019.

Ohmygod! This book was absolutely amazing!

The characters were developed and cool, especially Prince Owen who is swoon-worthy. Zora was headstrong, a leader, and a go-getter. I applaud Debbie Rigaud's incorporation of African history into the book. I loved the tension between Zora's mother and bio-father.

The only thing that was a let down for me was the beginning - I don't think that after only a few conversations that she would start to have fluttery feelings for him. Their relationship felt too fast and a little underdeveloped. Don't get me wrong, I loved it, but it was just missing something for me.
