The Review

The Title/Cover Draw:

  • Book number 2 in the Crown Jewel Series (of 3 series set in Avonia). I think I have 1 more book in each series to read!

💜 What I liked:

  • Following the journey of Tessa and Arthur, who seem to be in love so much that they have to get married sooner. But of course, they have some obstacles; the class system, plotting queen wanna-bes, and Twitter. There are some really cute twists here. 

😱 What I didn’t like:

  • I always find something to love in these books and as a contemporary romance, I am not in it for the shock value or twists. But I would like to see a few more unexpected nuggets (although the Twitter battle is pretty cool). 

💁‍♀️ The Characters:

  • Tess and Arthur are trying to plan a wedding. Will they be successful?

🚦 My face at the end: 😊

💭 5 Reasons to Read:

  • The characters are unique and connectable
  • It’s a quick and easy read
  • The situations aren’t cringe-worthy
  • Lots of books in the universe
  • Who doesn’t love books about royalty?

I voluntarily read and reviewed a copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. 

📘 Summary:

When most girls get engaged, at most they face a disapproving mother-in-law, but in Tessa Sharpe’s case, it’s a disapproving nation. No one in the tiny kingdom of Avonia wants the former anti-royal blogger to wed Prince Arthur. The anti-royals haven’t forgiven her for abandoning ship and swimming over to the Prince’s yacht, and the royal watchers won’t ever forget all the horrible things she wrote about their beloved Royal Family.

Up against all odds, Tessa has only six months to prove herself worthy of the title of Princess. Her nasty father-in-law is going to throw every obstacle in her way, including the beautiful, poised, and highly accomplished Lady Doctor Brooke Beddingfield. But Tessa is determined to make this work and keep her fledgling career as a reporter intact.

Will Tessa manage to fight her way down the aisle and find her Prince Charming waiting? Or will one of them succumb to mounting pressure and run the other way before they can say I do?
