I truly loved this series. The characters were lovable and hate-able and I loved all their intertwined stories, plots, and developments. What a whirlwind of a ride and final book in the series. I love Nina and Jamie together, I think they are so cute and he’s very good for her. I would hope that even being a crown prince would be easier than the prince of America and honestly I think I’m team Jamie. I do feel like nina and Jeff are destined for each other but I also loved all her insight on them being together because they are each others pasts and childhoods and that she needed someone else as an adult for her future. I like that the door is open for them to at least be friends, and if they are right fir each other then they’ll end up together in the suspended future of the book world.
Daphne got such an amazing ending and I know she will be incredible as second hand if France. I truly believe she can help Louise and Alexei both rule while also being married. I LOVE that she and Nina were finally able to talk and work everything out. They need each other as friends and I’m so happy they got that ending.
Sam and Marshall getting to be together also makes me very happy, and her gutsy decision to not take back her titles and pursue law school maybe is so fitting to me. She’s a free spirit and I’m glad she’s not letting herself be limited by her birthright anymore.
Beatrice remains so wonderful and wholesome. Teddy is my favorite and I’m so glad she fell in love with him again. Her coronation and their surprise wedding were perfect and I love the strength she gained through weakness. The memory loss was rough but watching her accept that she may ever get it back and that she could still be an amazing ruler without it was great.
The story twists were fairly predictable and I figured most of them out but I don’t see that as a negative. These books are lighthearted and fun to read. They’re easy and engaging and I don’t need them to be dark and twisty, especially the last book. So I was very happy with this read and feel like everyone got a happy ending that I like.

I love this quote because I feel like it perfectly encapsulates this book series. Setting things on fire just to watch them burn seems to be a favorite past time of most of these characters…
I read the first book over two years ago and what a ride this series has taken me on! I love all of these characters, even if half of them make choice that make me want to make me scream! Each of the four main girls is so unique and I’ve loved following them on their journey over the past four books.
I take notes for all of the books I read to see my reactions and I think that I took more notes for this book than I ever have before! It’s over 5,000 words, just reacting to this book! If that doesn’t say something about how much I enjoyed this book, I don’t know what does!
I think this was my favorite book of the series, because it was such a great wrap up! I was really nervous to read this because of how Rivals ended (which left me staring at the last page for a good twenty minutes), but this book exceeded my expectations AND didn’t break my heart like the last one did!
The characters are all insane and usually very dumb and I love that for them! They will live in my heart and I hope that Katharine McGee decided to revisit this royal America again soon!
Thank you to NetGalley, Random House, and Katharine McGee for providing me access to this book.
