I thought this book was pretty good but I wanted more time spent on developing the romance between Oliver and Callum.
It was a cute story but I wasn't obsessed with it the way I have been with other romance books.

This is a cross between Boyfriend Material and Red, White, and Royal Blue. What happens when Callum, a prince, raised out of the spot light in California becomes the heir to the British throne in the blink of an eye? Well he's a mess. Then he meets Oliver, the prime minister. This is a slow burn of a romance. With Callum possibly being neurodivergent and demisexual. Oliver is gay and divorced. They develop a friendship that turns into more. I will say this is mid-spicy when it comes to romance. Little to no fade to black when it comes to spicy stuff.
The only thing I didn't like was the ending. It was too dramatic for me, but the epilogue makes up for it.
