This was a cute book, though I can't say it was incredibly well-written. Nothing awful, but it wasn't fantastic either. This book had several short steamy scenes and a few lines that were so cheesy they made me laugh out loud. If you're looking for the equivalent of watching shows like "Too Hot To Handle", this is a book that will definitely scratch that itch, just don't take it too seriously, and it's a lot of fun.

Royal love stories can be pretty hit or miss for me, but I enjoyed this one quite a bit! The lovely British narration by Shane East sure didn't hurt, but the story itself was fun and cute as well.
