I wanted to love this book so badly, but how could I with this ending, everything what happens in the first book was forgotten.
Why the writer made me attached to some relations between people just to punch me in a gut and than push me down the stairs??
I gave 3 stars because I actually enjoyed reading this, it’s reads super fast and it reminders me of a gossip girl TV show (which is my big love to this day).

And how I mean HOW after doing such horrible things like Daphne did (drugged a person, lie, cause the breakdown of two relationships, sell information to the press, blackmail the head of the state etc) she got a happy ending? And she never admitted her actions and was not charged with the consequences!?!?!?

I liked this book a lot more than the first book. I loved seeing the development of the characters. I think that some of the plot points caused unnecessary drama. I was also super frustrated with

I love this series so much.

It's just so cute and fluffy and feel-good. Like yes, there are stakes to some things and it can be sad and angering at times but it is beautiful and a complete and total comfort read.

This is the second book in a romance series of the lives of the American Royals (literally.) This is a a speculative fiction piece about what the American Royal family would be like if Washington was crowned as a monarch.

In this book, Nina is moving on from Jeff and finding a new happiness with a man who truly gets her, Jeff's best friend. Needless to say, our dear Jeffery is not too contented with this. How could he find out? Oh yes. Our dear maniacal Daphne. Is Daphne finally getting a conscious? Probably not.

Let's breifly discuss Daphne who is now totally taking the place of one of my favourite antagonists. She's smart. conniving, and a complete and utter dick. She is an awful person and I am trying to convince no one of anything else, but damn is she a well written villain.

Onto SAM. Sam get's herself into a fake relationship to make the future King Consort jealous. But when do fake romances really go as planned? (no seriously, please tell me a book where this happens. I don't think it exists.)

Jeffery is an idiot. A stubborn idiot. And I love how that's a constant in the series thus far.

Finally of course, Beatrice, our queen. She is stepping into her role as queen well, despite what got her there. But there is still a lot of people who don't want to see a woman rule, some closer than one might think. As for her romance, it doesn't matter. Bea's relationship is oddly the only one that really doesn't matter one way or the other. But her character is growing on me.
