I created a BookSirens account and this book immediately caught my eye: a royal romance, a hidden relationship, fish out of water, mutual pining, funny, an American and a Brit. But I was worried. I loved Red, White, and Royal Blue, and have read several books described as "the next RWRB" that... weren't. This, however, is. It's funny, but very touching. There's mutual pining and UST, but the author leans into that trope and really works it. If you want a well-written, trope-filled, funny book where a fish out of water learns to be who he was born to be, give this a try.

Thank you to Jax Calder and BookSirens for the eARC! This review is my own.
