A review by lizzuplans
Once Upon A Pumpkin Spice Latte by Sydney Strand
3.0
I love a royal romance, especially when it is set in a small town and there is a lot of mention of cute seasonal things.
Unfortunately this book did not do it for me.
The story was sweet, but dragged on a lot. Almost halfway through the story it felt as if nothing had really happened and this feeling did not motivate me to continue reading.
The Cinderella angle was not my favourite and while it was what attracted me to this book in the first place, the amount of pumpkin spice was too much– the late father’s recipe subplot fell flat for me.
I did like Hilda and Hart’s meeting as children and how their friendship developed, but I did not feel the romance. Perhaps because I was too distracted by all the secondary characters and their story lines.
Looooooved the cover. Very cosy!
I received an ARC of this book (thanks!) and these are my own opinions.
