Blurb

 

“She didn’t believe in fairy tales… until she fell for a prince.”

 

Single mother, Leia Lawrence didn’t have a storybook childhood. Now? Dating… men…? She’d rather stay in her tower of solitude.

 

Until her path crosses with the heir to the British throne.

 

He should be the bad boy the press portray him as.

 

He isn’t.

 

He should be as arrogant as the rich elites she despises.

 

He isn’t

 

He should be easy to walk away from.

 

Oh, boy, he isn’t.

 

Oliver is nothing like the man she expects. Smart, funny and caring, he could push through every defence she has in place.

 

But one passing moment could change everything. It could bring the press to her door and uncover secrets she thinks are long dead.

 

What will he be willing to do to protect her?

 

She has nowhere left to turn, except to her prince.

 

 

The only thing she can do is wait and see if he’ll choose to protect his country… or her…

My ARC Review:

This was my first read by Anna, something about the blurb for this book had me excited to read this, which is quite a feat in itself as the royal trope as a rule does nothing for me, once you’ve read one you’ve read them all, they all seem to be the same….. but something about this one really caught my eye….. and OH MY GOODNESS, I was not expecting this!!!!

I can’t remember the last time a story like this completely blindsided me, I mean totally….. I was so engrossed in the story, so invested in the characters and what was happening in their life (and so completely oblivious as to anything else happening in mine) that I just read and read and read, until I had finished, completely and utterly blown away and just well gobsmacked and stuck for words really. In fact I had to do a complete re-read the following day, I just couldn’t get enough!!! That has never happened to me yet in my reading lifetime, I have never had to do a re-read, so this was a epic read for me!!

It’s not your average Prince Charming read, it truly is a unique type of royal read, so very real in today’s society you can just picture it happening. The characters will just grab those heartstrings and do not let go, I loved them with a passion. But it’s not just the immersive story line, it’s the banter and the wit along with characters who you will fall in love with permanently.

Leia is our girl and what a character she is…. a single mum, struggling to bring up her 6 yr old daughter in London, working for a charity that stepped in and helped her when she needed it. She has had a bad life to start with, an unplanned teenage pregnancy and no one to turn to. She cares about others to a fault really, wanting to help those in similar situations to what she was in herself. Her personality is rather unique… outspoken, honest and funny, her dress sense being as unique as her personality. Her whole world revolves around her daughter, she has never had a relationship and doesn’t plan on doing so, always putting her daughter first. For everything she has been through in her short amount of years she is a remarkably strong and beautiful character, seeing the world in a very down to earth light, no frills required.

Prince Oliver, heir to the throne, well what can I say about him….. what an absolute hero this guy is…. charming, sweet, gorgeous, just yum!!! He’s been written as a very down to earth character, very much in the now without the associated snobbery that you would normally get with a character in this role. He is just about to turn 30 and is looking for a charity to make his, something that he can really care about and really get his teeth into. The charity where Leia works is where he ends up, and where their romance begins….

Leia turns out to be the opposite of everything Oliver is used to, which is totally refreshing for him, and gives him a completely new outlook on life really. Leia isn’t out to impress, she tells him as it is, no airs and graces, no sucking up… in fact she does her best to avoid him at all costs, unless it’s to give him her unique outlook on life, before she is usually dashing off to get her daughter. Oliver is more than intrigued by her, she gets under his skin and he ends up letting his guard down with her whilst in public…..

This is not an insta love romance, it is a slow burn, but it is totally compelling. As the romance grows you can see just how good a match they would be, even though they are complete opposites of each other. I really was cheering them on and hoping that things would go well. Emotionally it really did pull at my heartstrings in plenty of places, reducing me to tears in a few, laughing and swooning in other places, and feeling my ovaries explode in others!!! I have to say I do feel for Leia and everything she goes through with the press and how they reported on her, I got really angry with them and am quite glad not have to put up with anything like that in my life!!

This book was just so much more than I expected it to be….. this has to be my top read of 2019 so far, it is that good, and so completely unexpected!!!! The topics it covers are very much in the news today and hard hard hitting and deep. You really do get carried along on their ride in this fabulous fairytale romance feeling all the highs and lows along the way. Completely and utterly enthralling, breathtaking, heartbreaking, but full of hope that everything will turn out to be ok.

I simply can’t wait for book 2 to find out how everything turns out for them. 5 stars are not enough for this one, I can’t recommend it highly enough, not to be missed at any cost.
