SYNOPSIS
What happens when you mix an average American woman with a decidedly not average future King?
I can tell you from experience—a whole lot of complications.
You see, four months ago, my all-American sister, Kelsey, found out that she’s not actually my sister—she’s a princess of a country we’d never heard of. She begged me to come along when she was whisked off to her new palace, so here I am. An outsider who doesn’t fit in anywhere.
Now that she’s settled, I should go back to my exciting new career in New York. I absolutely should not stay in a country where I got shot (long story), where I suck so badly at the national sport that I accidentally murdered the symbol of the monarchy in front of half the country, and—oh yeah—where I can’t stop ogling Kelsey’s actual brother.
The Crown Prince.
The man who has to marry a very important princess. (not me)
The man who must create the next heir to the throne. (without me)
The man I absolutely can never be with. (remember that long story?)
The man who just gave me the best sex of my life…
Did I mention that it’s complicated?
MY REVIEW
Mallory has come to Moncriano with her sister, Kelsey. The sister who, as they both found out, is not her biological sister after all. But they're sisters at heart, so who better to help her sister transition to the life of a princess than her older sister? Even if Mallory has just now finally recuperated from being shot during the events of the last story? But Mallory is unsure of her life in Moncriano. She's living in the palace, being waited on by the royal staff, and yet she's not royalty herself. So she accepts a job and thinks to herself she can be happy here away from all she loves (except her sister of the heart). Then she meets the Crown Prince, the acting King, Kelsey's biological brother himself, Christian. And he's as gorgeous as they say, definitely the playboy they say, and she finally found something that is making her life a little better in Moncriano. But in the back of her mind, she knows absolutely nothing serious can come of their flirtation, as she's not only not of royal blood, she's a commoner, and an American to boot. And Christian is set to someday marry someone chosen by the council, someone of royal blood herself, someone deemed fit to help Christian's bloodline flourish. Will Christian buck tradition and choose his love over his duty? Or will Mallory have to live out her life by her sister's side, watching as Christian marries someone else and has the family with her that she cannot physically give him?

This is sweet, sexy royal insta-love fun. Christian and Mallory's witty snark, their insane chemistry, and their sped up love all make for an entertaining, steamy story. Nothing out of the box, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
