Oooh I loveeeed this. Nya and Johan are such lovely, complex characters who also are so kind to each other. 

I’ve read a fake dating romance before, but this one did a good job zigging when another book would zag. So many times when a “why didn’t they just talk!!?” Moment could happen and yet it didn’t! And it worked! 

I remember trying to read A Princess in Theory years ago and I couldn’t get into it. I’m gonna retry now though because I feel attached to this world and its characters.

I really liked the trope of playboy with a heart of gold and the side character of Jojo’s nonbinary sibling. Nya is one of my favorite characters of the series, too, and I’m glad she got her own book, and we got to follow her as she wrestled with her feelings about her abusive father.

Not due to the narrator but I can't listen to this - I'd have an easier time reading than listening, I can't go on with it

Once again Cole writes some kickass characters who (despite all the hell they've endured) are able to find themselves and find a place where they truly belong. A strong FMC who spent her entire life being told she's too weak and meek to do anything, a playboy MMC who really is just doing everything he can to protect his little brother from the spotlight and truly has a secret heart of gold! Add in some complications of family and societal pressures and you've got yourself a wonderful read!
