Ohhhh gawwwwddd. This book was so cheesy and just not my cuppa... I really couldn’t relate to the characters as I felt that they weren’t fleshed out in order for them to fall in love. I didn’t buy their love story because I didn’t know who they were individually and together.

I skipped over so many scenes because I couldn’t buy in and that’s sad because this book had such a good premise.

I might continue on and read the second and the third since those men piqued my interest but we will see. If they have insta love like this one then you can count me out ! -_-

Whenever you have a story that makes you cringe from how uncomfortable the scene is, you know you’ve got a winner. I was so invested in their love story, so I was laughing and cringing (ie. Chopin scene) 😂 I know the review started off sounding like something bad, but this book was by far my favorite that I’ve read by Karina. Who doesn’t want to meet and fall for a Prince? It was a whirlwind fairytale and I’m sad it’s over. Great read and I’m looking forward to what’s next!

I received an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. Review and blog tour can be found on *Milky Way of Books*

One delightful, emotional and pretty much amazing story from Karina Halle! She made my week with this book since I was very sick and wanted something good to get me through the tissues and the running nose...and the busted ear.

Maggie's and Viktor's stories were sad and very aching. I believe that Maggie deserves a statue for all her efforts to keep he family together. I loved little Callum and Pike and even April despite the 'thing' she did. And Viktor? Yum...just yum!

Following Karina's Instagram was a very agonizing waiting seeing all these amazing pictures! And I think that there is a chance for more stories on the secondary characters in the book!
I totally recommend it!

Although I have enjoyed other books in this series, this one didn’t work for me. I felt empathy for Maggie’s situation but she was a flat character. Viktor was a cliche.
It was not an awful book but I will not remember the characters.

I LOVED this book! Emotional, funny, heart-warming, sexy and romantic- this was a fantastic story! The writing was exceptional- I was hooked from the prologue and didn’t want to put this down. A top pick of 2018! Highly recommend!
