Gwen and Art Are Not in Love by Lex Croucher

5.0

This YA romcom was pitched as Heartstopper meets a knights tale- and it’s the most fitting description. Our Main characters are: Gwen, the princess to the English throne and younger sister to the heir Gabriel. Her betrothed is Art, selected at birth bc of his famous ancestor King Arthur. Gwen thinks there’s only one problem, they hate each other. After discovering Art kissing a stable boy it turns out there might be two problems. Art likes men, and Gwen is wrestling with her feelings for the talented Knight Lady Leclair. They realize they might be better allies than enemies to help each-other get what they want.

I loved this twist on fake dating! Art and Gwen are such perfect opposites, the banter in every single scene is absolutely amazing. Not to mention the amount of heart and humor this book contains. The characters were all so well written and you could sense all of their individual battles and character arcs. Not to mention it was just so fun! It being set in medieval England was the icing on the cake. Definitely worth a read.
