I think I've been swept up in Royal Fever since the coronation last weekend, so much so that this is my second royal book in a week!
Evan is the illegitimate child of King Alexander. The world doesn't know about her but she's turning 18 in 25 days and is hoping to return to life with her Mum. However, things don't always go the way you think. Evan ends up at Windsor castle, an American amongst all the pomp of the royal family. Unfortunately Evan gets tied up in scandals, gossip, murder and betrayal.
I really enjoyed this - I wasn't a fan of Evan but she does grow on you and what she went through was horrific. It's quite far fetched but it did throw me into life at Windsor Castle and I felt like I was there. I didn't know this was a series and I'll be looking out for book 2.
Look out for trigger warnings!
