A review by verumsolum
Once Upon a Princess by Harper Bliss, Clare Lydon

4.5

This was a really good book… which left me caught between tropes. Because one trope was the attraction that made me pick this book up (well, that, and having enjoyed books from both co-authors, as well as other books they'd co-written together, I believe). But… I also got impatient with the another trope in this book. There were a few days where I was reading much less than usual from this book because it was annoying me. (If you get annoyed and don't like when you want to yell at characters to "Just tell her, already," this might not be the book for you. But…)

But… I understand that conflict makes books interesting, even though it's not what I come to romance for. So I persevered. And… I'm glad I did. As always, the authors made me love their characters too much, leaving me wanting more (though the final chapter made a nice resolution… other authors sometimes leave me feeling like I went through the annoying parts of the conflict and then got hardly any resolution… I don't want all of the HEA to be from my head; make sure to show me some before you leave me to other books)
