A review by day_fisher
American Royals by Katharine McGee

emotional lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

2.0

Based on an interesting premise: what if America had a rPeigning monarchy? In order of my preference here's all the tropes I saw in this one: best friend's brother, Bodyguard romance, different worlds, crazy ex girlfriend, relationship of obligations/altar diplomacy, secret relationship. So yea there was a lot going on here and it read like a soap. I found the characters were a little one dimensional as well but it was mostly fun to read until it wasn't and I hated the end.
