Not my type of book. I enjoyed the historical background and the political discussions. The romance was so sweet that I fell in love with both Henry and Alex. I have to admit that I don't usually read romance because it feels too cheesy and I end up feeling overwhelmed, but I liked how this romance was developed. The way Alex and Henry got to know each other through social events, emails, and chats felt genuine. I enjoyed the feeling that this was something actually happening in real life. Totally worth the read and I might give romantic comedy novels another shot.
