A Hallmark movie in a book. A literal made up country in the Alps that the royals can wander around the charming village down the lane from their palace. The main characters have such easy chemistry, and the third act break-up is slight mis-communication but definitely warranted. Very very slow burn, they don't kiss until over halfway through the book. He makes life fun and defintiely uses his riches to woo the girl. Treats her like a princess. It's adorable. Also her dog's name is Max and the boys name is Max and it's wonderfully ridiculous.
