The Wrong Prince Charming by Holly Renee
4.0
My first thought when I read the blurb was, is this going to be menage? A love triangle? Well, I'm not gonna answer because I want you to find out for yourself the beauty, angst, and drama of this book.
The Wrong Prince Charming hooked me with its blurb and my, that cover. The book lived up to my expectations. The development of Maddy and Easton's relationship was realistic. It has the delicious forbidden element that I've been gobbling up lately. And let's not forget the hot, hunky bestfriend, Theo. His relationship with Maddy is frustrating AF coz dude, friend zone! Since it is told on Maddy's POV only, we only have her reason for not crossing the line of friendship. Best friends since their childhood days, so I get that Maddy is a bit hesitant and the fear that she might lose his friendship should they take things far.
I love Easton's character because he gave Maddy the inspiration to pursue her dreams. While Theo is a wonderful best friend to her but has his own reasons and plans that involves a future with Maddy. For real, I wouldn't want to be in Maddy's position. Again. I've been in this almost the same situation and it really sucks. It is hard to feel something to your bestfriend and not act on it, and then fall for another guy at the same time. Who would you choose? Should you wait for the bestfriend to love you back or go ahead and be happy with another guy you're falling already?
As my first ever read from this author, I've enjoyed reading The Wrong Prince Charming and it is aptly titled. I'm pretty sure some of us, myself included, would be able to relate in a way to this story. It is something that is inevitable, a part of life, and the reason I've connected with this book. Loved it and I will look forward to reading another work from this author.
