I'm sucker for a royal read especially one where the prince falls for a commoner. Which is exactly what happens between Prince Jameson and Dani aka Duchess, an American rapper and business woman. I absolutely loved watching their relationship progress, especially the dates that Jameson planned for Dani, they were so sweet and special.

I also loved these characters individually. Dani was so driven and I admired her business savvy and tenacity. I appreciated Jameson's humility and desire to make more of himself as an individual than his other royal individuals.

I'm all for a book with steam, but at some points was a little over the top for me. I'm not a huge fan of dirty talk in steamy scenes and there was A LOT throughout the book. I also didn't like how their intimate moments were randomly mentioned in scenes where it wasn't needed. Like they'd be having a completely normal conversation and then it be "oh and this happened last night."

Overall I really enjoyed this read and highly recommend it if you love royal reads!
