When The Bachelor meets the Royals you’ve got yourself The Selection. I enjoyed this book a lot more than I expected (although the audiobook narrator was not great imo). I love the “alternate universe” part of the book, briefly explained around halfway into the story and would love to know more. America is a strong FMC without being aggressive, I really like Maxon’s character development so far and Aspen can go back to where he came from. 

Not filled with tension or intense romance, but quite entertaining nonetheless.
