Royal Blood by Aimée Carter
5.0
Trigger Warning: mentions of assault.
4.5 stars rounded up.
When you first meet Evan Bright, she's setting something on fire. After that, she's introduced to the world as the King of England's illegitimate daughter. After that, she's being accused of murder. And I loved every second of it.
Part murder mystery, party contemporary, this book tells the story of a girl from a broken home who feels broken herself. Evan struggles to put the pieces of her life together with a family she barely knows, having to learn who she is herself along the way. This book touches on a lot of sensitive topics, but they're handled really well, and I commend Aimee Carter for it all.
The ending itself was good, though I'm still left with questions about certain things (that I won't say because of spoilers). Overall, I definitely recommend this to fans of royal contemporary novels, and I would love to read more books by Aimee Carter in the future.
ARC thanks to Netgalley.
