Light and fun romance, with a smart black woman working in STEM research. I had to use my suspension of disbelief to accept the male character being a spoiled rich prince with a good heart (and not an asshole). It has that fairy tale feel to it when some things are too good to be true. But, hey, it's fantasy, and it made me smile.
I love Alyssa Cole's writing, every time I start before I know it I'm already 30% into the book. Her characters are fun and relatable the one in this series are usually dorks (at least the ladies are and I am here for it). This is what those cheesy Hallmark royal Christmas romances want to be minus the Christmas. And I just realized that I read the series in reverse order but with romances that doesn't matter as they can all standalone.
I DEVOURED this book. Though there was an element of mystery it was pretty easy to solve and that didn't take away anything from my enjoyment of this. Loved it!
