But this is no fairy tale.
When I met Anderson North, I fell in love with the man, not the title. With his heart, not the crown.
But as I step foot in the Nation of Belmont for the first time as the Crown Prince’s fiancée, I’m reminded of exactly who he is outside of the bubble we built around ourselves.
I’m reminded of exactly who I’ll need to become if I’m to survive this tangled web of antiquated rules, constant media attention, and negative publicity from a country that hates the idea of an American marrying their future king.
This may be a life of privilege and excess, but I soon learn that with notoriety comes jealousy.
With fame comes enemies.
With a crown comes a gilded cage.
I’ve always dreamed of finding my happily ever after. I didn’t realize ours would come at a price.

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.
I love everything about Anderson and Nora. I love how they met and fell in love. I love how they took a chance to be with the other person despite all the obstacles they faced in the first book. And now that Anderson has returned home, with Nora by his side, they are about to face even more obstacles.
I will say that I found some things in this book to be a bit predictable, but I found it so well written and I was so invested in making sure that it all worked out that I just didn't care. Anderson and Nora may have had people around them that didn't approve of their relationship, but they had plenty who had their back (aka lots of familiar faces). And that is what makes the difference.
I had read quite a few books since I read Royal Games and I absolutely forgot some key plot points from that book. So imagine my surprise when these things came up and I was like "Oh that's right!!" I also went to bed one night thinking "I'll just read a few chapters" and then it was a couple hours later (aka way past my bedtime) and I had finished it. I just couldn't put it down. That's how good it is.
