“One person‘s pain doesn‘t negate another‘s. Our heartaches are not competition, but the bridge to empathy. So that we can look at one another and know that on some level, we understand.”

As Teddy stood, and the opening notes of the national anthem reverberated through the throne room, Beatrice realized what it meant.
The reign of America‘s first queen had officially begun, at last.

pickThough published five years later, this sequel to #TheRoyalWe starts a mere few weeks after the conclusion of the first book. Hiding out in #Wigtown, Bex & Nick try to put the scandal that broke on their royal wedding behind them— but they can‘t stay away forever… Returning to the spotlight, they both work on repairing relationships & their future. Queen Eleanor really steals the show here & I loved her scenes the most! Such a fun duology!
pickI enjoyed just how the author portrayed the Queen‘s humanity in this book.She was quite likable to me & had me rooting for her!

pickThis was a little softer and more lightweight than I expected. It was sweet and cozy and all the characters were fun to root for. The mystery doesn‘t really get going until the second half, maybe the last third of the book. The plot is mostly predictable, though she does bring a twist out of nowhere, and the resolution of the mystery doesn‘t quite stand up to scrutiny. But that‘s ok, it‘s not a book to scrutinize. Happy endings for everyone. 👑🖤
