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.

Nina hurried down the last few steps, then glanced over her shoulder. “I don‘t know what‘s going to happen. But when it‘s all over and the dust has settled, this country will never be the same again.”

She was going to make a balcony appearance—to step out into the warm June night, alone.
“Most of all,” she told him, “I am going to be the queen.”

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!

pickHard to believe this one came out ten years ago! Since its release in 2015, with the sequel out 5 years later, I decided to re-read this one to fully enjoy the whole duology! And I‘m so glad— while I clearly remembered the central, larger than life romance of an Iowan foreign exchange student meeting and falling in love with a prince, I had forgotten the side dramas between the friends & her twin that added so much more to this romance! So fun!
panIt got a little more interesting right toward the end, but most of the journal entries seem trivial. She also talks way too much about having to hide her diary. The most interesting part of it was the historical facts after the diary entries. Knowing that Queen Victoria did keep a diary starting at the age of 13 makes me want to read that instead! This was the newest book on my TBR.
