Dave was an unexpected complication in Princess Jacqueline Grace’s life. Her strong attraction to the man she believed to be her father’s new assistant valet was just not acceptable to her. Not that she was a snob, because she really wasn’t. It was out of a concern for her country and how they would react after so many of her siblings married “commoners” (my word – not hers!)

I was so proud of this princess for the way she reacted when she was given such a horrible slight by the Trade Minister of Athmetis. The way she stood up for herself and her country in such a strong yet gracious manner had me cheering for her!

Other than the cloaking of both his identity and his reason for being on San Majoria, Dave was an amazing guy. After two dates with a woman, she left her daughter in his care for a few hours and then never returned. While he could have turned little Mary over to the state, he chose instead to nurture her and be a stable influence in her life, even though it slowed down his mission. He was loyal, humble and kind.

I also loved seeing King Edward at work again. He has been so delightful as he helps his adult children through life and tries to help King Benjamin as well. In this book, though it wasn’t blatant, it appears that he enjoyed the role of matchmaker.

There were a number of twists in the story. I was surprised by some of the events and enjoyed the way so many of the royals from so many countries made appearances here.
