Originally published as "Royals," New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins serves up a deliciously royal romance, perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen and Huntley Fitzpatrick.
Meet Daisy Winters. She's an offbeat sixteen-year-old Floridian with mermaid-red hair, a part time job at a bootleg Walmart, and a perfect older sister who's nearly engaged to the Crown Prince of Scotland. Daisy has no desire to live in the spotlight, but relentless tabloid attention forces her join Ellie at the relative seclusion of the castle across the pond.
While the dashing young Miles has been appointed to teach Daisy the ropes of being regal, the prince's roguish younger brother kicks up scandal wherever he goes, and tries his best to take Daisy along for the ride. The crown--and the intriguing Miles--might be trying to make Daisy into a lady . . . but Daisy may just rewrite the royal rulebook to suit herself.
New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins brings her signature humor, love of Americana, and flair for romance to this page-turning Princess Diaries turned-upside-down story.
I received an free ARC of this book through First to Read by Penguin. Thanks First to Read!
Royals was a fantastic book that I'm so glad I had the opportunity to read. I've already recommended it to one friend, and I have a feeling I'll be recommending it to even more as the publication date gets closer! Everything about this book was great, mostly because Daisy's relationships with the people around her were both believable and exciting. I really felt like I understood why she did what she did in every situation, and I was genuinely invested in the outcome of her story. 10/10 stars, will definitely recommend, probably read again, and almost certainly buy a copy once it's available!
