I don't know of any girl growing up in the 90's who didn't dream of dating Prince William and Prince Harry. This book (and the series as a whole) is basically a homage to those dreams and fantasies. You have two sexy, eligible princes from England Wessco living with their grandmother, the Queen, after the untimely death of Princes Diana their parents. Oh yes, and these two princes have served in the military and enjoy partying. It's as close to reality as you can get without being Catherine Middleton and Meghan Markle.
Nick and Olivia's relationship is the bedrock of this novel. Their instantaneous and explosive chemistry sold me on their relationship, particularly since they move from strangers to lovers in a blink of an eye. Each of them grow as their romance develops, although not without some growing pains. Their insecurity, with themselves and with their relationship, is honestly explored. It's not always pretty, but insecurities never are. The sex scenes are satisfying, but never overwhelm the story. I like sexy times, but my interest wanes if sexy times replaces plot.
tl;dr A satisfying and sexy romance between a commoner and a prince to satisfy any girl's heart.
