The Royal We by Heather Cocks, Jessica Morgan

The Royal We (The Royal We, #1)

by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan

"In their first adult novel, authors Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan take on a story of romance and rivalries inspired by today's most talked-about royal couple: Will and Kate. "If I'm Cinderella today, I dread who they'll think I am tomorrow. I guess it depends on what I do next." American Rebecca Porter was never one for fairy-tales. Her twin sister Lacey was always the romantic, the one who daydreamed of being a princess. But it's adventure-seeking Bex who goes to Oxford and meets dreamy Nick across the hall - and thus Bex who accidentally finds herself in love with the eventual heir to the British throne. Nick is everything she could have imagined, but Prince Nicholas has unimaginable baggage: grasping friends, a thorny family, hysterical tabloids tracking his every move, and a public that expected its future king to marry a native. On the eve of the most talked-about wedding of the century, Bex reflects on what she's sacrificed for love -- and exactly whose heart she may yet have to break.""--

I really, really, really enjoyed this one. I loved the friendship and romance between Nick and Bex. How fantastically complicated it was and how hard it was for Bex. I probably would have given this a 5 star review had it not been for the ending, which felt like I ran into a wall While there was closure and the Royal We got their HEA, it felt like there needed to be more to the ending. What happened the next day? Did Nick and Freddie mend their relationship? What about Clive? Did he get what was coming to him? Too many questions that left me feeling unsettle with an otherwise fabulous book that I really did love.
