To Catch a Star by Romy Sommer

To Catch a Star (The Royal Romantics, #3)

by Romy Sommer

‘A fairy-tale romance to warm even the coldest of hearts.’ Chloe’s Chick Lit Reviews

Sally Thorne’s The Hating Game meets Netflix’s The Christmas Prince , you will ADORE this fun and flirty romcom!

Teresa Adler is the ultimate Ice Princess, with a heart as frozen as the winter landscape of her beloved home, Westerwald. All her life, she’s belonged to the ‘inner circle’ of wealth, privilege and position.

Christian Taylor: Heartthrob. Movie Star. Bad boy. The mischievous actor sets temperatures soaring in the picturesque baroque principality – and with a wicked glint in his eye and a chip on his shoulder he sets his sights on the one thing he’s told he can’t have. Teresa.

While Tessa holds the ultimate clue to the secret of Christian’s parentage, it is the heat of his touch that will make this Ice Princess feel more alive than she ever has before…

Another magical, gorgeously romantic modern fairy tale from Romy Sommer!

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free for a Blog Tour in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Thank you to Lisa at Tasty Book Tours for letting me take part in this tour.

Ever since I was a child I've always loved a fairy tale. I watched all the Disney films, Belle was always my favourite, and wanted to one day fall in love with my Prince. Not an actual Prince, although I wouldn't turn Prince Harry down, I mean a man who would love me like they do in fairy tales.

Tessa/Teresa is know as the Ice Princess in her little town of Westerwald. She is cold and unfeeling. She has this mask that shows who she should be, but the real her? No no-one has seen that. I really liked Tessa when she let herself be who she truly is. Not the façade for her family's sake or for the rest of the Aristocrats around her. The Tessa that let her hair down and really enjoyed herself.

Christian is this big time Hollywood actor who is used to women falling at his feet. We start off with him running away from 5 women. So it's more than a shock for him when Tessa doesn't fall at his feet. In fact when he uses all of his tricks and charm and she still doesn't want him he's even more determined to make her pay. But somewhere along the way it all goes a bit wrong.

I really liked Lee and Anna, they seemed to be the only true friends that Tessa had. Dom has been there for Christian through it all. I was glad they both had people they could talk to.

While it was a slow start once I was around over halfway through I couldn't put this book down. This was the first book of Romy's that I've read but it won't be the last.

This is a beautiful story of love, facing your fears and stepping out of your comfort zone.
