Another great book by Carol Moncado

It's funny how once you get started on a series, it can be hard to stop reading all the books in it. I'm not specifically a fan of books about royalty, movie stars or wealthy people, I simply enjoy reading people's stories. And once I've spent time with them, well, I have to keep reading.

Here are some things I enjoyed about The (Elusive) Princess

Evie's insecurity and shyness

The way Peter seemed to understand Evie so well

The snarky way Evie treated her brother, the king

Evie's interactions with the band members at the amusement park

Peter's difficulty in figuring out how to address Evie's brother, King Benjamin

The way Evie and Peter fell so instantly for each other

How Peter was able to tell immediately that Evie was pretending to be her identical twin, Gen - he could always tell the difference between them right away

Gen's disappearance and the way Evie stepped so far out of her comfort zone to help the family deal with it

The (Elusive) Princess is a sweet continuation of the Crowns & Courtship series. It does end with a cliff-hanger yet in such a way it is still a satisfactory conclusion. It's (Royally) Complicated, Gen's story, is slated to release October 1, so it isn't too long to wait.
