Dear Reader,

My name is Luke Edgewood, and there are few things in life that I require. Mainly black coffee. And flannel. And lots of solitude. And my dogs, Chewy and Indie. What I donโ€™t need is romance, so I have no plans to change my thirty-year-old bachelor status anytime soon.

But my youngest sister thinks that by accepting a short-term construction job in the small European country of Skymar, Iโ€™m going to follow along in her footsteps and discover my own romantic adventure. Nope. Bah humbug. The End. This time, her rom-com-movie senses are totally wrong.

Or maybe not. Because Iโ€™ve met a Grace Kelly look-alike who is annoying . . . until she isnโ€™t. But she is impossible. As in, nothing can happen between us because she is a literal princess. Even though thatโ€™s easy to forget when weโ€™re working together to restore a castle-like orphanage in a secluded mountain town and โ€œforced proximityโ€ includes a small closet, a secret one-hundred-year-old journal, and the tactile memory of an off-limits royal in my arms.

Basically, the whole situation has turned into an ooey gooey magical snow globe of romantic tropes complete with cute kids and an actual ball. Now, even my sentences are starting to sound like mush. Ugh. Send high levels of testosterone my wayโ€”Iโ€™m going to need it.

Loyally, Luke

I canโ€™t resist a book that starts, โ€œOnce upon a timeโ€ฆโ€

I found this to be a cute, clean romance. I loved that Prince Odin and Lady Camille met years ago and had an insta-love moment. But time and distance seemed to sever their love story.

Years later, Prince Odin goes on a reality TV show called ๐‘‡โ„Ž๐‘’ ๐‘†๐‘ข๐‘–๐‘ก๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘’๐‘ก๐‘ก๐‘’, looking for a wife. He didnโ€™t get the girl – can you imagine a handsome prince not winning the girl? Instead, he comes home to find it has been arranged that he marry Lady Camille of Saint Pierre. 

Watching these two interact as they come back together after years of separation was fun, especially because Camille was not exactly happy with how Odin handled things.  Although a slow burn, Odin and Camille grow as individuals and a couple, making this a true second-chance romance. 

The story has a unique feel with archaic 18th-century French rules and traditions, two made-up countries, yet a contemporary setting. Great secondary characters, like Odinโ€™s brothers, Camilleโ€™s friends, and Camilleโ€™s dog, Betty White, make this a sweet, modern, fairy-tale-esque romance.
