Hot and steamy, a perfect royal romance for a cold fall/winter evening. Likeable (though troubled) characters, secrecy, sneaking around and a little bit drama make for a fun and moving love story. Warning: Lots of sex, read on public transport at your discretion. ;) Disclaimer: I received an advanced review copy from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to Netgalley and Intermix for the digital reading copy in exchange for an honest review. I have been pretty excited reading this as I love royal settings and a gay couple in this setting is definetely new to me. Unfortunately at the beginning I couldn't feel the chemistry between James and Ben. It got better throughout the book and there were some really nice scenes with them, but all in all they couldn't blow me away together. The royal setting was absolutely great and I loved reading everything about it. I also enjoyed the royal side characters, especially Indigo. I am giving very good 3 stars as I am seeing a lot of potential for improvements in the next part of this series. I am really curious to find out how their relationship will continue.
