Book Review of The Royal We (Royal We, Bk 1)

The Royal We (Royal We, Bk 1)
debbiemd avatar reviewed on


Prince Nicholas of Wales, while a student at Oxford, meets Rebecca "Bex" Porter, an American exchange student. They fall in love, have a hidden secret romance for 4 years, have a fight and break up, then get back together 2 years later. When they get back together their relationship is public and she is being groomed for her next position as part of the Firm. They get engaged and the book ends 8 years later on the eve of the royal wedding. Lots of facts loosely based on William and Kate. You know where the story is going but there is lots of drama along the way - their relationship, will they go public? will they get back together, their relationship with his brother and her sister, their relationship with their very closely held group of friends, will Bex survive the paparazzi, will she survive Duchess training, etc. Good story. Ends right before the wedding and with a blackmailing scandal brewing. But they are in love and looks like they will make it. Good romance read.
