A Royal Christmas
A Royal Christmas: A Christmas Novella | Melody Carlson
2 posts | 1 read
Adelaide Smith is too busy for fairy tales. She's been working hard to put herself through law school and now that the end is in sight, she's determined to stay focused on her goals. Then she receives a letter notifying her that she has been found through a DNA registry to be a direct descendant of King Maximillian V, the ruler of a small Eastern European principality called Montovia. She's understandably skeptical. This is the stuff of cheesy made-for-TV movies, not real life. Although the pieces of this surprising family puzzle seem too good to be true, curiosity gets the best of her. At the king's invitation, Adelaide embarks on a Christmas break trip that is chock-full of surprises, including a charming village, an opulent palace, family mysteries, royal jealousies, a handsome young member of Parliament--and the chance at a real fairy tale romance with a happily-ever-after ending. Spend this Christmas with bestselling author Melody Carlson as she whisks you away to a royal holiday you'll never forget!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

Cute story, but the ending seemed really rushed. It was a bit of a letdown after everything had been building to that moment, then it abruptly stopped. An epilogue would have helped a little bit. For a novella, it was okay, not everything could be touched on. I really enjoyed the rest of the story, though. I wish there had been more. At times it did get a little unbelievable, but I'm willing to overlook that since I liked the story.
