Welcome to Litsy!

When I make it to this time of year and the chaos of the holidays can feel a bit much, I just want to curl up with an easy Christmas read. This one fit the bill. It‘s one part Princess Diaries and one part What a Girl Wants. Entertaining and completely unrealistic in the best way. An American law student is whisked off to a fictional European country when she finds out her father is the king there. What follows is predictable, silly, but fun.

Hanging out at Starbucks before I go into school for the afternoon. This was a delightful sweet romance with Scotland as a major character ❤️❤️❤️

My youngest is sick (he‘ll be fine), my oldest has been dumped (he‘ll be fine), my in laws are a pain in the ass ( there is no cure) and my husband is stressed about all of it ( holidays will get here eventually). I‘m just going to be here for the next while

I bought this book at a bookstore nearby that stocks authors in our state (KY). For non-religious people—this romance does mention going to church, faith, & comments like “God‘s plan”, but not that much. A romance set in Scotland. Minimal steam—lustful thoughts & kissing. A travel writer who constantly has accidents meets a Scottish guy who only wants to stay home. Both have emotional baggage, but you know it will be fine. Great setting!! 4⭐️

This is a re-read for me. It is okay. I rated the book a 3 out of 5 stars.

For an inspirational fiction romance, I was a bit surprised by the quick and passionate kissing scenes. Don't get me wrong I know it's fine to kiss just not used to it (and neck, and earlobe kissing) in this genre. 🙃

Anyway, very cute but hard hitting self confidence theme that had me recommending it to additional readers that can relate.
