From the Back:
Adelaide Smith is too busy for fairy tales. She's been working hard to put herself through law school, and she's determined to stay focused on her goals. Then she receives a letter notifying her that she is a direct descendant of King Maximillian Konig V, the ruler of a small European principality called Montovia.
What? No. That's the stuff of cheesy made-for-TV movies, not real life.
Still, curiosity gets the best of her, leading to a Christmas break trip 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-life fairy tale romance.
My Reflections:
Melody Carolson's Christmas novel was a lovely twist. Who doesn't love a modern fairytale, for grown-ups? This novel is reminiscent of Princess Diaries and Knotting Hill or a Hallmark movie, and well I love those. This one was tantalizingly sweet with humour and wit thrown in for good measure, a perfect combination for an epic Christmas read.
A struggling college girl meets royalty, a fantasy come true!
This is a quick read, very Christmassy and a perfect combination paired with hot cocoa and a warm crackling fire.
If you are looking for a fun, warm and fuzzy book for the Christmas season look no further!
