Today’s post is on Prince in Disguise by Stephanie Kate Strohm. It is 320 pages long and published by Disney Book Group. The cover is an illustration with two pairs of hands and coffee on it. There is very mild foul language, no sex, and no violence in this book. The intended reader is someone who likes cute Christmas love stories, royal love stories, and YA love stories. The story is told from first person close of the main character. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the blurb on Hoopla- Someday I want to live in a place where I never hear "You're Dusty's sister?" ever again. Life is real enough for Dylan-especially as the ordinary younger sister of Dusty, former Miss Mississippi and the most perfect, popular girl in Tupelo. But when Dusty wins the hand of the handsome Scottish laird-to-be Ronan on the TRC television network's crown jewel, Prince in Disguise, Dylan has to face a different kind of reality: reality TV. As the camera crew whisks them off to Scotland to film the lead-up to the wedding, camera-shy Dylan is front and center as Dusty's maid of honor. The producers are full of surprises-including old family secrets, long-lost relatives, and a hostile future mother-in-law who thinks Dusty and Dylan's family isn't good enough for her only son. At least there's Jamie, an adorably bookish groomsman who might just be the perfect antidote to all Dylan's stress . . . if she just can keep TRC from turning her into the next reality show sensation.
Review- A very cute story about first love in the spotlight. Dylan just wants to get her sister’s wedding over with, she is so over the camera’s everywhere in her life. On the way to the castle for the wedding, Dylan gets forgotten then rescued by one of the men of honor Jamie. They have a connection in that they both hate camera’s and just want this over with. So there is our cute love story. Of course there are misunderstandings, hovering cameramen, and the baby surprise to make the plot really funny. Jamie is cute and he really likes her, so he goes a little over the top to try and impress her but it is cute. The plot is sweet, the writing is funny, the romance is cute and believable, princes included, so if you looking for a cute holiday love story then you should give this one a try.
I give this novel a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this book from my local library Hoopla e-book service.
