Her Royal Happiness

De: Lola Keeley

Narrado por: Sienna Frances

Keeping a secret isn't easy when you're in the most visible family in the world. It's even harder when you're a lesbian who has just fallen madly in love. An opposites attract, charming royal romance with a dash of fake dating.

When tabloid darling Princess Alice, the first out member of the British royal family, meets an opinionated single mother, the encounter goes viral. It seems the anti-monarchist education specialist Sara has a view on all things and doesn't mind sharing.

So when Alice later has to ask Sara to help diagnose her young nephew's learning difficulties, it's seriously awkward. At least until they discover how beautifully they click together.

With the press sniffing around them, and Alice desperately wanting to protect her nephew's privacy, they agree to claim they're dating.

But as their fake dates start to feel like much more, Sara and Alice must navigate having a real relationship in the public eye. Is that even possible, though, while keeping Sara's daughter safe and happy, and facing the Queen's disapproval?

Can they overcome their doubts for love? A love they can no longer hide?

Contains mature themes.

Fun story

Well narrated and charming. A bit too much graphic sex for the rest of the tone of the book.

A spicy Royal Romp love story with the cutest kid ever!

This is not the “whitewashed” version of this story, which I greatly appreciate! There’s barrier breaking, heart melting, dressing downs, eye openings, hidden prejudices and reconciliations in this more diverse and inclusive version of royal sapphic romance. I especially loved the backstory of the little girl. No spoiler alerts- you’ll just have to read it! Overall, the narrator was good and had distinguishing voices for the characters, though there was a little spice missing in her love scene cooking. It’s very shuttle but most narrator’s voices take on a more intimate tone at those moments . Still, overall, it’s a great listen.

It was enlightening to see both sides of various issues and understand the perspectives of multiple characters. The author did an excellent job of this! I especially liked the reveal of motivations by the queen towards the end, but mum’s the word on details! This is a fun enjoyable book!

Insight

Enjoyed MCs and “listening” to life behind the royal curtains. Two versions of confidence find a way to connect. I like Lola’s brand of storytelling - from either side of the pond.

Excellent, absolutely loved it!!

This book was exactly what I was looking for and was narrated perfectly. I can only hope there will be a sequal. Chapter 31 alone had me on the edge of my seat.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT 😍

It was everything and more. I would’ve loved if they made this into a movie. Every part of this audiobook was extraordinary and I highly recommend it.
