"The perfect dream-come-true-fairytale!" --Jason June, author of Jay's Gay Agenda Will these long-lost twin princes be able to take on high school, coming out, and coronations together--or will this royal reunion quickly become a royal mess? Edward Dinnissen, Crown Prince of Canada, loves getting the royal treatment at his exclusive Manhattan private school and living in a fancy mansion on Park Avenue. But despite living a royal life of luxury, Edward is unsure how to tell his parents, his expectant country, and his adoring fans that he's gay. Billy Boone couldn't be happier: he loves small-town life and his family's Montana ranch, and his boyfriend is the cutest guy at Little Timber High. But this out-and-proud cowboy is finally admitting to himself that he feels destined for more . . . When Edward and Billy meet by chance in New York City and discover that they are long-lost twins, their lives are forever changed. Will the twin princes--"twinces"-- be able to take on high school, coming out, and coronations together? Or will this royal reunion quickly become a royal disaster?

Awwww! This gave me all the feels! What a splendid way to start the new year!
How amazing would it be to find out you are a long lost twin and Prince? It's giving Tangled vibes! I am so incredibly excited for everyone to read this one when it finally releases next week!!!!
It really puts so much in perspective about how the world views and viewed LGBTQIA+ people on a global celebrity and political scale. We must keep fighting for our rights to exist and love even if it means tearing down Royal norms. God Save the Queers!
Thank you Inkyard Press and NetGalley for allowing me to read this eARC for an honest review!
A Tale of Two Princes by Eric Geron releases on January 10, 2023!
2.5 stars. I suspended my disbelief enough to accept the premise that Canada now has a monarchy. But I couldn't move past the paper-thin characters who frequently bear only passing resemblance to actual human beings. The only emotion that rings true is Billy's ongoing grief three years after the death of his father. Without believable characters the entire “Crown Prince of Canada discovers he has a long lost twin who is the actual heir to the Canadian throne - and they're both queer” plot was dead on arrival. Ditto for the romances. YMMV if you stan anything that reminds you of [b:The Prince and the Pauper 62446 The Prince and the Pauper Mark Twain https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1376406798l/62446.SY75.jpg 2071994], [b:The Horse and His Boy 84119 The Horse and His Boy (Chronicles of Narnia, #5) C.S.
