Royal Valentine

DNF @ 37%

While I might give it a 2 star, I'm giving it a 1 because I didn't finish it and had at least finished the previous book and had given it 1 star. Look... I was bored and annoyed. I also just could not click with the couple and cannot tell you why.

I am not a fan of Royal story lines, but wanted to finish the series.

I loved Callum. He was everything a pg book boyfriend should be.

I literally thought the book had a million typos but just turns out the author was writing out words phonetically in a Scottish (I think?) accent. Literally the only thing I could focus on

Two royals in disguise run into each other in Rome and end up spending the day together pretending to be commoners. Their relationship was too instalovey, and Callum's reaction when he finds out who Illaria is was exaggerated. And I still don't get why in the end he said he wouldn't be able to spend a lot of time with her.

This... wasn't the worst thing I'd read but only because I'd read earlier books in this series. It would have made a great 2000's film but otherwise it was horribly predictable. Princess Ilaria swaps with her assistant to go wandering around without being recognised. Being a royal, so therefore an idiot, she takes painkillers that make her drowsy and passes out in a public space. Somebody took her home but turns out he's a photographer. But wait! He's actually not! He's the undercover heir of a Scottish kingdom! Who ever could have guessed it? They have a great day walking around, he realises who she is and bails cause he wants his freedom. They're both sad then get back together.
