Book Review: The Royal We by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan

Title: The Royal We
Authors: Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan
Enjoyment Rating: ****
Source: Digital Copy
Content Alert: It's pretty sexy!

We all know the story of Will and Kate. Yes, that Will and Kate. They met in college, they fell in love, they broke up, they reunited, they got engaged, and married in front of more than a billion people. But what if Kate were Bex, an Iowan whose father is famous for inventing a couch that can keep your beer cold? In that case, you'd have The Royal We, which is blatantly Kate Middleton fan fic, and completely and totally fun and engrossing. Cocks and Morgan work together as a pretty great pair (unlike most writing pairs, it was hard to tell who wrote which pieces of the book), and they made Bex and Nick a totally adorable couple, with some interesting stumbling blocks in their relationship. If you're a fan of the royals, or if you grew up thinking that you'd go to England and Will would fall in love with you enough to overlook the fact that you were from the wrong side of the pond, or if you just like a totally engrossing, steamy, funny, (long) romance novel about two great characters, this is a perfect read. It's no longer beach season, but go run yourself a long bath, crack into this one, and pretend it's still summer.
