Queer fake dating meets medieval court romance. Gwen, royal princess, and Art, son of a Lord, have been betrothed since they were infants and have hated each other almost as long. Upon both discovering the other is gay, they agree to pretend their betrothal is working out. However, there is trouble at court and someone is stirring up strife for the royal family...
- First and foremost, this book is hilarious. I loved some of the sarcasm and teasing between characters and several times had to put the book down and stop laughing.
- The characters wouldn't have looked too out of place in a modern romance. The book doesn't take it's medieval setting too seriously which makes it a lot more digestable and accessible for readers. Definitely not as complicated as a lot of historical romance books.
- I love how Arthurian legend is sprinkled into the book and the twists the author makes to it. Excalibur nine, anyone?
Queer, makes you laugh and easy to digest. Perfect for those wanting an easy read with diverse characters.
