I hope you’re as excited as I am, because I’m bringing you the first book in Alyssa Cole’s Reluctant Royals series.
Naledi Smith is a busy grad student trying to do it all while being persistently bombarded by emails that she is engaged to an African prince. She sends those straight to the spam folder, because she knows that’s not how this works, especially for a kid out of the foster system. Or is it?
Prince Thabiso has been looking for his missing betrothed for years, after her parents left the country shortly after she was born. However, when she mistakes him for a fellow waiter at a job, he finds himself reluctant to tell her the truth and shatter this little dream of being seen as himself instead of a prince.
Its a delicious combination of tropes in new shapes and new ways as these two flounder their way to love and understanding. You won’t want to miss it!
