_225_350_Book.1148.coverSusanna has found her true prince, and their happily ever after is just around the corner. But when Nate asks her to give up something precious to her, Susanna can’t help but wonder if it’s a sign that their love is not meant to be. Susanna Truitt (Once Upon A Prince) is three weeks from royalty. She’ll soon marry King Nathaniel II of Brighton Kingdom. But when the government insists she renounce her American citizenship before the wedding, coupled with the lack of involvement by family and friends, Susanna’s heart begins to doubt whether this marriage is God’s plan for her. Nathaniel would do anything for his bride-to-be. But he knows his position requires that she give up a lot to be with him. Her life will never be her own—right down to her very identity. When she travels home to St. Simon’s Island, Georgia, right before the wedding, Nathaniel fears she won’t return. Gathering his courage, he devises a plan to win his bride all over again, and together they seek out a kingdom to treasure above all.

Review

I’m a big fan of Rachel Hauck. When I saw this novella and realized it was a follow up to Once Upon a Prince I was thrilled. I really enjoyed the story of Susanna and Nathaniel and I loved that I’d get to see them get married. What could be better than a fairy tale wedding, right?

Susanna and Nathaniel and moving towards their royal nuptials when the government throw a snag into the process: they wish Susanna to renounce her US citizenship and to become a pure Brighton citizen as a way to put some control on her. Their logic is archaic, fearing that if Susanna was still a US citizen she could leverage that and get the US involved in any future conflicts Brighton is involved in. As a reader, it seems silly and unnecessary but something you could picture a small country doing to protect itself. With this news, Susanna leaves Brighton and returns home to Georgia so she can think about what she really wants. Is her love for Nathaniel enough to give up her American identity?

Nathaniel takes steps to win Susanna back and convince her to return to Brighton by planning a stunning surprise that I won’t spoil. It’s so romantic. I love the relationship of these two characters. Seemingly so different but at the core they are a perfect match. The story flows smoothly with numerous twists, turns and snags that make you wonder if happily ever after is possible.

I’m looking forward to picking up the other book in this series, Princess Ever After. Hopefully there will be a little bit more of Susanna and Nathaniel in it.

4.5 out of 5 stars.
