About this listen

 "Her Royal Highness will make you swoon."—Entertainment Weekly

Regal romance abounds in this flirty, laugh-out-loud companion novel to Prince Charming, by New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins.

Millie Quint is devastated when she discovers that her sort-of-best friend/sort-of-girlfriend has been kissing someone else. Heartbroken and ready for a change of pace, Millie decides to apply for scholarships to boarding schools . . . the farther from Houston the better.

Soon, Millie is accepted into one of the world's most exclusive schools, located in the rolling highlands of Scotland. Here, the country is dreamy and green; the school is covered in ivy, and the students think her American-ness is adorable.

The only problem: Mille's roommate Flora is a total princess.

She's also an actual princess. Of Scotland.

At first, the girls can't stand each other, but before Millie knows it, she has another sort-of-best-friend/sort-of-girlfriend. Princess Flora could be a new chapter in her love life, but Millie knows the chances of happily-ever-afters are slim . . . after all, real life isn't a fairy tale . . . or is it?

The book was good had a great story line, downside was the narrator there were a mix of accents that just didn’t work

Good story just bad accents

When I read the write up of this book I was excited to listen to it, as it sounded different, and I haven’t listened to anything by this author or narrator before and I wanted a change. I will say firstly that the book was well written and I really enjoyed the story. The narrator was fantastic and brought the story to life and the voices of the different characters were individual which I love as I know who is who.

I will be keeping an eye out for this author and narrator in the future.

The only thing I would say is I would have liked the two main characters Millie and Flora to have more detailed story about their interactions they shared, the special moments that made them go from enemies to loving each other. As I felt that Millie spent a lot of time with her friends, which were great characters as well, but I personally wanted more of Millie and Flora together.

The story was written from the point of view of Millie.

The story is warm and fluffy, one of the best romcoms out there.

The other reviews say the accents are bad, but as a non british person I diden’t notice.

Amazing, highly recommended

I recommend you buy this book in paper or ebook format. The narrator's ham-fisted attempt at multiple Scottish Accents (weirdly the posh English accents were closer to Scottish) is so far off that all the Scottish characters sound like they look like Shrek and Fiona. She paints 'ugly' with her voice quite effectively but totally ruins the characters as a result as they're supposed to be beautiful young royals. Respect all Rachel Hawkins' hard work and put some effort in yourself and actually read the story. It's a great story beyond Karissa Vacker's insulting and wholly distracting attempt at Scottish accents.

Great Story but Insulting Accents from Narrator
