First of all I want to thank NetGalley for the review copy in exchange for an honest review.

And now onto said review. I feel like I would have needed a hundred pages more to be able to fully connect to the characters and the story. I liked the premise, what I read was fine, but I felt like it was not enough. I would have loved to see more backstory to the main characters, I don’t find what we need enough to root for them as a couple. I would have also loved to see more of the Princess, she seemed interesting but we didn’t get enough to grasp me.

Writing a short story is hard for the very reasons this one didn’t get me as interested as it should have. It’s still an entertaining read, but I feel like it could have been more than that.
