Review: Once Upon a Royal


Title: Once Upon a Royal
Author: Teri Wilson
Publication date: 11/1/2022
Series: Once Upon 
Stars: 5

Summary: She pretends to be a princess at children’s parties.

But can she melt a real prince’s frosty heart?

Get swept away by a Christmas story from Hallmark

and bestselling author Teri Wilson— the queen of royal romance!

“I’m Prince Nikolas of San Glacera. Oh, you’ve never heard of us? Well, you’re not the only one. Our country relies on winter tourism, but we’re attracting fewer and fewer visitors. I admit it’s a problem. I just don’t think the solution is an American who likes to play dress-up.

You see, while I was away on a trip to honor our military, the palace talked my family into holding a contest. The winner gets to play a character in our annual Ice Village festivities and accompany our royal family to holiday events.

And did they at least choose an accomplished actor? Hardly. This woman, Gracie Clark, runs a children’s party business and performs as—I kid you not—‘Princess Snowflake.’

Of course, I do respect the fact that she volunteers at children’s hospitals. I suppose to some, she might have a certain charm... But the whole cheap spectacle is beneath our dignity.

I’m not going to shirk my duty to my kingdom. I’ll go to every event with her. At least, once Christmas is over, she’ll be gone…”

Review: I absolutely adore Teri Wilson. This is only the second book I've read by her but the Once Upon A Royal series is absolutely phenomenal.
Right away I could tell I was going to like Grump Nick. I also was hoping to get a lot of Jaron and Emilie in the story. I absolutely cannot put the book down. I've been so infatuated with it, I've almost forgot about my morning sickness. I'm not normally a fan of the grumpy sunshine trope. But Teri Wilson really knows how to write a story. I absolutely cannot stop smiling. Also, the food she describes is making me so hungry while also wanting to bake all the Christmas cookies. I loved this story so much I literally downloaded it, read it and then completed it. I cannot wait for her next book.
There may or may not have been tears running down my face towards the end, I'm just going to blame the hormones.
