Description
The perfect summer romance has arrived! Jenny Han meets The Royal We in this YA romcom about an American girl who finds herself falling for the Prince of England during a whirlwind summer in Scotland. Perfect for fans of Harry and Megan, Will and Kate, and love that breaks all the rules.
Aspiring writer Hannah has scored the opportunity of a lifetime-escaping her sleepy Midwestern town for the summer to intern in Scotland for her favorite author. But her plan to spend the next few months being the best assistant ever is derailed when her idol suddenly decides to abscond to Japan with her boyfriend.
So it almost seems too good to be true when a mysterious stranger-a tall, obnoxiously cute stranger-she meets at the pub one night gets her job at the royal family's castle in Inveresk. It's only when she shows up to her first day of work that she realizes the stranger is Finnian, the prince of England.
Finn is confined at Inveresk as punishment for his party boy antics, and clearly just wants Hannah around for his own amusement. But the more she gets to know him, the more she wonders if this is just a fling or if she's found herself in a star-crossed summer romance that she never could have imagined...
What to expect:
Royal Romance: American Hannah finds love where she least expects-in Scotland with the prince of England.
Summer Abroad: Scotland isn't the worst place to be stuck for the summer, especially when there's a cute Prince next door.
Forced Proximity: Prince Finn conveniently finds Hannah a job-at the castle where he's spending his summer.
Found Family: While falling in love with Finn, Hannah bonds with her coworkers and new Scottish friends.

Reviews / Votes
"A pitch-perfect summer romance. With clever banter, royal charm, and lovable characters, prepare to be swept away by Royal Summer." - Ann Liang, New York Times bestselling author of I Hope This Doesn't Find You"A delightful escape-funny, witty, and everything I want in a summer romance. Readers will swoon." - Krystal Marquis, New York Times bestselling author of The Davenports
"The rollicking ride leverages all the charm of Hallmark movie tropes. From butterfly-inducing meet-cute to heart-wrenching climactic confrontation to somewhat bittersweet denouement, this romantic comedy is fluffed to perfection with just the right amount of reality to ground and colorful spice to excite." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)
"A fun and flirty royal romance." - Kirkus Reviews
