A Royal Disaster

Royally Engaged Series, Book 1

By: Jennifer Bonds

Narrated by: Sofia Willingham

A light romantic comedy sure to leave you smiling....

Elena Murphy is doing just fine - if you don't count her struggling art studio, her ex-boyfriend suing her, and accidentally tossing purple paint onto a man who just happened to be in the wrong place at the very worst time. And not just any man, but freaking royalty. The World's Most Eligible Bachelor, to be exact, with the paparazzi catching the whole embarrassing incident on camera.

Could her life be any more of a dumpster fire?

Yes, it could. Now she's getting dragged online and her clients are disappearing faster than free drinks at happy hour. And just when she thinks things can't possibly get worse...His Royal Hotness decides the best way to fix this mess is to make her the envy of New York - by pretending to date.

Because what's worse than a prince treating her like his very own Cinderella, including dreamy nights at the theater and a nearly X-rated pottery date? Reminding herself it's all fake.

Contains mature themes.

Royal Romance

A Royal Disaster by Jennifer Bonds. This is the 1st in a new series and is Liam and Elena’s story. Elena is a struggling artist who accidentally throws paint over Liam who is the crown Prince of Valerian. When Elena is on the receiving end of bad press about the incident, Liam offers her a solution, pretend to be his fake girlfriend, and he will help her get her art studio back on its feet. This is a well written story which is humorous and entertaining, and I was hooked throughout. I recommend this book if you are into romcom royal stories.

Great story but would have been better with dual narrators

I like this book it was a sweet story and sexy but it would’ve been better if there had been a dual narrator one for the male and one for the female.

Wow. Just wow.

Such a great story with everything in it. Funny, fairytale love and sexy. A male narrator would be a great addition but not necessarily a must. I love that the female lead is Hispanic. So rare.

Love, Love, Love!

Finally, this is exactly what I've been looking for! RomCom at its finest! Perfect amounts of story and spice! Can't wait to read the rest of the series!

Mediocre story; explicit sex; and crude language

Bought this as an Audible book because I thought it might be fun to listen to.
Instead I got a mediocre story the was just a vehicle for multiple explicit, lustful sex scenes and lots of crude language. The heroine of the story spent most of it trying to save her failing art studio and focusing on having multiple organisms in the sex scenes with the prince. The prince wasn't much better as he was mostly focused on his trade agreements, helping Elana with art studio and lusting after her. Even toward the end of the story, they didn't figure out they were falling in love till they had sex without a condom. Kept hoping the story would get better, but it never did. I found the crude language particularly distasteful and hard to listen to. Wish I'd never purchased this book and won't be reading or listening to anything else by this author. The only positive I'd say was that the narrator was good and I admire her that she made it through reading it and doing the voices. Wish I could return this book. When it was done had to immediately start a known audible that I have listened to before so that I could try to get this distasteful one off my mind.
