I was sent a copy of this via NetGalley for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own

The truth is, this book was fast.
- It was an easy read, sure.
- It was also paced very quickly
- Barry Allen has nothing on this book

If you like an insta-love story, this one is for you

Royal Order was a cute and fun read that centred around royal families. I enjoyed the storyline of this story and found i could not put it down.

Penelope Alcott never wanted to be queen but circumstances conspire to crown her queen and make Simon Stuart her spouse. The 3rd in the series of Royals of Danovar. Good book to end out the series and enjoyed the character with storyline.

Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.

A royal romance that immerses you in Simon and Pen’s lives from the onset of the story. The tenderness between the two is endearing, their journey toward their HEA was heartbreaking at times. Simon’s floundering without purpose caused a despair that was emotional and saddening. While Pen’s struggles over her being thrust into a life she hadn’t wanted touched my heart. As the couple worked their way through their journey that was laced with minefields caused by their adversaries, supporting each other when all the extraneous negativity was eliminated, they were actually finally getting what they had only wanted, to be a family.

This ARC book was complimentary, provided by the Publisher and it. I am voluntarily providing my honest review.

I received Royal Order by Leslie North for free in exchange for an honest review. I did enjoy this book. It took two strangers and threw them together in a sort of arranged marriage. Both were open to it, and the relationship deepened. It was a sweet story.

Sad to see this being the end of the series. I really liked this book. It was a quick read that left you satisfied and really happy you read it

I love anything to do with a royal romance. This is whatI thought this book would be. Definitely did not disappoint.

This was my favorite book of the series, and it focuses on cousin Simon and Penelope, who find themselves in an arranged marriage, with neither of them even remotely believing they'll end up on the throne, but through a series of unfortunate events, that's exactly what happens. Fantastic chemistry between Penelope and Simon, and I love how they support each other.

After having read Royal Service, I assumed that Royal Order would also be a kind of re-telling of a fairy tale. It wasn't however. The only relation to the Royal Service story is that Stuart is a cousin to King Philip. That doesn't mean the story isn't nice altogether.
It is a sweet story of Stuart being asked to marry Penelope. As fifth descendant of the throne, she never suspected to become Queen, until some strange events led to the death of leaving of her family members. Therefore, suddenly she is forced to become queen, instead of contently being the CEO of her toy company.
Not prepared or trained in royal manners, she is happy to turn to Stuart. He has been trained all his life to act like a royal. And a convenient marriage between the two of them, will ensure a much more smooth acceptance of the throne.
Stuart didn't realize he would be giving up his ancestral claims by marrying Penelope. So when they start to get the hang of being King and Queen, it all threatens to end, when suddenly someone is claiming to have a son with on of the other descendants of the throne. And therefore having more rights to the throne than Penelope. Can Penelope and Stuart prevent losing their thrones? Or will Penelope be happy to go back to her toy company, leaving Stuart with nothing? Find out for yourself in this wonderful short read of Leslie North. Four out of five stars from me. With a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.

While I did not enjoy the other two novels in this series, I did quite enjoy this one. Pen and Simon were a great couple, and i couldn't put this book down.

Now Penelope + Simon both have to learn how to navigate this royal rough sea.
The storytelling + the character's build were awesome!
It has all the ingredients that you need for a great book!

An entertaining, sweetly sexy, action packed and emotionally thrilling romantic journey that starts with a marriage out of the blue growing into a true and undeniable love..... could not get enough of this interesting and adorable couple, a page turner that I could not put down.

Penelope had no idea on how to be a queen. Accepting this role was something she wasn’t prepared for. Her life had been centered around designing toys for children. Simon is everything a king would expected to be. He was looking for a place where he could feel at home. What started as an arranged marriage turned into something so much more. Great end to the series!

From the serious to the sexy, the stubborn to the sassy, this couple will cause you to laugh and wonder at what they will do next.

Sometimes life has a way of changing everything we thought we knew about our future, a twist here, a turn there and suddenly we’re doing things we never thought we would be asked to or could possibly do. Such is the situation for Simon and Penelope. Neither ever though to rule, both saw a far different future unfolding in front of them… and certainly to think that love could grow from an arranged royal marriage would have been the thing of dreams. But then, sometimes dreams do come true usually when we least expect them.

Royal Order is fast paced, a quick read, steamy yet tender in all the right places. I liked this couple, and certainly could have wished for a longer, deeper story of their romance – yet, I was completely satisfied with the story I was given. Pen and Simon work well together, their blossoming romance was a delight to read. Through the twists and turns of life, Simon and Pen find the true treasure that came out of a politically arranged marriage… each other, and if that doesn’t make you swoon, then I don’t know what will. I’ve loved this entire series and would gladly recommend any and all of these stories to any Contemporary Romance reader, especially those that can never get enough of a royal love story… like me.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*

Simon and Penelope's story was in two words, fun reading! A sweet story, as strangers, they brought out the best in each other. Their story is emotional with obstacles that need to be met head on. Together they meet those obstacles while finding love in an arranged marriage. The episode with the treehouse and the background behind it just brought out more of who Simone is. Pen and Simon complimented each other as love surrounded them with their HEA. I would like to thank NetGalley and Relay Pub. for gifting me "Royal Order". My opinion is my own. This is mine. 4.25 Stars!

This was my first Leslie North read and I was pleasantly surprised. I had no idea it was part of series but I had no problems keeping up with the characters. It was a safe, cute, quick read and I'll be checking out the author's other works!

I really loved this adorable story. Called from a life of obscurity and elevated to the queen, Pen is a fish out of water, bewildered by her new role but determined to do her best. Still, her best is proving not to be up to snuff.

Enter Simon. Born to royalty, but too far down the line to inherit a throne of his own, he is the perfect person to teach Pen how to be a queen.

Their chemistry together is adorable as they gradually get to know each other and fall in love. The white-hot physical attraction between them is just a bonus.

I highly recommend this book!

Many thanks to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for my ARC copy. All opinions are my own.

To me, this book did not flow as well as the others in the series. I loved Simon and wished that Penelope had better appreciated him and all he gave up for her. The ending also felt too quickly resolved for the happily ever after.
