The Royal Nanny by Karen Harper is a historical fiction told through the eyes of the Nanny that helped raise several of the royal children of King George V and Queen Mary.

As someone that LOVES the British Royal Family, I was obviously drawn to this book. I know quite a bit about this period and these royals, so none of this was new. I still enjoyed reading about these real historical figures from a fictional standpoint.

The only aspect of the book I did not enjoy, and felt was completely unnecessary, was the imagined character and love interest, Chad. I did not like him, and felt it detracts from the book. Only because of that addition did I lower my rating. It was still a good book overall.

3.5/5 stars rounded to 4.

Thank you NetGalley and William Morrow for this ARC and in return I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review and opinion.

Thanks to Book Club Girl at Harper Collins/William Morrow & Netgalley for sending me a copy of this book!
