Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this Arc in exchange for an honest review.
Y'all I loved this book so much! I loved the storyline and characters. I can't wait to read more by this author! I am recommending this to everyone who will listen! I can't wait to buy this for my bookshelf!
A super cute romantic comedy. So much fun to read and enjoy. This prince and wedding planner make the best couple and this was delightful from start to end.
This book caught me off guard.
Did I like it, yes. Was it enjoyable, yes. Was it sappy, also yes.
But what threw me off the most was the description of a male body...as told by a guy. Like I was really shocked that this was written by a dude. However, I did enjoy this one.
It is clean.
This was such a fun ride, from beginning to end I enjoyed this book. it was so fun and cute. You know I hardly read books about royalty but this one caught my eye and I thought for sure it would be her that was going to be the princess and that she was going to meet him but it was the other way around. Either way I had a blast diving into the story and seeing where it was headed. it had
those A Christmas Prince and The prince and me vibes mixed in with a touch of hallmark which I love. So good can't wait to read more from this author.
A big thank you to NetGalley and the author for the eARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. You always know with the word Royal in the title, that the book might be over the top. Well, this one was a bit over the top, it was still a fun read. The characters had charisma and were interesting. Cute read 3.5 stars
very nice, loved the pace of grace and oliver's story!! it was just adorable <3
thanks netgalley and publisher for the arc!
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC of this novel as well as the independent publisher and Xpresso Book Tours. This felt very by the numbers without a lot of surprises and it was very fine to me. I wanted something more from this and was hoping it would be more fun. I started skimming as the book went on because I wanted to get to the end and see where it could go. The last minute introduction of a character just to set up the next book in the series just felt cheap. I did not enjoy this one and would not recommend to my audience. 2 stars.
I always have such a blast when reading something by this author, and this book was no exception. Grace is a wedding planner whose reputation has taken quite a hit with some viral videos that have been circulating showing some of the chaos that went down at some of the weddings she had planned. So, imagine her surprise when Prince Oliver requests her services in planning his nuptials! Little does she know that the Prince has his own agenda. He is trapped in an arranged marriage and when he sees the disasters that happened with Grace's clients, he figures she can bring the same chaos and disaster to his wedding, to the point where it doesn't even happen. But Grace's plans go smoothly, and as the days go by, Prince Oliver is quite drawn to her. With his growing attraction and feelings toward Grace and his impending wedding which is beginning to look like it might actually take place, the Prince seems to be in a bit of a bind. He needs to find a way to follow his heart without causing a royal scandal.
This was a very enjoyable and delightful read, and as always, the book left me with a warm and fuzzy feeling and a big smile on my face. Absolutely wonderful read! You can never go wrong with a book by Rich Amooi! I am always guaranteed an entertaining and fun time!
Thanks to Netgalley for providing a complimentary copy. This is my honest review.
Thank you to Netgalley and Rich Amooi for this ARC of ‘Royal Crush’.
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. It was light, funny and entertaining. Both Grace and Oliver were very likeable and were perfect for eachother. Definitely recommend giving this a read!
"Royal Crush" by Rich Amooi offers a lighthearted and humorous take on a romantic comedy, where a bumbling American wedding planner, Grace, finds herself unexpectedly hired by Prince Oliver to orchestrate his lavish nuptials. The premise is built on the classic trope of a reluctant arranged marriage and an unexpected romance blossoming between the unlikely pair.
The strengths of the novel lie in its comedic elements and the charming dynamics between the characters. Amooi brings a delightful sense of humor to the story, making it an enjoyable and easygoing read. Grace's character, despite being labeled as the worst wedding planner, adds a touch of endearing clumsiness to the narrative.
However, I rated "Royal Crush" 3 stars because, while it delivers on the promised swoony and sweet romantic comedy, it doesn't offer much in terms of originality. The plot follows a predictable trajectory, and the characters, while charming, lack depth. The closed-door romantic elements keep the tone light, but readers seeking more complexity or depth in character development may find it lacking.
In summary, "Royal Crush" is a fun and breezy romantic comedy that fulfills its genre expectations. It's an entertaining read for those who enjoy a light-hearted love story with a touch of humor, but it may not stand out for those looking for a more nuanced or unique storyline.
Prince Oliver has been arranged to get married to the Princess of the neighboring country. The problem is that they both don’t want to get married to each other, so they plot and hire Grace, a wedding planner from US who has become famous as a cursed wedding planner. Will their plan work ?
This was a fun Royal rom com read. From superstitions, to tradition to funky relatives, it had everything. How Grace reacted when the Prince calls her the first time was hilarious and once she is in Verdana, their moments together super cute. I definitely enjoyed this book and hope to read more in the series.
I’ve tried for a few weeks now to get this book to catch my interest and have made it 100 pages in. The synopsis was intriguing but the book itself just can’t hold my attention. I kept trying to convince myself to read a certain number of pages each time I opened it but have given up. This one just isn’t for me.
Oh my. What. A breath of fresh air! So fun and quick read that left me wanting more!!! Looking forward to reading more from this author!
Cute story with loveable characters – both Grace and Oliver were well written and interesting. Their banter and chemistry were believable and I laughed out loud a few times at some of the disasters that happened with the wedding planning. Entertaining with a happy ending.
This is my first book by Rich Amooi and it will not be the last! I loved every moment from start to finish. I have to comment on the write up by the author after the copyright information. I don't want to spoil but it alone had me wanting the read the book and laughing out loud. The writer incorporates such a sense of humor all thru the book that I wanted to run not walk to the nearest bookstore and buy all his books, luck for me I just had to click on my kindle! This writer definitely has a new fan and I can't wait to read the next two planned books in this series as well as everything he writes from now to forever! Thanks #Netgalley for the ARC of this this amazing book! P.S. Five stars is not enough for me!!! It needs many more!
Prince Oliver would do anything to stop his arranged marriage from happening. And the perfect way to do that is to hire the “worst wedding planner on earth “ from America. Little did he know that nothing was true about her reputation. Grace the wedding planner is not only good at what she is doing but also a breath of fresh air in the palace and the most gorgeous woman he ever saw.
Oliver and Grace fall in love despite everything that goes against their love. The story is not only funny and heartwarming but also beautifully written. I enjoyed every second of this book.
What a fun read! I stayed up way too late to finish it but it was worth it. I’m intrigued by the siblings’ stories that are coming up next. Yup, I’ll definitely be reading those too!
This is my first book from this author, and I have to say I was not disappointed. Book was so funny and sweet. I’d have to say I just loved that Grace was so relatable. I too trip and fall all the time. Though Veronica was by far my favorite.
their way with each other, how they’re openly comfortable with one another — i love that about them. the way grace stood her ground & know what she wants, i mean she’s not an annoying damsel in distress kind of heroine so i kind of like that about her. nevertheless it was an okay book. just nice. if you wanna pick up a short & light read, this is definitely can be your go-to!
Rich Amooi is always a “one click” author for me. This is the first book of a series (first time for that I believe.) and it was a great start. All the sweetness and laughs make it such a fun book.
Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC. ~I was given this book and made no commitments to leave my opinions, favorable or otherwise~
