3.5 stars I did enjoy the book but I just could not justify rounding up to 4. This was an audio book with a very good narrator.

This is the second in Jenny Frame's Royal Romance series. Frame definitely has a favorite MC trope - a very Butch and a femme. Usually the Butch character is the Boss or Queen or Duchess and the femme is the commoner although she mixed it up this time. The femme is a Princess however the Butch commoner is also her boss. Do you sense a theme here? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy this trope and I've enjoyed Frame's previous books (published and online), it just that this book wasn't unique enough and the MC's not that engaging especially the Princess Roza. 

In one way I could identify with Roza. My Mother also died in childbirth when I was born. I was lucky to have a Grandmother who raised me when I was young and later my older sister. However, I couldn't identify with her immaturity and selfishness. 

Georgie & Bea from book one are in this book also. I think George and Bea are my favorite Frame couple, so it was good to see them again (they have more than just a cameo).

Princess Rozala of Denbourg enjoys her reputation as a wild child, especially when it annoys her father, the King. When Roza’s latest girlfriend brings scandal to the palace doors, her father sends her to Britain, in the hopes that time with her cousin Queen George and the new Queen Consort will finally make her face her responsibilities. After overcoming personal demons and quitting the high-stakes world of finance, Lennox King is content to keep her life simple. As the new director of a hospice charity, she uses a strict business approach to help the charity grow and prosper. When Roza comes to work at the charity under orders from the Queen Consort, babysitting a spoiled princess is definitely not on Lennox’s agenda. But when passion flares between them, will Lennox’s past stop their relationship in its tracks, or will a twist of fate bring a new future that neither was expecting?
