Someday I want to live in a place where I never hear “You’re Dusty’s sister?” ever again.
Life is real enough for Dylan—especially as the ordinary younger sister of Dusty, former Miss Mississippi and the most perfect, popular girl in Tupelo. But when Dusty wins the hand of the handsome Scottish laird-to-be Ronan on the TRC television network’s crown jewel, Prince in Disguise, Dylan has to face a different kind of reality: reality TV.
As the camera crew whisks them off to Scotland to film the lead-up to the wedding, camera-shy Dylan is front and center as Dusty’s maid of honor. The producers are full of surprises—including old family secrets, long-lost relatives, and a hostile future mother-in-law who thinks Dusty and Dylan’s family isn’t good enough for her only son. At least there’s Jamie, an adorably bookish groomsman who might just be the perfect antidote to all Dylan’s stress . . . if she just can keep TRC from turning her into the next reality show sensation.
3 Reasons You Should Read…
Prince in Disguise by Stephanie Kate Strohm
- The Story. If you love royalty or The Bachelor or cute contemporary romances, this book is for you. It has literally everything we could want and we couldn’t stop smiling the entire time we were reading.
- The characters. There’s banter and feels and so much swoon you’ll hardly be able to take it. There is such an eclectic, fun cast of characters, we mean it when we say there’s someone for everyone in Prince in Disguise. We ❤️ Jamie so much it hurts us a little bit.
- The Setting. Gah Christmas in Scotland sounds dreamy, doesn’t it? There’s a castle with secret passageways and a pub and snow. ❄️
Bottom Line:
We literally love everything about this book: the characters, the setting, the storyline, it’s our favorite.
