I like learning in books, no matter what genre. I did not expect THAT PRINCE IS MINE to teach me so much about Korean royal court cuisine. Also, silly me, after reading the book blurb, I thought that the FMC Emma was the cook for the Korean royal court and fell in love with a crowned prince of a different nation in disguise, not a chef of Korean royal court cuisine wanting to open a culinary in Los Angeles. I expected rival courts. What I got was a local chef who makes excellent food and a prince who falls head over heels for her. It wasn’t what I expected, but I am now a Jayci Lee fan! 
 
Emma and Michel’s banter was witty, and I giggled a lot! Don’t let the cute cover fool you—this book has chili peppers! It also has excellent side characters. 
 
If you listen to audiobooks, Olivia Song’s narration is terrific. Just like the book, she makes it fun and entertaining. 
 
THAT PRINCE IS MINE is a fun romcom that you will enjoy if you are a royal romance reader. I had a lot of fun with it! 
 
Thanks, Macmillan Audio, for the ALC!
