Battle Royal by Lucy Parker
5.0
I have read 3 Lucy Parker books, the first one was a meh book, so for a long time, I wasn’t interested in reading more of her work. But I’m so glad I gave her another chance because I loved Headliners when I read it last year and I also loved Battle Royal. I’m definitely a new fan and I will make my way through her backlist.
I LOVED both of the main characters in Battle Royal, this book included the sunshine/grumpy trope in all its glory, they had so much chemistry but also from very early on the deeper connection was evident. I love how mature the relationship in Lucy Parker feels and how she manages to write books with relationships that don’t have too much drama and angst, but that is still interesting. The writing in this was really good and the book as a whole was funny and entertaining. Obviously, the whole plot with the royals was a bit unbelievable and unrealistic, but it was fun and I didn’t really care if it was something that would never happen in real life.
