RELEASE REVIEW: A Prince on Paper by Alyssa Cole

Title: A Prince on Paper 

Author: Alyssa Cole 
Series: Reluctant Royals, #3
Publisher: Avon 
Publication Date: April 30, 2019

Synopsis: 
The Reluctant Royals series returns with a good girl searching for the life that’s not too big, and not too small, and the bad boy prince who might be just right for her…

Nya Jerami fled Thesolo for the glitz and glamour of NYC but discovered that her Prince Charming only exists in her virtual dating games. When Nya returns home for a royal wedding, she accidentally finds herself up close and personal—in bed—with the real-life celebrity prince who she loves to hate.

For Johan von Braustein, the red-headed step-prince of Liechtienbourg, acting as paparazzi bait is a ruse that protects his brother—the heir to the throne—and his own heart. When a royal referendum threatens his brother’s future, a fake engagement is the perfect way to keep the cameras on him.

Nya and Johan both have good reasons to avoid love, but as desires are laid bare behind palace doors, they must decide if their fake romance will lead to a happily-ever-after.

Sonja’s Review


I’ve heard what an amazing writer Alyssa Cole is, so when the opportunity to read one of her books came about, I jumped on it! And of course, me being me, I started with the third book in her Reluctant Royals series, A Prince on Paper, instead of reading the first book like a normal person would. It all worked out though because I really loved it and now I’m even more eager to get started on the rest of the series! A Prince on Paper was excellent and I enjoyed it so much!

It was easy to fall in love with Nya and Johan, they’re so cute and sweet together and on their own, they squeezed my heart and made it ache. They’re absolutely perfect and aren’t what everyone assumes them to be. They see each other, inspire one another, and push themselves to be better, stronger people. I just absolutely adored Nya and Johan — they’re wonderful!

I went into A Prince on Paper doubly blind because I only vaguely skimmed the synopsis and since Alyssa Cole was new to me, I didn’t know exactly what to expect, though I did expect great things and I definitely got it! It was fun and made me laugh and giggle quite a bit. It amused me and tugged on my heartstrings and made me want to wrap my arms around the characters and surround them with love. A Prince on Paper was fantastic and heartwarming and I’m so happy that Nya and Johan got their happily-ever-after and I really hope that Ms. Cole writes Lukas’ book sometime in the future!
