Publisher Description
Princes have pomp and glory—not crushes on commoners
Nothing gets the tongues of London’s high society wagging like a good scandal. And when the personal secretary of the visiting Prince Sebastian of Alucia is found murdered, it’s all anyone can talk about, including Eliza Tricklebank. Her unapologetic gossip gazette has benefited from an anonymous tip about the crime, prompting Sebastian to take an interest in playing detective—and an even greater interest in Eliza.
With a trade deal on the line and mounting pressure to secure a noble bride, there’s nothing more salacious than a prince dallying with a commoner. Sebastian finds Eliza’s contrary manner as frustrating as it is seductive, but they’ll have to work together if they’re going to catch the culprit. And when things heat up behind closed doors, it’s the prince who’ll have to decide what comes first—his country or his heart.
Don’t miss The Duke Not Taken from New York Times bestselling author Julia London! A delicious and playful new frenemies-to-lovers romance set in Victorian England.

Delightful Friends To Lovers Story
I received an ARC of this book to read through NetGalley in exchange for a fair review. The Princess Plan by Julia London is the first book in her exciting new series A Royal Wedding.
Eliza Tricklebank is fairly settled in her life as a spinster she cares for her father and enjoys the company of her sister and her friends along with the small freedoms that come with being a spinster such as the ability to go for a walk on ones own and to be able to say what one thinks. She is excited to attend a Masquerade Ball and perhaps meeting a prince might be a fine thing and once she meets the prince perhaps a kiss would be something to savour in her old age, but then she kisses him, and somehow that’s not enough. Prince Sebastian Charles Iver Chartier, Crown Prince of Alucia and Duke of Sansonleon has come to England to forge a trade agreement for his troubled small country and as well to find a suitable bride to help cement relations between Alucia and England. He’s never before met someone who sees him a just a man, and an annoying one at that and when his secretary is murdered he feels that Eliza is one of the few people he can trust to tell him the truth and solve the murder mystery. This is a lovely friends to lovers story and I enjoyed it very much. Medium Steam.
