Publisher Description
In the fourth installment of the bestselling series USA TODAY insists is one "for which you should reserve space on your keeper shelf," Rachel Hauck delivers a holiday romance for readers who dare to hope for happily ever after, even when one seems beyond reach.
"A stirring modern-day fairy tale about the power of true love." --Cindy Kirk
College volleyball star Avery Truitt hasn't set foot in Brighton Kingdom since Prince Colin shattered her heart five years ago. But now, the sadness of losing her father and the joy of her sister Susanna's pregnancy have brought Avery back to Brighton just in time for Cathedral City's enchanting Christmas season.
For Avery, Christmas in Brighton means facing Colin--now the Kingdom's most eligible bachelor--whether or not her heart is ready to relive the pain. And yet, seeing him again might bring her the closure she needs after all this time.
But Colin has his own battle to face. Drawn into a centuries-old tradition, he must decide whether to follow the path laid out before him or follow his heart to the only woman he would ever vow to love.
Can he convince Avery to meet him at the chapel on Christmas morning as tradition dictates, or will she leave Brighton Kingdom--and him--behind forever?
Whether you're experiencing Hauck's signature storytelling for the first time or feeling the bittersweet farewell to a series that has captured your heart, A Royal Christmas Wedding will leave you inspired, hopeful, and longing for more.
Dive into the Royal Wedding series (Once Upon a Prince, Princess Ever After, and How to Catch a Prince) and experience Hauck's unique brand of royal-style romance.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
American volleyball star Avery Truitt believes she has gotten over her long-past teenage love, Prince Colin of Brighton Kingdom, who stood her up four and a half years ago. But when she leaves Georgia to visit the kingdom, where her sister is married to the king, she realizes she is not as over the handsome young prince as she thinks she is. Colin is now dating an actress, but the appearance of Avery at the palace causes him to doubt his past decisions and plans for his future. When people start talking about the tradition of the Chapel Tower bell in which a man rings the bell at midnight to declare his love and asks the woman he loves to marry him on Christmas Day Colin protests any desire to ring the bell. Two nosy TV personalities keep the media abuzz with the royal romance, or lack thereof, and add a touch of humor to Hauck's (The Wedding Dress) sweet love story of a royal prince and a down-home girl at Christmastime.

Christmas Wedding
Sweet story set in a storybook country. I could see the beauty of the land and feel the love.
A delightful contemporary Christmas romance!
This is part of a “true” series. I believe that you need to read the books in order to fully follow the story line and get the full enjoyment out of them. I have to admit that I haven’t read the previous books myself. There were a number of times that I felt like I was a little confused because of that.
The setting in Brighton Kingdom is the stuff that fairy tales are made of. The introduction of the history behind the bell ringing just after midnight after the Harvest Ball completely set the stage for me.
I absolutely love these characters. There is a wonderful amount of detail for a number of the characters. This includes Avery Truitt, Prince Colin and those that are closest to both of them.
Both Avery and Prince Colin are dealing with their own emotional conflicts. Their feelings for each other are competing with the desire to live the life they believe they are supposed to live. They are trying to trust God to lead them along the path that He has planned for them.
I am highly recommending this charming story and giving it a rating of 5 stars.
