This book was filled with some fun moments, though parts of it didn’t seem believable. Maybe I’ve seem too many Hallmark movies with the prince marries commoner theme, and that’s coloring my opinion.

Emma is very likeable, though she doesn’t believe that true love exists and thinks that compatibility and common interests are the secret to a successful relationship. She has big dreams for her career and is devoted to her father and godmother.

Michel is mostly likeable and is very entrenched in the traditions of his country. He wants to marry for love rather than the arranged marriage his parents set up when he was a child.

They are incredibly different in some really big ways, but in truth, in all the ways that really count, they are very much alike. Emma opens Michel up to fun and adventure, Michel opens Emma up to the possibility of love and hope.

I loved the supporting characters as well, especially Sophie, and the side plots were one of my favorite parts of this book.

All in all, this was a fun read.
