Evie is a dress maker who is a favorite of the spirited Princess Celeste. The princess invites Evie to go with the royal family on a tour of the kingdom as mistress of the wardrobe. Evie is nervous to go because of her stormy past in some of the provinces they will be visiting, but Celeste is hard to turn down. She is amazed when she finds she has been accepted in the royals' inner circle and is the particular favorite of Crown Prince Frederick. She resists his attentions, sure that when Frederick discovers her real past, it will end their budding relationship forever.
This is the 5th and final book in the Four Kingdoms series. I have enjoyed this series. They are a formulaic, but I there are enough little variations to keep them interesting and entertaining. This one is less thrilling than The Princess Game because, instead of fighting the bad guys, Evie is mostly fighting her own insecurities, but sometimes the battles with ourselves are the hardest ones. I think this whole series is a good choice for either teens or adults who want clean romance books with a little added adventure and magic. (2018, 308 p.)
