_reading_with_kate_'s review against another edition
While some of the humor in this was not to my taste, the reference to a nsync jukebox musical being on broadway is all I've ever wanted.

First impression 9/5/21: The characters felt a little YA to be approaching 30 years old, much more than can be accounted for by imposter syndrome.
It's definitely not a RW&RB derivative, so if you're concerned about that, the only resemblance is that it's about a redheaded prince.

The plot had the potential to make for a really interesting book, but I felt it was all too rushed. No sooner had they met then they were already at a family wedding. A bit more development and a few more cutesy moments and it would be an amazing read.

I always enjoy a good love story, but I’m not sure this is one. There was little chemistry between them for most of the book (there were rare moments like the first “I love you”). I tried so hard not to compare this to Red, White, and Royal Blue, but it’s so hard. I give it a 3.5/5 because it was correctly labeled a romcom (heavy on the “com”), I liked the characters individually, and I liked the diversity.

I really wanted to love this one but it just didn't happen. Personally I felt like the chemistry between Carter & Edgar was lacking. While I appreciate that Edgar was an out and proud Prince the rest just fell short.
