The story starts mostly from Reed\u2019s POV. The readers get to understand who he really is and why he made some of the decisions that he did. He is truly about his family for the most part. His feelings for <strong>Ella<\/strong> are legit, but he has some groveling to do to win her back.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">I like that<strong> Reed<\/strong> didn\u2019t get to win the girl back so easily. The brothers seem to accept Ella\u2019s position in the house now, and I even started to warm up to them. There is a lot of pain and hurt from the past, which slowly comes to the forefront. There is so much to unpack, and the author reveals everything slowly.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Ella still has to deal with the crap from the bullies at school. I know this is young adult\/teenage romance, but I\u2019m over the drama with the school setting. I want to skim past it at this point, but I can\u2019t miss a thing.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><strong>Callum<\/strong> makes a huge change, and he shocks me towards the end. He is more aware of what is going on than I have given him credit for. I wonder what really happened to him in the past. The women in his life are crazy but without reason. I need their characters and motives to be fleshed out more to understand the chaos surrounding them. \u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Of course, the drama is over the top. Things really don\u2019t make sense in the real world, but of course, this is fiction, so everything makes sense. Despite this, I am completely hooked on this series. I need to know what is happening with Gideon and a certain person. Can that work itself out? What really happened with Reed that night? How can he get out of it?<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Then there is the ending, a surprise twist, and now I must dive into book three without pause. Fans who like YA romance with a darker twist.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Samantha<\/em><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_jqu6949 customBorderRad repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/46xUOcP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/48XLPTI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">iBooks<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/broken-prince-erin-watt\/1123605123?ean=9780593642160\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">B&amp;N<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/broken-prince-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Kobo<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Erin_Watt_Broken_Prince?id=tbjHEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n            \t    <\/div>\n\t    <!-- \/row_inner -->\n\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/module_row -->\n\t<\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These Royals will ruin you\u2026Reed Royal has it all\u2014looks, status, money.

The girls at his elite prep school line up to date him, the guys want to be him, but Reed never gave a damn about anyone but his family until Ella Harper walked into his life.<br \/><br \/>What started off as burning resentment and the need to make his father\u2019s new ward suffer turned into something else entirely\u2014keep Ella close. Keep Ella safe. But when one foolish mistake drives her out of Reed\u2019s arms and brings chaos to the Royal household, Reed\u2019s entire world begins to fall apart around him.<br \/><br \/>Ella doesn\u2019t want him anymore. She says they\u2019ll only destroy each other.<br \/><br \/>She might be right.<br \/><br \/>Secrets. Betrayal. Enemies. It\u2019s like nothing Reed has ever dealt with before, and if he\u2019s going to win back his princess, he\u2019ll need to prove himself Royally worthy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/smitten-recommends-banner-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"72\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Oct 17, 2023<br \/><strong>Series:<\/strong> <em>The Royals<br \/><\/em><strong>Book:\u00a0<\/strong>2<br \/><strong>Heat Level:<\/strong> Hot<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0Penguin Group<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong>\u00a0Berkley\u00a0<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $10.99<\/p><hr \/><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><strong>Broken Prince<\/strong> picks up where <strong>Paper Princess<\/strong> leaves off. The story starts mostly from Reed\u2019s POV. The readers get to understand who he really is and why he made some of the decisions that he did. He is truly about his family for the most part. His feelings for <strong>Ella<\/strong> are legit, but he has some groveling to do to win her back.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">I like that<strong> Reed<\/strong> didn\u2019t get to win the girl back so easily. The brothers seem to accept Ella\u2019s position in the house now, and I even started to warm up to them. There is a lot of pain and hurt from the past, which slowly comes to the forefront. There is so much to unpack, and the author reveals everything slowly.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Ella still has to deal with the crap from the bullies at school. I know this is young adult\/teenage romance, but I\u2019m over the drama with the school setting. I want to skim past it at this point, but I can\u2019t miss a thing.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><strong>Callum<\/strong> makes a huge change, and he shocks me towards the end. He is more aware of what is going on than I have given him credit for. I wonder what really happened to him in the past. The women in his life are crazy but without reason. I need their characters and motives to be fleshed out more to understand the chaos surrounding them. \u00a0<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Of course, the drama is over the top. Things really don\u2019t make sense in the real world, but of course, this is fiction, so everything makes sense. Despite this, I am completely hooked on this series. I need to know what is happening with Gideon and a certain person. Can that work itself out? What really happened with Reed that night? How can he get out of it?<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\">Then there is the ending, a surprise twist, and now I must dive into book three without pause. Fans who like YA romance with a darker twist.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Samantha<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/46xUOcP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/48XLPTI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/broken-prince-erin-watt\/1123605123?ean=9780593642160\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/broken-prince-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Erin_Watt_Broken_Prince?id=tbjHEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30669","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30669"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30669\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30675,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30669\/revisions\/30675"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30669"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
