Royally Screwed

A TRUE ADULT FAIRYTALE

The Publisher's Summary is spot on but I'll give a little more detail without spoilers.

Wessco's economy isn't doing well so the Queen tells Nicholas that he's to marry. They agree he has until the end of summer to make the announcement. Then the Queen tells Nicholas he needs to go to Manhattan to attend some functions for her and bring Henry home. Henry, the Spare Heir, has finished serving the required two years in the queens military and is in the U.S. partying way too much.

Nicholas has his best friend Simon go to Manhattan with him along with his security team. He's upset about the marriage arrangement and is out late drunk walking. He goes into the coffee house that Olivia runs and her family owns. Nicholas is smitten with Olivia. The more she banters with him the more smitten he is so he offers her ten thousand dollars to go to bed with him. This is their story......

I adore Emma Chase. I have her Legal Briefs Series and her Tangled Series. I listen to these when I want fun and sexy. This story starts out with the Monarch history and I wasn't sure about it, but Emma Chase has never let me down so I kept listening and the story turned into fun, sexy, drama, suspense and twists. There's hot sex too.

Andi Arndt, one of my favorite female performers and Shane East gave a great performance.

Is it worth the Credit/$$ Absolutely. I enjoyed it so much I listened to it twice in a row.

An Enchanting Swoon Worthy Tale!

Royally Screwed is perfect for the "romantic at heart" who loves a beautifully well written heart-warming story that will captivate, mesmerize and make you swoon. It's a similar to fairy tale plot about handsome prince who goes after the love of his life, and well on it's way to being a classic for future generations.

I remember reading fairytales like Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel and many more when I was a little girl. These stories fascinated me and I could easily read them over and over. I still have a piece of that little girl's heart who believes in fairy tales and HEA's and Emma Chase has delivered a beautiful, enchanting, steamy fairytale that not only delivered the HEA that made my heart swoon, but also satisfied the women in me who craves a seductively steamy story that got my heart racing, and made me blush. This was fantastic story, I could easily listen to again and again.

I loved the narrators! Andi Arndt was a great choice for the female POV and Shane East was perfect for the male POV. They both delivered an outstanding performance.

Well worth the time, credit and sale!

Royally Delightful

Emma Chase has done it again. Conventional love story with a sexy steamy British-ish twist. And, Lord have mercy! Shane East is a narration knock-out. The British version of Sebastian York and every bit as yummy. If you're looking for a strong woman character that's not naive and speaks her mind then you'll enjoyed this book. The secondary plot lines with the Prince's brother is good too. Probably Offers a brief glimpse of what their RH's William and Harry had to endure and what American actress Megan Markel is going through now. Hope she ends up with the prince too.

Cinderella is no pushover

Prince of Wessco visits NYC and falls for the waitress. She is different from other females. She's confident and not a pushover for ANY man not even a prince. He pursues her and the whole world takes notice. Emma Chase didn't disappoint! The prince is a dirty talking alpha and this listen has hot scenes. I can't wait for his brother's book this month! I like EC books so it was worth my credit.

Nicholas is My Prince and I'm His Princess

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

100000% Recommended!!!

Andi Arndt and Shane East were just perfect for Olivia and Nicholas. They transmited every single one of their emotions flawlessly-love, passion, anger, dissapointment, relief-, and they also read Emma's words with such conviction like they were written by them.

Andi has a beautiful voice, sweet and sexy, but also strong for when Olivia was being her badass self. Shane has the most amazing and sensual British accent ever!! I wasn't so happy with him for Hardin Scott from the After Series but his smooth voice, his accent, his attitude in this audio is just so perfect for Nicholas.

Both of them made awesome inflections for the secondary characters. Andi's British accent was really great too and Shane's voice for The Queen was so stiff I almost thought it was actually an old woman talking instead of him.

What did you like best about this story?

Nicholas and Olivia's romance!! I fell in love with them at the same time they were falling for each other. Every moment they spent together, every talk, every kiss, every time they made love, everything made me love them more and more with every passing minute <3 Theirs is really a true fairy tale <3

Which scene was your favorite?

So many fav scenes!! I loved when they met for the first time-Go Olivia!!-, I loved when Olivia invited Nicholas to Coney Island, I loved when they told each other things nobody else knew, I loved the shaving scene, I loved the heartbreaking moment with Henry at the hospital. Sighhhhh I could go on, because I LOVED everything about this book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were two moments, the first one with Olivia telling about the burden with so much responsabilities at such young age-not telling more, spoilers, but I cried twice, the first time I read it and when I listened to it-, and the second with Henry's experience when he was in the military service. He has such a beautiful heart and I can't wait for his book.

Any additional comments?

Royally Screwed is my new #1 book from the amazing Emma Chase. I've loved all her books, and I've obsessed over all the men she has written, and RS and Nicholas are now my new obsession. I loved reading it as much as i loved listening to it. I loved the romance, I had googly eyes-just like Henry kept calling Olivia and Nicholas-every minute I was listening to this story, I cried and laughed and felt all the passion they felt. Royally Screwed is easily one of the books books I've read in my entire life <3

A sexy bombshell waiting to go off in your hands!

To begin with, I adored these narrators! Shane East's voice is perfection and Andi Arndt does a great job! Improved the experience of reading this book!

The experience of reading a book usually comes down to three things for me.

First, characters. That connections with the characters is the most important piece for me. And I truly did love these two. Nicholas has been raised a Prince and as nice as that sounds, in reality it's a royal pain in the a$$. But he's developed the best qualities from it and I adore his protective, loyal ways. AND he's one HOT royal! Definitely has some dirty, sexy ideas. I may never look at shaving my legs the same way again. And then there is Olivia. She's a New Yorker and is barely getting by. But she has the backbone to get things done and she is one of the good ones. True and human through and through. Together, these two have some serious heat - maybe a bit too much for me - but sexy sparks are in every possible way and place. Hehe

Second, the story. Great characters are important but if their story falls short, what difference does it make. These two have an emotional story that is jammed full of lots of joy, love, pain and happiness coupled with an impossible situation. Yeah, this story will suck you in and have you stuck in it's pages.

Finally, the writing. I consider several things with this one. What person is it written in? How well does the writing help me connect to the characters? Did the author tie up all the strings for me? Where there any glaring errors that had me taking pause? Mostly, I was happy with this aspect of the book. It's written in third persona with alternating points of view. I enjoy that type of third person the best. I still felt very connected to the characters. Perhaps my one problem were a few loose ends. I still want to know a couple minor details that are sprinkled throughout the book. Nothing major, mind you, but I always feel a polished author ties those all up for the reader.

Overall, this book is a sexy bombshell that's waiting to go off in your hands (or eReader as the case may be). I read it quickly and thoroughly enjoyed it. It sets the stage for Prince Henry's story and I definitely want to read that one.

It would make the coldest nights thaw for you so if that's your thing, pick this one up!

Absolute perfection!!!

A new spin on a old fairy tail. This version is even more magical than the original and beautifully combines all the romantic fairy tales from the past and gives them a modern twist... one that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat in nail biting anticipation. Very few authors have had the ability to bring me to tears however Emma Chase has managed to do it time and again. Deep down is a true romantic who has the literary grace to bring down the house. As always, hey choice in narrator's is superb. Andi Arndt has quickly become one of my favorite female narrators and Shane East has quickly risen to the top of my list for favorite male narrators.... together they are pure magic!!!

Overall I say well done.... I'm absolutely on pins and needles in anticipation of the next book... please don't make us wait too long your majesty. 😘
