Who Doesn't Love a Good Princess Story?

Who Doesn't Love a Good Princess Story?
Thursday, May 29, 2025 by Malinda Martin

Ever since the invention of stories, people have enjoyed tales of the poor, downtrodden maiden with a good heart, who is eventually elevated to princess of her country. Just think of (insert every beloved fairy tale ever!).

I suppose that any romance writer worth his or her salt eventually gets around to writing their own version of the princess story. Accidentally Royal is mine.

Meet Lillian Bell. Her childhood was different from most. Raised in a convent by her mother who had become a nun. She never knew her father or the circumstances that led them to the convent. All she knows is that their homeland is the island country of Kimbledon.

When her mother is dying, she makes Lillian promise to go back to Kimbledon. So, for the past eight years, Lillian has been making her way from America to the British principality. One day she’ll get there.

Meet William Jamison. An aide to the prince of Kimbledon, just as his father before him. He’s been taught honor to his country, and he’ll do anything to protect it. Even invent a ridiculous plan to install someone as the long-lost princess in order to keep the kingdom from falling into the hands of an unfit ruler.

Lillian Bell is that someone.

The biggest thing to love about princess stories is the happily ever after. I will read conflict after conflict, sadness, hardship, whatever if you’ll get me a big happily ever after at the end. I guarantee that Accidentally Royal gives just that, along with several big twists. I hope you’ll check it out at most online bookstores!
