When Adelaide Smith stops working as a barista it's so she can focus up on finishing her law degree. But when she gets a mysterious letter in the mail saying she is the long lost princess of Montovia, she puts those plans on hold to go visit her long lost father, the king. When she arrives he is on his deathbed; so she devotes the holiday season to getting to know him better. There is one person who is not happy to see her in the palace and that is the queen. She has designs to put her son (the king's stepson) on the throne. Adelaide finds herself being won over by the small European country and its quaint Christmas customs. It doesn't hurt that Anton, the friendly diplomat guiding her around, is charming and sweet. Can Adelaide picture herself ruling someday? Or does she need to go home to finish her law degree? It definitely reads like a Hallmark Christmas movie but that does not make it any less of a read. The perfect Christmas novella for those who love rags to riches, or in this case, rags to royalty.
