![]() ![]() ![]() On the whole the writing is bland and the characters are underdeveloped. We meet Vivian in The Wedding Party as she and Maddie have a close relationship born of a life of just the two of them, and while Vivian travels with Maddie to England for the set p of the book, we rarely see them interact and once Vivian is away from Maddie she loses any sense of who we have learned her to be. ![]() My main concern with Royal Holiday is that the characters could be anyone. The second of the bunch, The Proposal, is my favorite, and I think the most well written, but both 2019 releases, The Wedding Partyand Royal Holiday are each a dramatic step down in quality from the first two books. Jasmine Guillory launched onto the Romance scene two years ago with The Wedding Dateand has released four novels in that time. I was going to read this one in the week after Christmas but having taken a look at this year’s Read Harder Challenge I decided to wait until New Years since this is Guillory’s book featuring Maddie’s mom Vivian, who raised her by herself – take that task 14: Read a romance starring a single parent. ![]()
