About this listen

Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook, Crowned Prince of Wessco, aka His Royal Hotness, is wickedly charming, devastatingly handsome, and unabashedly arrogant - hard not to be when people are constantly bowing down to you.

Then, one snowy night in Manhattan, the prince meets a dark-haired beauty who doesn't bow down. Instead she throws a pie in his face.

Nicholas wants to find out if she tastes as good as her pie, and this heir apparent is used to getting what he wants.

Dating a prince isn't what waitress Olivia Hammond ever imagined it would be.

There's a disapproving queen, a wildly inappropriate spare heir, relentless paparazzi, and brutal public scrutiny. While they've traded in horse-drawn carriages for Rolls Royces and haven't chopped anyone's head off lately, the royals are far from accepting of this commoner.

But to Olivia, Nicholas is worth it.

Nicholas grew up with the whole world watching, and now Marriage Watch is in full force. In the end Nicholas has to decide who he is and, more importantly, who he wants to be: a king or the man who gets to love Olivia forever.

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!

Shane East makes this book!

Where does Royally Screwed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It's certainly not the most amazing book I've ever come across but it was exactly what I wanted to listen to. I was in the mood for a book about royalty and lives they struggle with. I would certainly reccomend it if you are looking for something with a healthy amount of steamy scenes but manages to keep the story rolling.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved Nick, or more so I loved the voice of Nick. Shane East has an excellent voice and I loved listening to his parts.

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

I would have to say the most moving scene of the book would be near the end where Nick has a few things tot say to the world on TV. I think it was an excellent way to bring everything together. However I did feel quite sorry for his brother and what was forced upon him.

Heart-stoppingly Good

As always, Emma Chase hit this one out of the park!

Shane East made my heart swoon with his mad narration skills. And I'll forgive Ms. Chase for making me blubber like a fool at one point in this book because the ending was so very much a HEA I couldn't wipe the smile off my face for hours.

I'm downloading the next book in this series now and I suggest you do the same!

I’m a sucker for a modern day fairy tail...

So, I saw most of the reviews were really good and figured I’d give this a try. Usually I’m not into the whole “Prince Charming falls in love with Cinderella” sort of story but this was actually really good. AND relatable, somehow? It’s as if something like this could really happen in real life to any every day person reading this. It was funny, charming, and romantic—without making you gag because of how corny it is. The characters are all really well developed and lovable; even the Queen at times, in my opinion. Give it a read. It was a heart warmer.

Thoroughly enjoyed as escapism

This was so much fun! A modern take on the Cinderella fairy tale, without the evil step mother, and yes we knew how it was going to end, but who cares with all the feel good. A smile on your face read with some laugh out loud moments. I really enjoyed this as an audible listen.

Worth the read

The only part of this book that I really didn't care much for is when the male narrator goes into a female voice it's kind of disturbing. Otherwise a really good book.

Royally Hooked

Stayed up late finishing this read along with the audio. This I believe is my first book I have read of Emma's. I've had it in my TBR for awhile and read it in two days. I loved this story! A modern day Cinderella falling for a bad boy prince. I laughed, I gasped, I hurt for the characters. Loved them! The narration was wonderful to listen too as well. Love Shane East! Sexy voice! Love Andi! She always does amazing! Looking forward to reading the rest of this series! And read more from Emma! xo
