Royally Screwed Audiobook – The Royally Series, Book 1

As I settled into my cozy corner, the soft glow of the evening sun filtering through the curtains, I pressed play on “Royally Screwed” by Emma Chase. The world outside faded away as the charming narrations of Andi Arndt and Shane East transported me to a snow-dusted Manhattan, where royalty collided with the ordinary in a way that was both enchanting and utterly relatable.

The premise of this contemporary romance is one that many dream of: a prince meets a commoner. But not just any commoner—Olivia Hammond, a witty waitress whose life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook, the Crowned Prince of Wessco. Their initial encounter, marked by a pie flung in Nicholas’s face, sets the tone for a whirlwind romance filled with humor, tension, and undeniable chemistry.

I found myself chuckling at Olivia’s boldness and Nicholas’s charming arrogance. Their banter felt genuine, like eavesdropping on two friends teasing each other over coffee. The narrators brought their characters to life beautifully; Andi’s portrayal of Olivia was spirited and full of sass, while Shane’s deep voice perfectly encapsulated Nicholas’s royal charm with just the right hint of roguishness.

As I listened for nearly ten hours, I became immersed in their love story—a tale that balanced fairy tale fantasy with real-world challenges. The couple faces relentless paparazzi and disapproving family members which made me ponder on how love can sometimes feel like navigating a minefield. I appreciated the way Emma Chase tackled these issues; it was both entertaining and thought-provoking.

However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. There were moments when I felt the plot wandered into cliché territory—some dialogues seemed recycled from other romance novels—and there were explicit scenes that momentarily took me out of my dreamy reverie. Yet somehow, even amidst these reservations, I found myself rooting for them; their journey felt authentic enough to keep me engaged.

Listening to “Royally Screwed” also reminded me of my own experiences with love in unexpected places—the kind that catches you off guard when you’re least prepared for it. It’s those moments that make life so rich and unpredictable. This audiobook is not just about royal duties versus personal desires; it’s about the universal struggle between societal expectations and true happiness.

By the time I reached the last chapter, my heart raced alongside Olivia’s as she faced her own dilemmas about love and duty. The ending left me both satisfied yet eager for more—a sign of a good series opener if there ever was one!

If you’re seeking a delightful escape filled with laughter, romance, and relatable dilemmas wrapped in a royal bow, “Royally Screwed” is your ticket. Grab your headphones or check it out on Ezaudiobookforsoul.com—trust me; you won’t regret getting lost in this modern fairy tale.
