The Heir and the Spare Emily Albright Books

YA Royal Romances are some of my favorite YA books ever since I read The Selection. I had been interested in this one for a while before I bought it but from reading the sample, I was unsure if the writing style was my type. Then one day I saw it was for sale on Amazon and decided I might as well try it out. A little while later, I noticed that there would be a sequel published later this year after looking around the author's website and sent the publisher an email asking if ARC's were available. They generously sent me a copy in the mail a few weeks later but due to my hectic school schedule at the time, I didn't really have a chance to read TH&TS until this November. And I think waiting until then was a good thing because you know how sometimes it just feels like the right time to have read a book and that means you have a good reading experience with the book? Well, that happened to me with this book. It really felt like the right time to have read this book.

After the first few chapters, I was able to push my weird feelings for the writing style aside (although they did pop up a little later but didn't really interfere with my experience) and just continue on with the book. The romance begins almost immediately on in the book but isn't really acted on until later. That was nice. I found myself really rooting for the Evie and Edmund and really disliking Jax. I found the whole search from Evie's mom to be a little weird but it kind of goes away for a lot of the story so I won't focu on that too much. I think the things holding me back from anything above a 3 are Preston, the whole Huck Finn-like switch in story, and the Evie/Edmund scene near the end.

1. Preston - I hated how the author started to push him into liking Evie halfway through the book. It felt way too forced and made me start to dislike his character more and more every time he tried something with Evie.

2.The Switch - Just like in Huck Finn, the author switches from a story that is versatile in setting and characters to one that is stale with them. This book goes from Evie's college experience and all the people in it to her at her boring grandmother's place with only her grandmother and her butler.

3.The Evie/Edmund Scene - I hate when authors use sex as a plot device, especially in YA books and when the characters haven't even been married or together very long. It's extremely unnecessary and frustrates me to no end.

Okay, now that I've spent a little time sharing what I've disliked about this one, I'd like to share what I did enjoy. I loved the romance (YA Royalty plots! <3) and the visuals this book gave me. My favorite was Edmund's ski chateau. The image I got in my mind was the most beautiful and exquisite place and I really loved spending time there.

I really liked this one but a combo of the three things I mentioned above just killed any rating above a 3 for me.

The Heir and the Spare Emily Albright Books Reviews

I'm not sure why the bad reviews. This book lived up to all of my expectations based on the description. It's a fun, romantic read that flies by. I read it quickly and fell in love with all the characters. Everyone had their own unique quirks and personalities. I was rooting for the main characters the whole time. The mystery became a little obvious earlier in the story than the characters discovered it, but that was about all. If you are looking for a fun, flirty, and clean romance set at Oxford in Brittain, this is the five-star read for you!
Don’t usually buy books this short but the price was right ... I read it in an afternoon, enjoying every chapter. The story evolves slowly over the course of a year at Oxford where the spare heir to the British throne meets a young American student - who doesn’t recognize him... She comes to Oxford on a quest from her deceased mother to discover her past.... I found myself lost in a story that ended way too soon.
This was an endearingly sweet read. I loved the blooming relationship between Edmund and Evie, and, even with all the push and pull between them, I was an endless pile of swoon. It's like all my childhood princess fantasies had come to life between these pages! Definitely one I rec if you're in the mood for something a little lighter in the contemporary world.
I really didn't want this one to end. Yes it's the classic poor girl falls in love with prince story but it grabbed a hold of me and dug it's nails in me fast. I think I've been off my meds for too long.... *scurries to refill Med box finally*
If you loved The Royal We, you will love this book. Not quite as long or as in-depth as TRW, it still had the same flair and feel-good storyline. The characters were lovable from the get-go and three dimensional. The subplots kept the story moving right along and there was enough of London history and trivia to make the reader feel a part of the experience. It was a great afternoon's read and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a story about royals, England or just enjoys a good romance. With The Heir and the Spare, you get all three. I will eagerly await anything else Emily Albright writes.
Evie, a student from Seattle, goes to college at Oxford, never dreaming that her new gang of friends includes Edmund, Prince of England. As they get to know each, they fall in love. But will the secret Evie harbors tear them apart? Her mother heralds from this land and has left Evie clues to her background. What was so secret that her mom couldn’t even tell her dad? As she follows the trail, Evie learns things about herself that could make her relationship with Edmund easier, or harder if she has to give up the life she knows. This pleasantly diverting story will provide hours of delightful escape into a fairy-tale world. The plot is fairly predictable but charming nonetheless. I’ll look forward to reading more of Evie’s adventures.
Okay, finally broke down and bought the book. Still a bit pricey considering the number of pages but have been wanting to read it since it first came out. Glad I did because I am absolutely putting this book on my reread list! Great story with lots of turbulence, a rollercoaster of emotions for all the characters. The only thing that could have made this better would have been getting Edmund's POV. Would really have liked to know what took him so long to tell the evil witch in the story off.

My only pet peeve was Evie during her total chick moments. You know, when you are waiting for a woman to buck up and take the bull by the horns but instead you feel like they are flopping around like a fish out of water. I really wanted her to be more confident in herself. Good thing her hero had unending patience with her flip-flopping emotions.

Have to say, the funniest part to me was the lessons she got from grandma. That woman was from another time era, flower arranging, horticulture, stain removal, LOL! Thought we we had switched to a historical romance novel for a bit.

Overall, very great read. Highly recommend this one.
