Rowan Palotay doesn't get the best first impression in when she meets Prince Theodore Chenery while walking dog in the park. However after Theo sees her with his grandmother he request for her to be the one to do an article on him for the local paper. Theo has never had someone to be so outspoken with him like rowan is which only seems to bring them closer together. Rowan, who has made many mistakes in her life and career, is determined to do her article by the books. Will she be able to finish her article with her integrity in tact? I loved this book. It was well written from beginning to end and definitely kept me interested. The main characters seemed likable and really made me want to root for them to get there happily ever after.

This was a fun holiday story. Rowan is a journalist writing for the local paper, and trying to redeem her image. Theo is a prince who is in town to meet his maternal grandparents for the first time and see where his mother grew up. I really admired how hard Rowan worked to keep their relationship strictly professional - until the column she was writing about Theo was done anyway, and his engagement to someone else was called off. Theo and Rowan both had such sweet and fun personalities. I wish I could hang out with them in real life. They just seemed so real and likable.

"Once Upon A Royal Christmas" by Robin Bielman is a heartfelt romance. This is Rowan Palotay and Prince Theodore Chenery's story. Rowan, news reporter, has been demoted to the pet column due to a previous incident. She is having a hard time in her professional life and in her personal life. It's Christmas time so will this be a time of magic for Rowan? After his mother's death Prince Theodore Chenery decides to go to Marietta to meet his mother's parents for the first time. This visit is an emotional visit for Prince Theodore. He has agreed that when he gets back that his father can announce his arranged marriage. Prince Theodore always thought he would have a marriage like his mother and father but he will do whatever he needs to do for his country. When Rowan and Prince Theodore first met lets just say that it didn't go very well. As time goes on Rowan and Prince Theodore end up spending lots of time together. The couple is drawn to one another and the chemistry between them may be more than they can ignore. This is a sweet, romantic, and heartwarming story of two people who seem made for each other. But, Prince Chenery has a commitment to his country and Rowan is in the process of redeeming her professional career so will these two be able to find their happily ever after? FYI, includes mature content. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

How does one recover from literally running into a prince while dog walking? Rowan Palotay never expected meeting Prince Theo Chenery in this manner. Her life hasn’t quite gone as she planned lately. One minor mistake has her demoted to writing a small pet column in the Marietta newspaper. Rowan can’t figure out how she got on the naughty list nor how to get off. Christmas is supposed to be a time for joy and magic. Rowan is definitely not feeling it, at least until she is given the assignment of writing an article about the visiting prince. Prince Theodore Chenery, Theo, is visiting Marietta shortly after the death of his mother, the Queen. He needed to explore his mother’s past life, growing up in Marietta, and getting to know his grandparents, who he never knew. The accidental run-in with Rowan leads him to an unexpected friendship with this lively girl who is unlike anyone he’s met before. Her kindness and honesty makes is difficult to remember his obligations back home. Once their relationship makes worldwide news, Theo must decide whether to follow his heart or his royal duty. This was a sweet, fun and entertaining story with very likeable and authentic characters that you want to cheer on, hoping for that happy ending. The characters were well written with complex characteristics. The story line was riveting and kept my attention to the very end. I genuinely enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting this book down, reading it in one day. I highly recommend this book to other readers.

Prince Theodore Chenery was exotic, sexy and smelled really good according to Rowan Palotay. In my opinion it was Rowan's quirky, witty, "all out there and I won't apologize for it" attitude that was the star of this book. Rowan Palotay is a "take care of everyone else before yourself" type of person. She's great! Falling for a Prince that has an arranged marriage far away on some Mediterranean island is not in her future plans. Great story! I love the part of the story line that actually brought Theo to Montana. It gives this lighthearted Romance a little more emotional depth. This author has a fantastic writing style that always leaves you with a smile on your face at the end. I can't wait to see what's next!

Soooo good!! I adore Rowan. She's a little bit ditzy, a whole lot of fun, and so incredibly sweet you can't help but want her to find her HEA. One teeny tiny mistake at work has her on the hot seat and now she has one chance to get it right. Meeting Prince Theodore was her luckiest day ever. Well wrapping him up in the dog leashes wasn't her finest move but it worked out! Now she has the chance to redeem herself at the newspaper and right an in depth article on the Prince. And if that means spending more time with Theo - bonus! Theo is in Marietta to meet his Grandparents for the very first time. He grew up hearing about the quaint little town and his grandparents but this is the first time he has made the trip here. Meeting the feisty Rowan Palotay wasn't originally in the plans but sometimes the best things are those that are unplanned. This story is wonderfully written and these characters will steal your hear. I highly recommend this one.
