Royal Rebel is a great bit of lighthearted royal romance from Laramie Briscoe. I love that Tristan and Amelia seem to just fit together right from the start rather than the butting heads and fake romance that we so often see in this type of story. The marriage may be arranged, but this couple lucks out with each other. They're compatible, they have great chemistry, and they are absolutely adorable together. They do have a few growing pains, mostly from outside sources, but problems are easily resolved, and the whole thing is an entertaining and engaging read. This is just the first book in the series, so how this couple does now that they have the titles remains to be seen. Laramie Briscoe always gives great characters, and this one is no different, so I'll be anxiously awaiting what comes next for this couple.

There’s a feeling in this book that it’s very much part one of a series. There aren’t the big, dramatic conflicts I’ve come to expect in a stand-alone romance. However, it’s easy to see that a lot of care and attention have been given to setting the stage for them in the future. As such, this story has a slower build-up. I also thought it has a bit more of a ‘literary fiction’ feel to it since it focuses so much on the characters. And that’s in no way a bad thing. We get lots of page time to fall in love with Tristan and Amelia as they fall in love with one another, as well as time to fall in love with the land Haldonia itself. They were very easy to fall for. I loved how down-to-earth both Tristan and Amelia are. They may be about to become the most powerful people in their kingdom, but neither of them takes advantage of that power. They’re also not perfect; they have their vulnerabilities and several trunks of emotional baggage. I’ve become very invested in their story and I can’t wait to see what comes next. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author through Give Me Books Promotions.

An interesting take on an arranged royal marriage that was well written. Amelia and Tristan are wonderful characters who have sizzling chemistry. I was drawn into their storyline and enjoyed the way they got to know each other and fall in love. I can't wait to see what will come next in The Haldonia Monarchy series. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
