The final book in Nicole Pyland’s Royal Series, Awaiting, had me hooked from the first page. I was eager to read Alex and Bexley’s story when I got the first hint that they would have one in the last book.

Alex is the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom; the first openly out lesbian and has a bit of a reputation as a player. In reality, though, she wants to find love, only on her own terms, and not a woman of her mother’s choosing. She struggles to feel she deserves the role that she was born into but works hard to carry out responsibilities.

From the moment Alex met Bexley back in Arriving, Alice and Nora’s world, she knew that this was the woman she wanted. Only Bexley wasn’t single, so she stood back and waited. Now, with Bexley back in Kleinland to help her friends, Alice jumps at the chance to set her two best friends up.

Pyland’s writing style of witty, fast-paced dialogue and character-driven plots is on point in Awaiting. The story is relevant and could translate so easily into today's society, and wouldn’t it be great if it did!

Like all of Pyland’s books, Awaiting could be read out of order, or even alone, but the reader would be missing such a big chunk of the other characters� lives and backstories, and this is what makes these series such a standout to me.
