What if America had a royal family?
When America won the Revolutionary War, its people offered General George Washington a crown. Two and a half centuries later, the House of Washington still sits on the throne.
As Princess Beatrice gets closer to becoming America's first queen regnant, the duty she has embraced her entire life suddenly feels stifling.
Nobody cares about the spare except when she's breaking the rules, so Princess Samantha doesn't care much about anything, either . . . except the one boy who is distinctly off-limits to her.
And then there's Samantha's twin, Prince Jefferson. If he'd been born a generation earlier, he would have stood first in line for the throne, but the new laws of succession make him third. Most of America adores their devastatingly handsome prince . . . but two very different girls are vying to capture his heart.

The first part of this story talked about how the royal family comes to be. It was at the end of the revolutionary war and they offered the Kingship to George Washington. The problem I had with this is that they reason they people fled from Europe and started the war is that they didn't want to be under a king. They wanted a democracy, so if George Washington and the people around them believed that, then why did he accept to be king.
This book was full of drama, drama, drama and some romance. They seemed to have first world problems, and some of them figure out that when it is pointed out by some who are less fortunate. I had to really listen as I was trying to keep track of all the characters and their storylines and how they interwove with each other. But in the end I just wanted to see how it ended and I am waiting for the next book to come into queue.
