Twisted Palace (The Royals #3) By Erin Watt



These Royals will ruin you… 

From mortal enemies to unexpected allies, two teenagers try to protect everything that matters most.

Ella Harper has met every challenge that life has thrown her way. She’s tough, resilient, and willing to do whatever it takes to defend the people she loves, but the challenge of a long-lost father and a boyfriend whose life is on the line might be too much for even Ella to overcome. 

Reed Royal has a quick temper and even faster fists. But his tendency to meet every obstacle with violence has finally caught up with him. If he wants to save himself and the girl he loves, he’ll need to rise above his tortured past and tarnished reputation.

No one believes Ella can survive the Royals. Everyone is sure Reed will destroy them all. 

They may be right.

With everything and everyone conspiring to keep them apart, Ella and Reed must find a way to beat the law, save their families, and unravel all the secrets in their Twisted Palace. 



Broken Prince ended with one of the best cliffhangers I've read this year. Not only do we find out Ella's dad is alive, but Reed is arrested for Brooke's murder. 

The book starts where the last one left off and although it took me a few chapters to get into, I did. I love this series. Nothing could have stopped me from reading it. And I'm glad I stuck to reading it. 
The intensity of the book, the story and the situation was unreal. Reed is facing prison, all for a crime we know he didn't do. Although the evidence is making him guilty. 
I had my suspicions from the very start, my own theory and when it all came to light, I was right. Although, some parts I didn't see coming. 

Ella is allowed to stay at the Royal's while her father regroups as sorts, but the second he finds out she's with Reed, all bets are off. He takes charge, ordering her around and demanding she break up with him. 
I couldn't stand him. I really couldn't. I understood Ella's friends explanation of his actions, but those only explain REAL parents. Her dad isn't really her dad. He hasn't been there for 17 years of her life then he comes back, swoops in and is ordering her around like a dog. 
He gets her fired, moved into a hotel with him and his wife, who we know hates Ella, make her break up with Reed, although this doesn't happen, they just make him believe it did. She has a curfew, strictly so she's forbidden to see the Royals and has to start a school activity. 
Then whole situation with him made my blood boil and for someone who has had no problem saying whats on her mind, Ella did disappoint me when she didn't stand up to her father or tell him where to go. I honestly thought she would threaten him, saying if he kept doing what he doing, then the minute she turned 18 she was leaving and he was never seeing her again. I honestly think she should have LOL

Anyway, the story has a few twists and turns and my heart breaks for Reed during this book. His whole future is jeopardized.

It's a great conclusion to Reed and Ella's book and I really hope we get to read more of the other brothers. I'd really like to read Easten's book next. I love his character.

Broken Prince (The Royals #2) By Erin Watt



These Royals will ruin you...

From wharf fights and school brawls to crumbling lives inside glittery mansions, one guy tries to save himself.

Reed Royal has it all--looks, status, money. The girls at his elite prep school line up to date him, the guys want to be him, but Reed never gave a damn about anyone but his family until Ella Harper walked into his life.

What started off as burning resentment and the need to make his father's new ward suffer turned into something else entirely--keep Ella close. Keep Ella safe. But when one foolish mistake drives her out of Reed's arms and brings chaos to the Royal household, Reed's entire world begins to fall apart around him.

Ella doesn't want him anymore. She says they'll only destroy each other.

She might be right.

Secrets. Betrayal. Enemies. It's like nothing Reed has ever dealt with before, and if he's going to win back his princess, he'll need to prove himself Royally worthy.  


HOLY CRAP!!!

I loved the first one so much and have raved about paper princess to everyone and anyone. But this... MY God, this book was brilliant. 

Reed, finding Ella gone, does everything in his power to find her. What we thought we knew happened in that room was far from what DID happen. I couldn't believe it. 

They're all crumbling and it's evolving around a certain person, one willing to sell her soul to the devil to get married into the family. 
I have my assumptions and theory's on what is going on but it's still a big mystery. I never know what's going to happen next. 

Reed has a lot of groveling to do with Ella and she doesn't make it easy for him. She isn't one of those girls who forgives easily but once she finds out the real story of what happened, what's been going, she's determined to get the royals out of the mess their in and get the poison out of their lives. 

Only, it ends with a massive cliffhanger that will have your jaw dropping. 

Drama, love, angst, death, pregnancy, marriage, arrests and back from the death. Hell, it all happens.

Erin Watt, series reading order.


The Royals

Paper Princess (The Royals Book one) By Erin Watt



From strip clubs and truck stops to southern coast mansions and prep schools, one girl tries to stay true to herself. 

These Royals will ruin you… 

Ella Harper is a survivor—a pragmatic optimist. She’s spent her whole life moving from town to town with her flighty mother, struggling to make ends meet and believing that someday she’ll climb out of the gutter. After her mother’s death, Ella is truly alone.  

Until Callum Royal appears, plucking Ella out of poverty and tossing her into his posh mansion among his five sons who all hate her. Each Royal boy is more magnetic than the last, but none as captivating as Reed Royal, the boy who is determined to send her back to the slums she came from. 

Reed doesn’t want her. He says she doesn’t belong with the Royals. 

He might be right. 
Wealth. Excess. Deception. It’s like nothing Ella has ever experienced, and if she’s going to survive her time in the Royal palace, she’ll need to learn to issue her own Royal decrees.  



Holy effin' crap!!!!!!!
I want to start off by introducing the new author, Erin Watt. I've never heard of this author and from what I can tell, this her debute novel. She smashed it. It's kind of a mix between Eagle Elite series and Fallen Crest, both of which, I love. 

As a reader I tend to look for certain qualities in a book. I reach out for stories I know I'll enjoy but will still put a spin on a book. Sometimes I can go from MC novels, to M/M romances, young adult, new adult, but what has always has me driven is the new age (As I call it) It's where kids are adults, mature enough to know right from wrong and take CALCULATED risks. Lately, I've been on a new age binge. None have got me worked up like the Fallen Crest Series until Paper Princess. 
I was literally glued from the very start and needed to know what was going to happen next. I kept telling myself one more chapter, just one more... I stayed up until half four reading, then finally called it an end at 60% and it killed me. 

The Royals aren't your normal stick up their ass rich snobs. They have a darkness and sadness hidden in each and every one of them. The main Royal brothers we see are Reed and Eastan. The others float in and out of the book as they please. All have hidden secrets and are to one or more things throughout the book. 

Ella comes from a single parent who worked as a stripper to get by. When she fell ill Ella had to become the adult. She started working dead end jobs, even taking a roll as a stripper using her mothers ID. She doesn't stop doing this when her mom dies and I felt so deeply for the character. 
When she moves in with the Royals they are quick too judge and make her time hard. At first. Even at school people take a disliking to her and try to make her time at their prep school hard, but luckily she makes one good friend. Val. Her quirky attitude is addictive and it's obvious why Ella falls into a easy friendship with her. 

The story is just the beginning of the Royals and the cliffhanger at the end had me screaming out. I rushed onto Amazon and went to buy the second book, only to find it's not out yet. *Sigh* On a happy note, it's out this July. 

I don't want to give away anything, so I'm going to leave the story line alone for now. 

I'm so glad I stumbled across this book. I'm so gutted it's taken me until now to find it. I've never, not once, heard anyone mention this book and it pains me. This book should be screamed and raved about. Even the bloody frustrating ending that will having you begging for more. I don't think I'll be able to read anything now until it's released. LOL. 
I'm looking forward to reading more from this author and more from the Royals and I'm wondering if we can persuade Erin to bring her release date forward lol 

5* stars.
