I bet you can’t imagine AT ALL why I chose this topic for today’s RimSP Recommends post 😀 It seems like everyone is buzzing about the royal wedding, so I thought I’d share some of my fave royal reads with you!
First and foremost are two of my fave royal series:
Royal Wedding series by Rachel Hauck
Appropriate for today’s festivities, this series is perfect for those who love the American commoner-meets-European-prince scenario!
My Review of A Royal Christmas Wedding
Hagenheim/Fairy Tales series by Melanie Dickerson
Prefer fairy tales over CNN coverage? Then you need to check out these medieval retellings from Sleeping Beauty to Aladdin, and all the beloved fairy tales in between!
My Reviews
The Princess Spy
The Golden Braid
The Silent Songbird
Want some more medieval royal reads?
My Reviews
An Uncertain Choice
A Daring Sacrifice
For Love & Honor
A Loyal Heart
Age of Faith series by Tamara Leigh
Maybe Biblical royals are more your thing?
Or maybe you fancy some nonfiction royalty-themed reads?
I highly recommend the audiobook version of this title!
And if you’re still craving another contemporary romance series…
Check out these books by Carol Moncado!
What about you? Did you watch the wedding today? What was your fave part? (OR… if you skipped the whole thing like I did… what are some of your fave royal reads?)
I skipped the coverage. I like Rachel Hauck and Jody Hedlund. I’ll have to check out some of the others!
Yes, do! They are all great!
Ooooooah perfect post
Yay! Thanks 😀
Princess perfect post! ?❤️
Haha! Thank you, my friend 🙂
Skipped it all like you Carrie. Love Tamara Leigh’s Age of Faith series! So. Good. Need to read Rachel Hauck’s series.
Yes! You do!!
I saw the recaps. I like Rachel Hauck’s Royal series.
It’s a great series!
I woke up at 5 AM and watched the whole thing!!????
Did you make lists? 😉
Thank you for including the Age of Faith series! You bless me!
My pleasure!
I’ve started re-reading The Princess by Lori Wick. Also, I enjoyed the two Love Inspired Suspense series, Reclaiming the Crown and Protecting the Crown, by Rachelle McCalla.
I got up at 4:10 AM to start watching the guests arrival at the wedding. Finished at nine something.
I’ve been wanting to read Rachelle McCalla’s series!
I woke up at 6:00 am to watch the Royal wedding. I wouldn’t miss it! It is history in the making. I have read Tamera Leigh and Rachel Hauck’s series. I would like to read some of the other books. There is just not enough time in the day!
I totally relate!
Thank You for this terrific list. I watched the wedding. One of my TV channels had it repeated at 11 AM. Was not disappointed.

The wedding was beautiful! Thank you for this Royal post! Jody Hedlund, Rachel Hauck and Melanie Dickerson are on my series MUST read list! 😉
I loved Esther!
I watched some of it, though we weren’t really intending to. I think we were more keen on William and Katherine’s wedding.
I’ve read all of Melanie Dickerson’s ones (except The Orphan’s Wish), though I consider Jody Hedlund’s to be more Fantasy then ‘Historical’. Were it not for the fact that I just don’t go in for contemporary, I would read Rachael Hauck’s.
One royal read I enjoyed (though its been several years since I read it) was ‘I Serve: A Novel of the Black Prince’ by Rosanne E Lortz. I think it counts because there is a marriage at the end. It also reminds me of one of the few things the movie ‘A Knight’s Tale’ actually got right, which was how the son of King Edward III of England used to go around incognito hoping not to be recognized at jousts and the like.
I love so many of these. So enchanting. Thanks 4 sharing.
Yay!! You’re welcome!
