With the release of To Win a Prince by Toni Shiloh approaching, I decided to re-read book one, In Search of a Prince. Let's just say my re-read was immaculate!
Updated Review: August 22nd, 2022.
This is still a phenomenal read for me. I re-read this while listening to the audiobook. The audiobook was just as fantastic. I love the lush world. I love the friendships & family dynamics. The romance was absolute perfection. There are a few kissing scenes, talk of sex and an almost fade to black scene after marriage, but this was a well written contemporary romance. The faith aspects are so amazing. It hits on: prayer life, power of prayer, faith, trusting God, betrayal, grief and abandonment.
This is a well rounded novel that I believe EVERYONE should read. Solid 10 stars and beyond from me. I re-read it to prepare for the release of its follow-up companion sequel To Win a Prince.
Highly recommend!!

Original Review: Febuary 19th, 2022.
No words can express the gratitude I have for this book! Such a profound main stream clean Christian contemporary romance with such strong black characters. I was in awe of the story and the beauty of the black power shared.
Brielle was a firecracker! She was perfect as heir. She learned, she observed. She never overstepped a line. She was full of love for her people. She was willing to learn and be taught. She always sought after God's best and went to Him in prayer over everything. She was a pure gem!
The King seemed like a douche at first, but I enjoyed him as he bonded with his grand-daughter. Mori was the perfect guy. I loved him from the very first time he appeared on page. His heart and mind were amazing. He reminded me of King David as a boy. Iris was such an awesome best friend. Hard worker, loved Brielle, such a smart woman and she was a prayer warrior for her friend.
Oloro Ilé was such a lush, rich place. I felt like I was there. Everything about this kingdom made me so happy.
The faith aspects gutted me! The prayers are all highlighted in this book. I adored the strong faith of the characters within this story. The romance was sweet, steamy without crossing the line and well written. The friendship that brewed was perfectly done!
Overall, this was perfection and I'm so glad I read this for Black History Month. Toni Shiloh is a new favorite author of mine. This is a solid favorite of mine. I highly recommend this story. Such a beautiful Christian contemporary romance.
I am still speechless!
