Yet Josh refuses to lose the woman who has consumed him so completely, distorted his boundaries, and stripped him of all sensibility. Will the power of the British Monarchy triumph? Or will Adeline and Josh’s fierce love for each other change the course of history?

This book….just wow!
Unpredictable and yet, the perfect ending for a tumultuous rule. His True Queen is anything but ordinary. After the crazy, heart stopping mic drop that was The Controversial Princess, Jodi Ellen Malpas pulls no punches. Whether you are blindsided by a right hook or have taken your eyes off the opponent, you are going to go down. The seamless manipulation will have you lost in the mire. Believe me, there is plenty of mire. Everyone is crawling through dirt in this one.
Smoke and Mirrors aren’t a figure of speech- they are an existence. They are a method of survival. A form of control.
What is a Queen without control…
Everything you thought you knew about the monarchy…
Everything you thought you knew about a certain American Boy…
Nothing makes a person feel more out of control than lies. And His True Queen has no idea the amount of lies involved. God Save The Queen!
What the heck just happened??? The drama, the thrills, the passion, and the fire. That is my quick take on His True Queen. Adeline’s and Josh’s journey will leave you a bit emotionally beaten down. But wow what a ride you will get finishing the Smoke and Mirrors duet. The title of the series fits perfect. My heart broke for these characters, got angry, and then fell for them. My head is still spinning! You think you know where all the lies and scandals that lie beneath the royal family, but boy was I so wrong.
Did I think coming into this book that Adeline and Josh were over? Honestly I did. I really couldn’t see Adeline come out of her guilt to not follow her role. Let’s just say I was in for a surprise. Is the heat factor as hot as the previous book? Would you believe me when I say it seems to have gotten hotter?? His True Queen was exceptionally written and these characters will dig their way into you heart! JEM always gives us readers more than we could ever anticipate!
5 “Do you want to get into trouble with me?” Stars!!! A top summer read! Twist and turns with scorching hot chemistry! Definitely a page turner. Hooked until the very end. I highly recommend this duet! Josh is EVERYTHING!!!
**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title compliments of NetGalley and the publisher.**
His True Queen was one of those books that I was eagerly awaiting and it did not disappoint! When I finished The Controversial Princess, all I wanted was to see how this story was going to end. Jody Ellen Malpas did an amazing job with this duet and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time as this gripping story unfolded.
I was drawn in by the complexity of the story, the twists and turns, the deception and the strong attraction between Adeline and Josh. The struggle that Adeline had with her newly acquired role, the her duty to her family and country, and trying to balance those things with her blossoming romance with movie star, Josh was nothing short of captivating.
I went through every emotion as I read this book; from anger, to hope, to joy, to sorrow with some angst thrown in as well. Josh and Adeline face every obstacle possible and they continued to fight for one another as they both knew that they were one another’s destiny; their one true love. I was blown away by the twists and turns this book took and all that was revealed by the end. Many things I did not see coming which made the enjoyment of this book so much more profound. Smoke and Mirrors was a perfect name for this duet and I would highly recommend picking it up. You will not be sorry!!
