Expanding in the Jasmine Guillory Wedding Date universe, we are focusing on Maddie's mom this time around: Vivian Forest. Maddie gets an opportunity to work fo the Duchess in England over Christmas break and invites her mother along. Vivian joins and meets a stunning member of the queen's staff: Malcom Hudson. The two hit it off and navigate the ups and downs of a vacation (and potentially long distance) relationship.

For me, this was lacking the usual subplots that I love in Jasmine Guillory's books. HOWEVER, I did almost tear up during some of the Vivian/Malcom interactions, and loved reading from an older perspective of a MC in this universe.

I would definitely recommend. I feel like you could read this one at any time, but reading this series in order does help. Others in the series don't have as much flexibility as Royal Holiday does to me.
