Show Notes

Narrator Ramón de Ocampo brings out all the emotion in this tender, serious, funny, and warmly hopeful love story. Smart, snarky Alex Claremont-Diaz, first son of the United States, is about to graduate from Georgetown and is eager to work on his mother’s reelection campaign. Then he falls headlong into a whirlwind and very secret romance with England’s Prince Henry. De Ocampo beautifully conveys the depth of feeling in their late-night text and email exchanges and intimate physical encounters. Alex gets a hint of a Texas twang and Henry a wobbly but endearing British accent as de Ocampo differentiates among the large cast of supporting characters in orbit around them. Listeners will be swept up as Alex and Henry face questions of identity and coming out amid familial duties and political machinations. Published by Macmillan Audio.
