A Royal Christmas: A Christmas Novella

Adelaide Smith is too busy for fairy tales.

She’s been working hard to put herself through law school, and she’s determined to stay focused on her goals. Then she receives a letter notifying her that she is a direct descendant of King Maximillian Konig V, the ruler of a small European principality called Montovia.

What? No. That’s the stuff of cheesy made-for-TV movies, not real life.

Still, curiosity gets the best of her, leading to a Christmas break trip chock-full of surprises, including a charming village, an opulent palace, family mysteries, royal jealousies, a handsome young member of Parliament, and the chance at a real-life fairy tale romance.

”Carlson puts a charming, Christmasy spin on a rags-to-royalty Cinderella story. Readers will cheer on Carlson’s spunky, earnest heroine."--Publishers Weekly

“Carlson’s latest impeccably written inspirational romance is wholesome holiday fun for readers who like their romances dressed up with a bit of fairy-tale glitz and glam."--Booklist
