There's a prequel?? How did I not know this existed? I've been waiting for the 3rd book to come out for what seems like forever yet I didn't even know this baby was in existence.
The American Royals series is a what if scenario where what if instead of George Washington becoming President of the US, he set himself up as king. The Washington family have led the US ever since and these books are about the first female Washington to become Queen. I adore this family and just want to devour anything about them so this prequel was perfect.
Over the course of the two books there is one night that is often eluded to. We get little brief snippets of what happened just so we know enough to know shit went down. In Inheritance, McGee takes us back to that night and dives right into what each character went through. But, omg, would it have killed McGee to include Jeff's POV from that night because that boy - what was he thinking??
Also, nothing will EVER make me like Daphne. This woman is absolutely horrible and so freaking entitled. Being in her head is painful and did nothing to endear me to her. I really just want her to fall far from grace.

"This night had changed them all. Events had transpired that had left a mark on each of them, made them grow up in a sharp and sudden way.
This ties into the first book so well"
