This new Christmas romantic comedy from Emmy Award-winner Karen Schaler, writer of Netflix hit A Christmas Prince, is a hilarious and heartwarming holiday rom-com sparkling with Christmas romance, a royal twist, and a mischievous pup who changes everything.
“Schaler highlights the magic of the holidays in this fluffy contemporary royal romance. A festive story that would feel right at home among Netflix or Hallmark’s holiday offerings, and the addition of a chaotic canine enhances the fun.” — Publishers Weekly
Princess Ava’s perfectly planned Christmas Eve charity event erupts into chaos when she loses Stormy, the Queen’s mischievous new border collie. With Christmas fast approaching, Ava must team up with Justin, a laid-back American dog trainer who’s used to wrangling strays, not royal runaways.
Sparks fly as Justin’s rule-breaking free spirit clashes with Ava’s determination to follow royal protocol. But when their search for Stormy takes them through glittering Christmas markets, festive holiday activities, and snowy winter wonderlands, an undeniable chemistry builds between them.
The more time they spend together, the harder it is to fight their growing attraction. But Ava’s already promised to a duke. Will she stay on the safe, traditional path…or risk it all and follow her heart?
This feel-good royal holiday romance is a Christmas romantic comedy packed with humor, heart, and holiday spirit, and a royal secret that flips the script. Because the best love stories can’t be planned, and they never follow the rules.
Perfect for fans of Karen’s Netflix sensation A Christmas Prince, her novel A Royal Christmas Fairy Tale, her novella Royal Extra After, and Casey McQuiston’s, Katharine McGee’s, Teri Wilson’s, and Jasmine Guillory’s royal romantic comedies.
Bonus Content: Includes exclusive Christmas recipes and holiday activities from A Ruff Royal Christmas.
