Rebecca Armitage: The Heir Apparent
ABOUT THE SHOW
Rebecca Armitage’s utterly unputdownable tale of royalty and romance is one of the biggest publishing sensations of the year and a Reese’s Book Club Pick. In The Heir Apparent, a young English doctor discovers that she’s a member of the British monarchy – and a tragic accident means she’s suddenly first in line for the throne. As she navigates the mind games and power plays of the Palace, she must choose between following her heart or fulfilling her duty.
