About this listen

Can a humble farmer bag himself a true Jersey royal to save his farm...and steal his heart?

Distant royal, Nicholas Osbourne, has one last chance to prove his worth to his wealthy family. A string of bad press over even worse relationships has him agreeing to star in a reality television series getting down and dirty with the ordinary folk. He can live a lie for a week. He’s been doing it for years.

Jersey potato farmer, Alex Hamon, has no time nor patience to babysit a pretentious television crew, nor a work-shy, bratty rich-kid. But the hefty fee and potential promotional opportunities for his farm are too tempting to turn down. He just needs to keep his head in the soil, and not on how his under-the-radar gaydar is blinking overtime for the rogue royal.

Nicholas is out of his depth. Distracted by the stunningly sexy farmer’s son, he’s unable to bury his attraction the way he has been back in London. But he’s on camera. Twenty-four-seven. It’s a disaster waiting to happen. His only saving grace is that the farmer’s son is straight…isn’t he?

Jersey Royal is an opposites attract, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, rich v. poor, first-time contemporary MM romance, featuring an appearances-is-everything royal with a secret, and a temperamental potato farmer with a track record for burying things.

A royal mess finds love on reality TV!

Nicholas Osbourne’s titled, wealthy mother has put her foot down over his public indiscretions - he must rehabilitate his image by appearing on a reality TV series where the cameras film him mucking in and bonding with decent hard-working folk. The first episode to be filmed has Nicholas on Alex Hamon’s potato farm on the Isle of Jersey. Alex really doesn’t want Nicholas or the film crew interfering with his race to harvest the crop but the farm could do with the money. Both closeted, both buckling under the weight of family expectations, feelings between the two men spark before they begin to thaw.

The common thread in the Flying into Love series is taking a Brit who is failing at life and pushing him further out of his comfort zone in a far-flung place, it’s classic fish-out-of-water stuff and it’s a lot of fun. What’s also nice about this series is that, like Sex and the City, the setting is its own character. I’ve enjoyed experiencing the different settings through the main characters’ eyes: for one it’s familiar, for the other it’s exotic and strange. There were nice enemies-to-lovers and redemption tropes here. Despite his privilege and entitlement, I liked Nicholas and could sympathise with his gilded cage lifestyle (there are parallels with Prince Harry’s Spare). Alex has pretty grumpy but he too felt guilty and trapped on his family’s farm so his anger was understandable. What’s sweet is that the two men help solve a lot of each other’s problems as they find true love.

Piers Ryman is a favourite narrator, he’s utterly comfortable with all of CF White’s characters, and his toffee-nosed voice for Nicholas was perfect!
