Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A behind-the-scenes look into the life of Meghan Markle and her romance with Prince Harry?a dishy, delightful must-read filled with exclusive insights for anyone obsessed with the Royal Family.Leslie Carroll?s books on royalty are ?an irresistible combination of People Magazine and the History Channel.??Chicago TribuneWhen Prince Harry of Wales took his American girlfriend, Meghan Markle, to have tea with his grandmother the queen, avid royal watchers had a hunch that a royal wedding was not far off.
