The Duchess Effect

A Novel

By: Tracey Livesay

Narrated by: Wesleigh Siobhan, Antony Ferguson

Tracey Livesay returns in this seriously sexy sequel to American Royalty, following Duchess and Prince Jameson as they strive to turn their romance into a relationship, beneath the relentless glare of the spotlight.

Against all odds, sexy American rapper, Danielle “Duchess” Nelson and brilliant reclusive royal Prince Jameson have fallen in love! They’ve decided to take their relationship public and find a way to make their two worlds coexist. On their terms.

Unfortunately, falling in love was the easy part.

Jameson and Dani’s love story has made them the most popular royals since Prince John, but that popularity comes with a price. Dani looks forward to signing the deal with a major cosmetics company that will make her skin care line, Mela-Skin, a force in the industry, and finally grant her the control over her life she’s craved since childhood. But the company wants to take advantage of their fame and involve Jameson in Mela-Skin’s marketing campaign. Dani is outraged! Her company has nothing to do with Jameson.

After stepping up for the royal family, Jameson yearns to retreat back into academia. But he’s fired when his university raises concerns about his newfound notoriety. And suddenly the queen, initially against the relationship, backtracks, seeing their cooperation when the family is embroiled in yet another scandal. This isn’t the quiet life Jameson was hoping for.

Dani and Jameson truly love each other. But under the scrutiny of the international spotlight, when the doubts, compromises, and secrets begin to take their toll, will their love be enough?

phenomenal story

Near perfection, I just wish the make narrator were different. I never really adjusted to him.

The switch out

duchess was a really great character in the first book but I think in this book she was being a little selfish and she didn't have to be. I wish they would have gave more of a backstory what happened with her career and Cash but besides that the book was really good

Great read

The story was so well written. I enjoyed the witty banter between the characters. Wesleigh S. was amazing as always as a narrator; however the male narrator sounded like AI. He was not the best choice for the book.

My kind of romance

I laughed out loud. I cried (yes I admit. was in my
feelings). I admit I wanted & needed more, lol. I enjoyed both books.

Enjoyed

Started out a little slow for me but I really enjoyed and would love a part 3. The narration was awesome

Narration

Great story, had a slow Starr, the male voice took some getting used too it sounded very AI'ish

WOW

I thought American Royalty was the one, but The Duchess Effect takes it to the next level. Can’t wait for the next book.

A perfect conclusion

This was definitely a romance that required two books to tell! I loved the first book, American Royalty, and it was great to see their relationship progress. These books are HOT and so much fun to read!

love, understanding, support, and forgiveness ❤️

The narration was great. I enjoyed the truths that this storyline is laced with and intimate moments were just right.

Loved it and totally urge you to read

The book is amazing and the story is very hot and relatable. Just go read it.
