What happens when the Prince of Wales falls in love with the prime minister?
My boring life working in an insurance call center in sunny California just took an unexpected turn. Thanks to my misbehaving relatives, I’ve leaped from obscurity to royalty as the new heir to the British throne.
But my welcome in England is about as warm as the weather. I arrive to discover a country horrified at the thought of an American version of Prince Charming and ready to revolt against the monarchy. I vow to my grandmother, the queen, that I will do everything possible to help her save the crown.
Unfortunately, royal life isn’t easy. From bewildering traditions, traitorous friends, and malevolent swans, the only thing I’m succeeding in is providing entertainment for the tabloids and social media trolls.
And then the broodingly handsome prime minister, Oliver Hartwell, bursts into my life.
With his meteoric rise from poverty to the most powerful man in the country, Oliver understands my current plight. Innocent messages of support turn into late-night chats—and unexpected feelings.
But there’s one major problem. The royal family must remain politically neutral at all times.
So how can I keep my promise to save the monarchy when I’m falling in love with the prime minister?
A forbidden romance filled with humor and drama featuring a bumbling Prince of Wales and a stern yet dashing prime minister, with a love that could transform a nation.

A truly wonderful royal fairytale. 💙👑
Oh, how I adored this book!
The Unlikely Heir is one of those rare stories that completely sweeps you away and leaves you with that wonderful feeling of having lived inside a beautiful fairytale for a little while.
Jax Calder has created something absolutely exquisite in Callum and Oliver’s love story. Callum, suddenly and quite bewilderingly finding himself the Prince of Wales, and Oliver Hartwell, the British Prime Minister, could hardly seem more different — and yet somehow they fit together perfectly.
I fell completely in love with Callum. His awkwardness, his vulnerability, his wonderfully quirky personality, his random facts and his enormous heart made him impossible not to love. He is thrown into a world he could never have imagined for himself, and I loved watching him try to find his place in it while remaining true to the person he has always been.
And Oliver… ❤️
The handsome, serious, controlled, enormously capable Prime Minister slowly allowing Callum into the parts of himself that he keeps hidden was beautiful to watch. I loved the way Callum brought laughter and lightness into Oliver’s life, while Oliver gave Callum the reassurance, steadiness and belief in himself that he so desperately needed.
Their relationship begins so innocently, through messages and late-night conversations, and gradually develops into something so deep and tender. I loved every step of their journey. The longing, the stolen moments, the impossibility of their situation and the sheer tenderness between them had my heart completely captured.
And somehow Jax Calder manages to make this extraordinary premise feel completely believable because, underneath all the royal drama, politics and impossible circumstances, this is simply a beautiful story about two men finding the person who sees them, understands them and loves them for exactly who they are.
There is humour, drama, suspense, tenderness and plenty of moments that made me smile, but for me it was the romance that made this book so special.
It truly felt like a modern-day MM royal fairytale — and I didn’t want it to end.
This narration by Gary Furlong brought Callum and Oliver beautifully to life. His narration is perfection adding another layer to an already wonderful story.
Jax Calder, thank you for giving me Callum and Oliver. Their story was romantic, funny, tender, utterly charming and, quite simply, exquisite.
I absolutely adored The Unlikely Heir.
A completely magical five stars from me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you love MM romance, forbidden love, royalty, opposites attracting, slow-burn romance and a good old-fashioned fairytale ending, I couldn’t recommend this beautiful book highly enough. 💙👑✨
