Bookroo's summary

When a photo scandal erupts, America's First Son, Alex, and Prince Henry must fake a friendship to mend U.S./British relations. But as their staged camaraderie deepens into a secret romance, they risk derailing a presidential campaign and shaking two nations. Can love survive the political storm, or will it crumble under the weight of duty and expectation?

From the publisher

The special Collector’s Edition of Casey McQuiston’s beloved New York Times bestselling novel, featuring illustrated endpapers, an all new Henry-POV chapter, and more! What happens when America’s First Son falls in love with the Prince of Wales? When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius–his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There’s only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse. Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals. What at first begins as a fake, Instragramable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon Alex finds himself hurtling into a secret romance with a surprisingly unstuffy Henry that could derail the campaign and upend two nations. Casey McQuiston’s Red, White & Royal Blue proves: true love isn’t always diplomatic.
