Asanti East is a fresh and exciting name in the literary world. With the release of her debut novel, "Royal Choices," earlier this month, she marks her grand entry into the realm of published authors. As a married mother, Asanti's journey into the depths of reading and writing is not just a hobby but a lifelong passion. Her love for weaving words into stories began in high school, initially manifesting through poems and short stories. Over time, this passion flourished, evolving into the crafting of full-length novels. "Royal Choices" is a testament to her dedication and growth as a writer, promising to be the first of many captivating tales.
Asanti East's "Royal Choices" is a vivid exploration of the power of decision-making and personal transformation. The novel plunges readers into the life of Nicole, a woman standing at the crossroads of destiny. Each pivotal moment in the book presents Nicole with a critical choice: dive into an intoxicating romance with Nate, embracing the allure of royal life, or retreat to the safety of her mundane, unremarkable existence. Nicole and Nathaniel, the central figures of this tale, are bound by a deep, consuming love that serves as the story's backbone.
Nicole's character arc is particularly striking, illustrating a remarkable transition from a shy, inconspicuous woman merely surviving in the shadows to a radiant, assertive queen-in-waiting, equipped with the belief in her resilience against any adversity.

I had the pleasure of reading this novel and I thought it was a good storyline & who doesn't love a romantic story. A few flaws as it was short and the characters developed a relationship extremely fast. I would have loved for the story to unfold at a better paste. You can read my review below.
