Goodreads Summary:
Someday I want to live in a place where I never hear “You’re Dusty’s sister?” ever again.
Life is real enough for Dylan—especially as the ordinary younger sister of Dusty, former Miss Mississippi and the most perfect, popular girl in Tupelo. But when Dusty wins the hand of the handsome Scottish laird-to-be Ronan on the TRC television network’s crown jewel, Prince in Disguise, Dylan has to face a different kind of reality: reality TV.
As the camera crew whisks them off to Scotland to film the lead-up to the wedding, camera-shy Dylan is front and center as Dusty’s maid of honor. The producers are full of surprises—including old family secrets, long-lost relatives, and a hostile future mother-in-law who thinks Dusty and Dylan’s family isn’t good enough for her only son. At least there’s Jamie, an adorably bookish groomsman who might just be the perfect antidote to all Dylan’s stress . . . if she just can keep TRC from turning her into the next reality show sensation.

Prince In Disguise is one of those books that had me laughing out loud so many times. This isn't something that easy to do for my cynical romance heart, but Dylan and Jamie have the best banter.
Dylan is the younger sister of Dusty the former Miss Mississippi winner and the Prince In Disguise bride to be who is going to be married to a Scottish Lord!
Dylan is the less popular, more athletic sibling and has tried to stay out of the reality show and finds it all to be rather annoying. But now she can't escape it and is forced to be apart of it and her big sister's wedding. The plus side is she gets to visit Scotland and meets a certain someone who helps make it all worth it. Jamie is a groomsman in the wedding and is the same age as Dylan. This makes them the youngest in the group and automatically makes them have to spend a lot of time together. The good part of this is that Jamie knows all the secrets of the Castle and shows Dylan a good time even if the cameras are following them around the whole time.
We slowly start to see a romance form between them and for a change I really loved it, they still had witty banter and it wasn't just all about them. Dylan was still concerned about Dusty after learning certain things and was willing to do anything to protect her big sister.
It wouldn't be a type of reality show though if we didn't have some family drama added in as well, which means that an absent family member suddenly shows up and upsets Dylan. Jamie has his own secrets as well and it might be more than Dylan can handle on top of everything else.
Overall I loved this book. Not only is it full of witty banter, but the side characters were the best as well. Kit and Heaven were the most unlikely pair to work together, but they did and they made something pretty amazing happen. Plus they both had witty comments and comic relief all while still being there for there friends. Nothing was left out in this book and it all worked.
It's going to be the perfect holiday funny read that you won't want to put down!
