I'm always in the market for a show that's fun, flirty, and romantic — especially when summer rolls around! Well in addition to the best Netflix shows this month (including Sirens and The Four Seasons), the streamer gave us new rom-com show The Royals, and I can't stop thinking about it. Not only is the premise compelling and the tropes are right up BookTok's alley, but the visuals and locations are drop dead gorgeous.
Here's everything you need to know about The Royals, streaming on Netflix now.
Where can I watch The Royals?
Netflix

What is The Royals on Netflix about?
Netflix
The Royals is the ultimate opposites attract story. The show sees CEO Sophia Kanmani Shekhar cross paths with Aviraaj Singh when his royal manor is in desperate need of a renovation and she needs to grow her business. Now, it's up to this duo to get the job done — if they can come to terms with their class division, life experiences, and major chemistry.
With the unexpected nature of their romance and their completely different backgrounds, it's honestly reminding me of Nobody Wants This! With the opulence and beauty of Bridgerton, of course.
