The Hesitant Heiress by Dawn Crandall - Review

Back Cover Blurb:

After being unjustly expelled from the Boston Conservatory of Music, Amaryllis Brigham sees her dreams of founding a music academy in her hometown of Seattle, Washington, disappearing before her very eyes. Now, the only way to achieve her goal comes with high stakes for someone set on avoiding men as much as possible: Marry within the year to inherit the immense fortune of her estranged grandmother. Amaryllis reluctantly moves in to her aunt's Boston home and rubs shoulders with fashionable society. Despite her own misgivings, she soon finds herself quickly falling in love with the most unlikely of men, Nathan Everstone, the envy of every eligible female, whose father has haunted her dreams for the decade following her mother's tragic death. However, Nathan turns out to be much more than he seems...and everything she never knew she wanted. But can she ever really trust an Everstone man?

My Thoughts:

This was a lovely historical novel told from the point of view of a very likable heroine. There were times that her decisions made me mad at her, but her back-story and past issues made them believable. I really enjoyed the twists and turns at the end. Can’t tell any more without giving something away, but it was a fantastic conclusion! :) I’m looking forward to the next book in this series. Good job! (And is that cover fantastic or what?)


My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars!
