The Heiress's Daughter

 The Heiress's Daughter

The Brides of Bellaire Gardens #3

Anne Gracie



Reviewed by Helen


I am always so thrilled when there is another Anne Gracie book coming out and this one was an absolute joy to read, she has swept me back into Regency England with the pomp, glamour and love that is all about the hero and heroine and, this one had me turning the pages and I loved Clarissa’s story so much and Race is her perfect hero.

Clarissa Studley wants nothing more than what most young eligible girls want and that is to find love and happiness but being an heiress she must be very careful of fortune hunters and after her childhood Clarissa has a list the her hero must meet and one of the biggest on that list is not be a rake like her father, and there must be love.

Race, Lord Randall met Clarissa at a ball and since then he has wanted her but Clarissa is keeping him away as much as possible you see in her eyes he is a rake and there is no way she will marry a rake, even if her heart is telling her differently, and he feels so strongly that there is something between them, she is supposedly nothing like the beautiful woman he is known to flirt with or so she is convinced and a big flirt he is, will he ever be able to convince her differently, will he ever be able to convince her of how beautiful she is?

Clarissa has attracted a lot of interest this season and Race is doing his best to ensure he will be the one to win her heart but there is another who is getting close to her, a wounded war hero who is not a fortune hunter will Race ensure that it is himself she chooses, when Race comes to the rescue to save a scandal, will this prove his love for Clarissa?

I loved this one from start to finish such awesome characters, I loved being back in Bellaire Gardens with Izzy and Leo, The Tarrant’s and the girls Lady Scattergood and with a new character arriving on the scene this surely means that there will be more in this series, because, yes I want to go back there.

This one is witty, sensual and a gorgeous story, it had me smiling throughout and is one that I highly recommend, don’t miss this one, it is a must read for any lovers of historical romance. A keeper.

My thanks to the author for my digital copy to read and review.
