The Devil and the Heiress

The Devil and the Heiress


The Gilded Age Heiresses, Book #2

by Harper St. George

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 


One daughter wed, another to go… just another day in the world of the Dollar Princesses of the Gilded Age!


After Violet Crenshaw’s sister finally gets married to a Duke, she she believes that she is finally free of her parents machinations and will be able to live her life as she would like…


Well, that hope was dashed pretty quickly when were brother-in-law, the Duke’s friend Christian Halston, Earl of Leigh lets her in on some gossip. Her parents have another aristocratic suitor in line for her and she better watch out! Thankfully she has friends like him to help her out.


Christian has wanted Violet for himself since his friend decided that he preferred her sister… she would make the perfect wife and her dowery will allow him to repair his beloved estate. Too bad her parents have their sights on an aristocrat that can offer more to the family than him… That’s ok, Christian is used to working to get what he wants. Some well placed information and cue the road trip romance!


Violet was such a sweet character and she brought out all the best characteristics that Christian had hidden within. She may be tricked into a wild road trip up North while fleeing an unwanted suiters, but there was no trick to the attraction and romance that bloomed between her and Christian as they traveled.


You know what I say- a long trip will either prove your love and devotion or you will end up killing each other! 


I loved Christian and Violets story! It gave me all the feels! They both learn to love, trust and support their partner. Simply perfect!



The Devil and the Heiress by Harper St. George is scheduled to release June 29th, 2021.



I received a complimentary copy of this book from Berkley Publishing Group through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A Bride's Guide to Marriage and Murder Countess of Harleigh Mystery, Book 5 by Dianne Freeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 They finally got hitched!!

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
