Lynsay Sands
“You can’t help but fall in love with Lynsay Sands!”—Christina Dodd Whether she’s enthralling readers with the exploits of her Argeneau vampire family, transporting fans to the Scottish Highlands, or enchanting them with love affairs of the noble lords and ladies of the Regency ton, New York Times and USA Today bestseller Lynsay Sands knows how to pen a winner! The Heiress—the second book in the very sexy, very funny Regency romance series she began with The Countess—is further proof of Sands’s historical romance mastery. The winning tale of an alluring beauty desperately seeking a poor husband, The Heiress is exactly the kind of sharp and witty read that fans of Julie Garwood and Teresa Medeiros—not to mention Lynsay’s own army of aficionados—are looking for.

"Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for early access to this book!<br/><br/> Wow! This book was fantastic. I honestly wasn’t expecting to be quite so “pulled in” but I was. I would also say that this book was definitely a “slow burn but the last 3rd of the book was action packed I didn’t want it to end. I’ve only ever read The Villa by Rachel Hawkins but now I think I need to read more by her! Also if you’re worried about this book being “scary” because it’s a thriller, it really isn’t. I’m fairly new to the thriller genre because I’m quite a scaredy cat, but this book really wasn’t gory or scary at all. <br/><br/>I am also surprised that the book is being released in January be sure to me this was a perfect summer read. <br/><br/>I will be definitely picking up this book when it’s released in January! Thank you again to NetGalley and the publisher!"

"I received an ARE of this book in a Goodreads giveaway.<br/><br/>I loved this. Everything from the different view points, the background, the characters, even the house itself all lend such a mysterious air that even when you figure something out it still has you second guessing. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves mystery."

"The Heiress is a different structure of novel from what one is used to reading from Rachel Hawkins. The chapters are told from the perspectives of Camden and Jules McTavish and at times they are speaking to the reader and at times they are simply living through the story. Between these chapters, the reader experiences letters, newspaper articles, and other forms of correspondence that provide insight into the heiress herself, Ruby McTavish.<br/><br/>There are a number of mysteries woven into this book starting from the disappearance & reappearance of Baby Ruby, continuing with the abhorrence that Cam has for his home, and continuing with the reader wondering who Ruby was writing those letters to. <br/><br/>I was a bit turned off by the structure and pace of the novel at first and struggled to get hooked. However, once Ruby's backstory started to get a bit more interesting, things seemed to tie together a bit more. I would recommend this book if you're looking for a light mystery!<br/><br/>Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced digital copy."
