An Heiress to Remember

Sven Test

Love was much, much sweeter than revenge.

Beatrice and Dalton are both forces to be reckoned with. This lovely pairing used to be together in hiding in their youth since Beatrice's family was of a high ranking, and Dalton was not. When Dalton suggests for them to escape and start their lives, Beatrice knows she will lose everything so she decides to marry the man her family chose for her. Years later, Beatrice returns to her hometown as a widow to find out that Dalton has built a department story that rivals her family's story and could very well drive their business to the ground.

He didn't want her anymore. He wanted revenge and he wanted it more than anything.

This story was beyond entertaining. I enjoyed Beatrice and Dalton's antics. Both were dead-set on destroying the other, and would try to accomplish it, but sometimes feelings would slowly resurface and would make them question this rivalry. 

I loved the female representation. Despite it being the Gilded Age, Beatrice wasn't letting any man look down on her nor on the females in her town. I loved how they all banded together and fought for their rights. 

One would be wise to never underestimate two women united in their purpose, especially if it involved thwarting a man.

Overall, An Heiress to Remember is certainly a memorable, entertaining, loving story that I thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end.

This was disappointing after how much I enjoyed Some Like It Scandalous. I was looking for a story where a woman finds her independence and love, in a time period where those things are often opposed. There was so much potential with this plot and characters but just fell flat for me.
