Something in the Heir by Suzanne Enoch
4.0
Something in the Heir was an entertaining read with such a fun premise. As someone who loves and reads a fair share of historical romances, this felt like nothing I've read before in a good way. It was a refreshing story that was surprising in the very best of ways.
Emmeline and William Pershing have had a marriage of convenience for 8 years. They've helped each other achieve their individual goals while living under the same roof. But when Emmeline's grand-father invites them to his birthday celebration, Will realizes that depths of the perfect life that Emmeline has spun for her family. In order to keep their estate, Emmeline and William need to find two children to pretend to be their children. They find George and Rose, two orphans whom seem to fit the bill perfectly. Emmeline is convinced that if they can give George and Rose lessons, they'll be able to convince Emmeline's family that George and Rose are their children. Wanting to give Emmeline what she wants, William goes along with the plan. After all, what possibly could go wrong?
The hijinks in this book were so entertaining. It quickly becomes clear that Emmeline and William have gotten more than they bargained for with the children. When I started, I thought the romance story would be more of an important part of the story. It's still there, but it's the main arc of the book. Even with that, I really enjoyed reading it and loved how it ended.
If you're looking for a fun historical with a unique premise, I highly recommend it.
I received an advance copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
