Heiress

Irene Brand is a dependable writer in the Love Inspired tradition and this clean inspirational romance delivers what fans of the line expect: faith woven naturally into a fast-moving plot with a tidy emotional payoff. The constraints of the category format keep the characters and the family-secret premise from ever getting very deep, and there is nothing here that distinguishes it from the hundreds of other titles in the imprint. Comfortable genre reading for those already committed to the Love Inspired line, but not a discovery.
