The man Isabelle Fairlyn believes is her true love has
suddenly been betrothed to her twin sister, Victoria. Now
Isabelle is determined to find the perfect man to replace
him, and she has high expectations for her new prince
charming. He must be a good dancer, wear fashionable colors,
and have a brilliant smile. Fallon St. James has known of
these requirements, yet after a chance meeting, Isabelle
can't help but find herself intrigued with the man. When
Isabelle gets involved with the wrong man it will be up to
Fallon to save her and prove he is more than what he seems.
THE WICKED HEIR is the third book in Elizabeth Michels'
Spare
Heirs series. The story is witty, exciting and
sensual, and fans of the series will not be disappointed.
Isabelle is a fun heroine, as she is bubbly, upfront,
efficient, and smart. Readers will understand why Fallon
falls so easily for her. She is a bit naive, and believes
the best of everyone, but her positive outlook on life is
the perfect foil for the hero's cynical look on life.
Fallon
is dashing, serious, and always looking after everyone but
himself. He is a great hero, and readers will be hoping that
Isabelle finally realizes how great he is for her. The
secondary characters are wonderfully written, and readers
will recognize familiar names, such as Isabelle's sister
Victoria, Mr. Brice, and Evangeline and Claughbane. Mr.
Brice stood out as an especially boisterous character I
found most enjoyable. Some foreshadowing leads one to
believe his story is up next, and readers won't be able to
wait.
Michels creates characters hidden under deception, and
filled with secrets, and writes an exciting mystery within a
romance. THE WICKED HEIR's setting of ballrooms, and
Fallon's own home are detailed quite well, and readers will
be able to picture themselves the a captive along with
Isabelle. The dialogue is droll and entertaining, and
Isabelle and Fallon's first meeting is quite funny. THE
WICKED HEIR is a delightful and daring romance with a great
mystery readers will enjoy from beginning to end.
