If you’re looking for something unique and humorous, then look no further! Suzanne Enoch has got your covered!
Enoch is no stranger to humor in his Historical Romance, but I have to say, I have never encountered a story like this one. It follows a couple of eight years who actually live apart. But when Emmeline’s grandfather invites them for his birthday and asks that he bring their children, they have no choice but to attend.
The problem is, that they don’t actually have children. So here comes the issue of how they are going to fool everyone. The romance is different because there are no explicit sex scenes like you expect. The humor is also different than Enoch’s typical style. In this book, it’s more of a slapstick comedy. I know this isn’t for everyone, but I do admire someone willing to try something very different.
There is a lot of repetition, which can slow the pacing down a bit and I wasn’t a huge fan of the conflicts of this story, so that also affected how much I enjoyed this book. Sometimes, I felt like the situations could’ve been solved easily if they had just stopped to explain things, but then again, that might be boring for some to read.
In the end, I admire the utter uniqueness of this story. SOMETHING IN THE HEIR is definitely one-of-a-kind!
