Ebook Review: Lady Veronica's Lost Gem (The Riddle Sisters #6) by Jennifer Monroe

 

Blurb: 

A deadly mission. A stolen legacy. A love neither of them saw coming.

Lady Veronica Standwick has spent years proving she is more than another woman waiting for rescue. As a spy for the Underground, she has learned to trust no one and guard her heart with the same precision she guards the Crown's secrets. But when she locates the lost heir to the Saltersford dukedom, those iron barriers begin to crack.

James Dunning is a quiet schoolteacher who believes shaping young minds is the greatest adventure he will ever have. When a sharp-tongued beauty arrives at his door claiming he is the lost heir to a dukedom, he thinks she has lost her mind. But the proof she carries is undeniable. And so is the woman holding it.

As James adjusts to his new life as a duke, the mystery of why he was kidnapped as a child brings on a new danger—an assassin wanting to take his life. As Veronica fights to keep him alive, James finds the red-headed beauty impossible to read and harder to look away from. For Veronica, the allure of James awakens a feeling she thought long buried: love. But the secret she hides may destroy them both before his enemies ever get the chance.

Lady Veronica's Lost Gem, Book 6 of the six-book Riddle Sisters series, is a sweet and clean Regency romance with a guaranteed happily ever after. Perfect for fans of Sarah M. Eden and Julie Klassen.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars - 

I enjoyed this story, the last of the Riddle children. With the Riddle sisters having done their part, Veronica went to collect the Lost Gem. James was a surprise. I loved his caring attitude to his students and his acceptance of the change in his circumstances. The connection between Veronica and James was obvious, but they did try hard to keep it from being personal for safety sake. Despite the danger surrounding them, they had lovely sweet moments. I had tears for the last bit of the book as it touched my heart.

I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
