At the same time, she\u2019s reaching the end of her time on the marriage mart and is days away from landing a Duke. Cue the arrival of her old childhood friend, Harrison Archer.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Harrison<\/strong> is on a mission of revenge, but when he finds out the girl he\u2019s loved since he was a boy is about to marry another, Harrison can\u2019t help but risk everything to win her for himself.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This book had all the trappings to sucker me in and make me fall hard. Unfortunately, it was a bit lackluster for me. I found Harrison\u2019s love for Maddie sweet, but he was a bit underhanded in winning her. I couldn\u2019t really respect the way he went about things. Not to mention he and Maddie don\u2019t really talk. They\u2019ve been apart for years, at least five, and Harrison assumes a lot. Maddie is likeable enough, but the chemistry with her and Harrison is a little difficult to accept, once I learned about their past.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the coming together was good I wanted more from the plot as a whole. There were storylines that felt loosely tied together and plenty of hints dropped to future storylines. Also, Maddie\u2019s would-be fianc\u00e9 Duke gets the shaft and I semi-hope he gets some redemption in a future book.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, I liked the story. I inhaled it within one evening, eager to get to the end. Though the end is where I struggled the most. Series starters can be difficult, and I am still looking forward to future books in the series. Especially, Kit\u2019s story.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Landra<\/em><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><br \/><br \/><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_eb0616c customBorderRad repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3vbJhhc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/the-heiress-hunt\/id1517373300?itsct=books_toolbox&amp;itscg=30200&amp;at=11l88k&amp;ct=books_the_heiress_hunt&amp;ls=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">iBooks<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-heiress-hunt-joanna-shupe\/1136764255?ean=9780063044005\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">B&amp;N<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/the-heiress-hunt-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Kobo<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Joanna_Shupe_The_Heiress_Hunt?id=ER_qDwAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n            \t    <\/div>\n\t    <!-- \/row_inner -->\n\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/module_row -->\n\t<\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High society reprobate.An unconventional heiress.Childhood friends.

At the same time, she\u2019s reaching the end of her time on the marriage mart and is days away from landing a Duke. Cue the arrival of her old childhood friend, Harrison Archer.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Harrison<\/strong> is on a mission of revenge, but when he finds out the girl he\u2019s loved since he was a boy is about to marry another, Harrison can\u2019t help but risk everything to win her for himself.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This book had all the trappings to sucker me in and make me fall hard. Unfortunately, it was a bit lackluster for me. I found Harrison\u2019s love for Maddie sweet, but he was a bit underhanded in winning her. I couldn\u2019t really respect the way he went about things. Not to mention he and Maddie don\u2019t really talk. They\u2019ve been apart for years, at least five, and Harrison assumes a lot. Maddie is likeable enough, but the chemistry with her and Harrison is a little difficult to accept, once I learned about their past.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the coming together was good I wanted more from the plot as a whole. There were storylines that felt loosely tied together and plenty of hints dropped to future storylines. Also, Maddie\u2019s would-be fianc\u00e9 Duke gets the shaft and I semi-hope he gets some redemption in a future book.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, I liked the story. I inhaled it within one evening, eager to get to the end. Though the end is where I struggled the most. Series starters can be difficult, and I am still looking forward to future books in the series. Especially, Kit\u2019s story.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Landra<\/em><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3vbJhhc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/the-heiress-hunt\/id1517373300?itsct=books_toolbox&amp;itscg=30200&amp;at=11l88k&amp;ct=books_the_heiress_hunt&amp;ls=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-heiress-hunt-joanna-shupe\/1136764255?ean=9780063044005\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/the-heiress-hunt-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Joanna_Shupe_The_Heiress_Hunt?id=ER_qDwAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27064"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27064\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27064"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
