The Heiress

By: Cynthia Dane, Hildred Billings

Narrated by: Aileen Bishop

One heiress, one Hollywood hellraiser… and zero chill

DAISY

I don’t take kindly to jerks. So when Lorde Sheen – yes, that Lorde Sheen – crashed into my carefully curated life, I knew she was trouble. She’s the daughter of a Hollywood icon, all bad attitude and devastating charm, and she challenged me from the second we met.

I tried to shut her down. She made me feel alive. I told myself it was just a game. But the moment she saw through me, it stopped being pretend…

LORDE

Daisy DeMonte is everything I’m not – poised, polished, and planned to perfection. She wasn’t supposed to fall for my stupid flirtations that only existed to rile her up for my amusement.

But she did. And I wanted her right back.

Now, everything is on the line. Her family, my feelings, and our future. I came into Daisy’s world to shake things up. I didn’t expect to rebuild them with her!

Full of heart and lacking all shame, THE HEIRESS is the spicy sapphic retelling of the Cynthia Dane classic The Heiress and Her Bad Boy. It includes a brand-new, extended ending and a couple of tropes spun on their heads!

Spicy sapphic story of love and family

I love the description of this audiobook as, “full of heart and lacking all shame.” It is definitely that. I really enjoyed this book and our two main characters, Daisy and Lorde. This book tells the tale as old as time, about the patriarchy wanting to marry off a daughter like chattel for economic and powerful gain. This book stands it on its head with two independent women doing what they want and not what’s best for the “family.” But the book also respects family tradition and wants to put a modern take on it. And the sex is smokin’! Aileen Bishop does a terrific job narrating this book. I’d love to hear more of her work. I will continue to read/listen to books by Cynthia Dane and Hildred Billings.

Not their best work

I was extremely disappointed in this book. These authors usually do much better at storytelling. If you’re only in it for the spice, you’ll be fine, but if you’re looking for any depth of character or plot, you will be disappointed.
