It was an easy but engaging read. I did feel like i was able to predict alot of the major "twists" and even the ending, but i had a good time reading this one.

I have yet to be disappointed by any book from Rachel Hawkins. With that being said, this is my new favorite. What a great read start to finish!

This is not bad. I am happy I received an ARC of it by Netgalley. Though the novel is not bad, nothing seems to really happen. Everything is predictable. I liked 3 out of the 6 characters. There are a few holes left in the end. Completely under the impression that there is this big reveal coming at up the end of the novel. There isn't.
Hawkins has written a simple storyline this time.
Mild swearing (Maybe) Mild sexual content.

I love how fast-paced this was! It's definitely a popcorn thriller. You know what to expect and are just along for the ride. Rachel Hawkins always delivers good twists and intriguing characters.

I really shouldn’t have liked these characters but I loved them. Unbelievably, I saw the twists coming, but I found this book entertaining and hard to put down.

I could not finish this. I found the writing to be difficult to get through. Pacing was very slow and uneventful. I gave the book 20% before DNF

This is my least favorite of Rachel Hawkins' thrillers thus far which sucks because this premise was my favorite promising a notorious heiress, but it felt unoriginal.

This was one of the oldest ARCs on my Net Galley list and I finally got to it. I don't know why I didn't pick this up sooner! Hawkins story of Ashby House and the matriarch of the family, Ruby was fascinating! There was mystery, intrigue, murder and the house itself was a character. Since I read it so long after I received the ARC, I checked out the audio from my library and I do feel like the audio is a great companion. The full cast audio and voice of Ruby made this even more immersive for my reading. If you enjoy stories with a mystery at their center, houses that feature a prominent role, rich family members behaving very badly, and unreliable narrators - this is a book for you. Be sure to grab the audio too!

Thank you to St. Martins Press and Net Galley for the advanced reader copy.

Reluctant. Disapproving. Generational family drama. Unfortunately, the drama was light, the pacing slow. The Heiress was not for me. 2.75 rating

Rachel Hawkins had me hooked from the very beginning, I didn't want to put it down! It was an easy but engaging read. This book is about the heirs to Ashby house after Ruby goes missing as a baby, the line of succession gets a bit messy. Overall, the characters could be a little frustrating and spoiled but I really enjoyed Ruby's story told through old letters. She was spunky, eccentric and a bit on the devious side... But that really made her story enchanting. I was amazed by what she had endured and ultimately how she shaped the current heirs. If the heirs has been a little more likable I probably would have rated it 5 stars.

Thank you Netgalley for another great read!

Devoured this book. Great story, very engaging. Possibly my favourite Rachel Hawkins to date. Loved the storyline and figuring out the characters and their motives.

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an ARC of The Heiress by Rachel Hawkins. This story pulled me in right from the very beginning. I liked the multiple POVS, each one added an additional layer of suspense. I thought this was a fun, fast read, even though a little predictable. Rachel Hawkins' books are always entertaining and enjoyable. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick read, filled with juicy family secrets.

4 stars!
if you want family drama x mystery x ultimate plot twist --> this one is for you!

This is my second book I have read by Rachel and it will not be my last

I really enjoyed this!! I loved the different new articles and journal entries throughout. The dual pov and jumping timelines made this a super quick read

Unfortunately I was unable to download this book before the archive date, so I'm not able to leave a review. I look forward to reading and reviewing books by this author in the future.

Convoluted with some crazy surprises. Jules and Camden are heading to Camden's family home where secrets abound. But they each have secrets of their own . . .

I liked that the narrative was interspersed with letters from Ruby. The letters were a great way to fill in the background details. Lots of suspense and thrills throughout, although some parts were predictable. Worth the read for the character and plot development.

This book was a pleasant surprise.
I thoroughly enjoyed it, as it was a quick read and a good time.

Smart and addictive. I couldn’t wait to keep reading and will definitely be grabbing more from Rachel Hawkins.

I thought this book was a slow burn, but a fast read. I'm a sucker for a book with different POVs. I listened to the book as I read, having a different narrator for each POV was great. It helped make the characters more themselves. The book had great twists. I don't think it was necessarily a thriller, but it was still a good read. This was my second Rachel Hawkins book, and it won't be my last. Thank you to Macmillian Audio and St. Martin's Press for the copies of this book in exchange for my review.
