About this eBook

For fans of HBO’s The Gilded Age, explore the dazzling world of America’s 19th century elite in this lush series of sparkling, page-turning love stories…

Kaitlin O’Riley continues her charming series set in Victorian London, where the Hamilton sisters’ bookshops are the perfect setting for romance to unfold . . .

 
The latest American sensation to grace London’s ballrooms, Meredith Rose Remington has beauty,
wit—and a shocking secret. At her aunt’s insistence, Meredith is posing as an oil heiress, but she is utterly destitute. In truth, Meredith would rather spend her time writing than trying to snag a wealthy husband.Yet the stranger who flirts so outrageously with her in Hamilton’s Book Shoppe surpasses even the heroes of her vivid imagination . . .
 
Phillip Sinclair, the Earl of Waverly, has seen ambitious heiresses come and go. Only the enchanting Meredith could make him curb his reckless ways and settle down. But jealous rivals and meddling gossips are far from the only obstacles that must be overcome if love is to secure a happy ending . . .
 
Praise for The Heiress He’s Been Waiting For
 
“This charming romance is a strong start, and readers will eagerly anticipate the next installment!”
Publishers Weekly (starred review)


“The same mix of engaging characters and an emotionally compelling love story found in O’Riley’s Hamilton Sisters books provides a solid foundation for the launch of her series.”

Ok so we have another supposed heiress which seems to be the theme in this book as in the previous book. We meet Meredith whom has lost her father and uncle. Meredith has grown up in wealth but now has to go live with her aunt and and they both come to find out that they are not rich as they were in fact they were broke. Her aunt would like Meredith to find someone that could take care of them and feels that if the truth of their dire situation come out it would be more detrimental. And that starts my issues i get it to a point when dealing with the ton you have to get a little creative. Meredith is not interested in lying or in getting a husband she writes novel and would prefer to do that. We end up meet Phillip who is bored with his life as he should be it is nothing he does is really all that important, he drinks in excess, gambles in excess and is a rake. He meets Meredith and falls in love fairly quickly, but a situation arises that Phillip over reacts, will he forgive or wake the heck up..? rcvd an ARC at no cost to author..(netgalley) voluntarily reviewed with my own thoughts and opinions

3.5 Stars!! This is the 3rd book in the ‘Hamilton Cousins’ series but it’s the first book I’ve read in the series! Can be read as a standalone and has a HEA ending. It’s a good book! I really did like it! I like the main characters, Meredith/Merry and Philip, most of the time! In a few instances I was annoyed with them. (This book shows how important it is to COMMUNICATE in a relationship!) He was just too immature and whiney most of the time! And who breaks up over something soooo stupid?! If you REALLY love someone, you need to LISTEN to why they did what they did and if you’re still mad, THAN you can break up! Merry forgave him WAAAAY too easily too! Make him WORK FOR IT!! This was a typical historical romance with the usual happenings and break ups and make ups! There was one or two little surprises that I didn’t see coming! Also, I LOVED Simon, Philips little brother! I’d love for Simon and Philips ex-mistress, Lady Katherine Vickers, to have their own HEA stories too! All in all, it’s a good book. *I received this book at no charge from the publisher and I voluntarily left a review.*
