At first, I wasn’t sure I liked Sheridan - but it shows the author’s talent to keep him the same, while changing my opinion of him. That is why this author is in my top 5 of all time. I love her characters, I love the history, and the locations and circumstances she writes. I never wanted this book to end, so I’m glad that there will be a third book in the series.
I wouldn’t quite say this stands alone, it will definitely be better if you read The Nature of a Lady first, as that is where the action gets started, and this book picks up right where that one ends.
Clean, with some great kisses, and some marvelous discussions about pearls of great price. Also done spectacularly well. This is Christian fiction, but not sickly sweet, conversion is necessary to gain love type. No preachy overbearing. I am Christian, so I love it. Even if you’re not, I don’t think you’ll mind it too much.

Set on the beautiful Isles of Scilly, the adventure begins with the story of pirate prince Rupert from the 1650’s who unexpectedly falls in love with a beautiful woman from the isles. Forced to leave her after a quick marriage, he provides clues to a treasure that will hopefully sustain her until he comes back. Now it’s 1906 and all the lovable characters from the first book are working together to locate the lost treasure. They aren’t the only ones seeking it though and several ambitious men will go to any lengths to get it.
I absolutely adored the romance between Beth and Sheridan. Sheridan starts out as Beth’s nemesis but he gradually wins her over with his quick wit, his self deprecating humor, his absolute charm, and lack of guile. He even reads Jane Austen! How much more perfect can you get! He definitely won me over instantly. I chuckled at his adorable inner monologues. Beth was a favorite too and the two of them together were both hilarious and enchanting.
The other characters were just as delightful. I loved seeing Elizabeth and Oliver from the first book as well as the insightful and endearing Mamm-wynn. We’re also introduced to some new characters, Senara daughter to the Dawes who unexpectedly returns home after losing her position, Ainsley Sheridan’s incomparable valet, and Sheridan’s sisters who were not only charming, but funny too.
Along with the treasure seeking and romance are several inspirational themes expertly woven into the story. The first is the importance of family. This is shared in numerous ways with all the various sibling pairs in the story, Scilly families, and Mamm-wynn’s loving relationship with everyone. The second is the worth of a soul as precious as a pearl. Without spoiling anything, I loved the message of true repentance and how important it is to forgive ourselves.
This is definitely one book you don’t want to miss! Highly recommend this second book in the Secrets of the Isles series and can’t wait to read Emily and Bram’s story! I received advanced complimentary copies of this book from the publisher and NetGalley. All opinions are my own and I was not required to provide a positive review.
Amazingly poignant, funny, romantic adventure filled story!
By Melissa’s Bookshelf on January 4, 2022
To Treasure an Heiress has to be one of my all time favorite Roseanna M. White books! This story had everything: a funny, endearing hero whom I completely fell in love with, an amazing slow burn romance, a pirate prince’s treasure, an inspirational story that brought me to tears, dastardly villains, and enough suspense to keep me quickly turning the pages. It’s the brilliant sequel to The Nature of a Lady that I absolutely loved.By Melissa’s Bookshelf on January 4, 2022
