A review by 100_pages_hr
The Cuban Heiress by Chanel Cleeton

emotional mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.0

Always love revisiting Cleeton's Cuba series. This book wasn't connected to to the Perez sisters but was really good on it's own. I loved how she took a true historical event and added her own characters and plot to it. The addition of the mystery only added to the allure.

I absolutely loved Catherine and Elena. Both were quite impressive women. But I have to say my favorite in the book was actually Julio. I loved his activist activity helping Cubans and I would dearly love an extended epilogue with more of him.

I really loved the romance in this story even though it wasn't the main feature. It was kind of fast but it felt very genuine in its own way. I loved how eventually trust was completely earned.

This book is hard to review without spoilers but the plot twists were everything.
