Verity picks up the story of
The Sugar Baron's Daughters
much where Keturah
left off, focusing on the middle daughter. Verity pursues her desire
to become a merchant on the island of Nevis where she and her sisters
reside, much to the consternation of many of the islanders. To go
much past that, this review would be rife with spoilers. Something, I
will not do. I can say that I most highly recommend this book, but
strongly suggest reading the series in sequential order. You will be
glad that you did.
Lisa Bergren gives her readers the
feel of the West Indies as well as crowded colonial cities. Her
dialogue is believable and evokes strong emotions and empathy for her
characters. I am grateful to have received a copy of this book from
Bethany House via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was
under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no
monetary compensation.
