The Heiress of Winterwood by Sarah Ladd is the story of Amelia Barrett. When her friend Kathleen Sterling dies, Amelia promises to take care of her infant daughter- a daughter who has never been seen by her sea-captain father. Amelia must marry by 24 in order to inherit Winterwood Estate, and despite the fact that her uncle has already picked out a husband for her, Amelia devices a plan to marry Captain Graham Sterling and keep Kathleen's baby with her. When Lucy and her nurse are kidnapped just days before Amelia and Graham are to marry, they must figure out who is against them and if they can marry out of love instead of convenience.This book was OK. It was very wordy, which made some of the writing beautiful and some of it just long-winded. I'd say the suspense factor was pretty good, and also the message of the book.
