"His Treasured Bride" by Patti Stockdale

 About the book


Series: Bride Ships: New Voyages #2

Publisher: Sunrise Publishing
Release Date: April 23, 2024
Genre: Historical Romance

In twenty-four hours, marriage, mystery, and mayhem.

After recently arriving in Vancouver Island on a bride ship, aspiring seamstress Daisy Harper is determined not to rush into a hasty and quarrelsome marriage, a mistake her parents made. To avoid choosing the wrong man, she creates a rigorous list of ten requirements for a potential husband.

Mapmaker Seth Ryann moved to the colony to assist his partially blind brother, a local missionary. They’ll soon return to Ireland, but first, Seth is tasked by a friend to find a treasure of gold hidden in the mountains. Seth has the map to the treasure, but he’s missing the key.

When he discovers Daisy somehow has the key, the two agree to search for the treasure together. They’re left with little choice but to quickly enter a marriage of convenience. As they venture into the wilderness and work together to overcome danger, an undeniable attraction grows. But will they find the treasure only to lose what matters most?

My Thoughts

It was fun to be back on Vancouver Island and to see characters that we have gotten to know from previous books. This book could be read as a standalone, but it would be better to read the books in order so you get the backstory about Isaac and the treasure key that plays a major part in this book. I liked reading the book and going on the treasure hunt adventure with Seth and Daisy. There were a couple of things that I wondered if it would have been accurate for the period (Them talking about pirates and "Aye Matey" or "Walk the plank" as well as Daisy saying "peachy" all the time) which threw me out of the story a bit. I look forward to reading the other books in the series.
