REVIEW: Returning to Claim His Heir by Amanda Cinelli

Returning to Claim His Heir (The Avelar Family Scandals #2) by Amanda Cinelli: An exciting and dramatic amnesia story set in a location where the underbelly of crime is rampant.

Duarte was presumed dead and when he’s reunited with his sister and best friend (Book 1 The Vows He Must Keep) he’s lost his memory of the past 6 months. A link is discovered and Duarte finds Nora, seemingly the only person who can provide answers. Nora’s relief when she hugs him and Duarte’s questions are cast aside when she goes into labor and gives birth to little Liam.

Danger around every corner, Duarte not knowing why Nora feels so familiar and unanswered questions builds the intrigue while Nora is recovering at Duarte’s beautiful home. Intruders, mysterious flash drives and unfamiliar, yet familiar, feelings all form the excitement of Returning to Claim His Heir. Two great characters, one with more secrets to answer than the other with the threat of it all falling apart lead up to a thrillingly emotional finale.

I really liked Returning to Claim his Heir. The plot was exciting and raced along. It can defiantly be read as a stand-alone although I highly recommend Book 1 to obtain the full experience. It was nice to have Dani and her fiancée appear and the beautiful locations were an added bonus.

Highly recommended for those who love a good amnesia story; this one was done really, really well.
