Thank you to Sunrise Publishing and the authors for the ARC of His Treasured Bride by Jody Hedlund and Patti Stockdale. All opinions are my own. 

After reading Finally His Bride, which is book one in the Bride Ships: New Voyages series, I knew that I wanted to read the next book to find out what happened with the treasure. 

His Treasured Bride is both a romance and a sort of adventure story with characters facing danger and getting to know one another through a marriage of convenience. 

Marriage of convenience is one of my favorite tropes, and it was done so well in this story. Seth was very protective of Daisy, and I love how he would do anything for her even though he hadn’t known her for very long. 

The romance in this story wasn’t as strong as some of Jody Hedlund’s other stories, but I still enjoyed it. I feel like this book focused more on the friendship between the love interests instead of the romance (although there were a few really sweet romantic moments throughout). 

Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, closed-door historical romance.
