Richer Than Sin by Meghan March

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Riscoff and a Gable can never live happily ever after. Our family feud is the stuff of legends.

Ten years ago, Whitney Gable caught me off guard with her long legs and grab-you-by-the-balls blue eyes. I didn’t know or care what her name was. Like any Riscoff worth the family name, I went after what I wanted. We burned like a flash fire until she married another man. She hates me, and she should. I objected on her wedding day.

Now she’s home, with those same long legs and man-eater stare, but there’s no ring on her finger. They say a Riscoff and a Gable can never live happily ever after…but I’m not done with Whitney Gable.

I’ll never be done with her.

Richer Than Sin

Has Romeo and Juliet feuding family vibes!

The Hero: Lincoln Riscoff – He gets drunk and objects at the wedding where Whitney Gable is marrying another man. He is richer than sin and claims that he can buy and sell the groom. Then he is kicked out of the wedding. The groom smirking at him the entire time. Lincoln knew right then and there he wasn’t done with Whitney Gable. Ten years later his grandfather, Commodore tries to talk him into marrying the woman he is currently seeing since he is the Riscoff heir, but ‘business comes first, last and always’ and their business is a billion dollar conglomerate. Commodore tells him she is returning.

The heroine: Whitney Gable – Whitney was beautiful, confident and oblivious to her affect on men. She met Lincoln right after getting rid of her most recent boyfriend who was cheating on her and wanted some hard liquor and to get out of Gable, but she was stuck. She married a rockstar, left town in a limo and now is returning home by bus as the most hated woman in America, with accusations that she killed her husband because posted something bad on his social media right before overdosing.

The Story: Ten years ago, Lincoln was called home to ‘preserve and protect the legacy’, meaning he has to return home to come back to Gable and work for the family company. He was none too happy about the fact, since he had been living in New York and proving himself in a company that had nothing to do with his family. The town of Gable was nice, in the mountains and all, but the feud between the Riscoff’s and the Gable’s was the stuff of legends. The Gables jumped the Riscoff’s gold claim which started a feud that has lasted 170 years.

Lincoln was sitting in a dive bar in casual clothes and a baseball cap when she walked into the bar and turned his world upside down. Lincoln was attracted to the woman from the start. He felt a connection to her like he had never felt before with another woman. When another man shoves her in the bar, Lincoln steps in and they hightail it out of the place and end up spending the night together before finding out who each other is. Everything changed in the morning after she found out who he was.

I usually hate when there are large time gaps in a book, though I do love Meghan March and this was one of the few series of hers that I hadn’t yet read or listened to. This one had flashbacks to the time ten years ago when she broke up with Ricky the cheating rockstar and met Lincoln. The story was ok, but I guess I didn’t really like the conflict in this one. I didn’t like the whole Romeo/Juliet type storyline because I want my Hero to be more in control of his own life.

This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Joe Arden and Erin Mallon, these are two of the best in the business and both are in my list of favorite narrators. Joe has a deep and gravelly voice which is always sexy and works well in any romance. Erin has a clear feminine voice and she is able to show emotion through her voice very nicely. They are terrific together.
