Lost Fortune - Historical Western Romance
Is he her salvation…or her undoing?
When Rilla Staab returns to Boston after graduating from a Parisian finishing school, she learns she’s not only an orphan, she’s illegitimate. She’s a love child of means, thanks to her father’s bequest, but all hope for a suitable match is gone.
Rilla buries her shame under an assumed identity and flees West, her only regret she may never again see the charming, grey-eyed Cal Dalton, whose brief acquaintance is burned in her memory.
Pinkerton agent Cal Dalton can’t forget the fleeting moment he held the prim and proper “Miss Privet” in his arms—the one bright spot in a long, fruitless, and distasteful assignment to find a mysterious heiress for a greedy client. When Cal receives a letter from Miss Privet confessing her true identity, he realizes the very woman he seeks is the woman who haunts his dreams.
It’s as simple and as complicated as that. Especially since Cal’s client thirsts for revenge—and Rilla’s very life hangs in the balance between Cal’s sworn duty and his heart.
“Lost Fortune” is the 1st book in Sandra E. Sinclair’s “Unbridled” historical, western romance series—where the female are all strong, capable and sassy, but most of all…unbridled. If you like escaping into bygone days when the west was wild and women wore big dresses, you will love the “Unbridled” series.

I liked the plot, but I found the story lacking. I never felt excited to find out how & when they would fall in love. They were drawn to each other at first sight, but their love story fell flat for me. I did want the villain to change, at least admit to her he wants to change, but I guess he needs much more time than the book allows. FYI...It was clean, but there were a couple curse words.Product details

Lost Fortune The Unbridled Series Book 1 edition by Sandra E Sinclair Meg Amor Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A young lady had been sent to France for finishing school, as she finished and came home she found out they were killed prior to her arrival. The attorney met her at the station carrying her back to his office to relate the facts. A man headlined into her on her arrival and gave her his card hoping she would contact him. The man was working for her Brother who she knew nothing of. She went on to California when they found her there the troubles began. A must read for those who enjoy historical western romance kindle books from at a special price and from a delightful author who keeps me entertained throughout the entire book.
This is a sweet story about a girl who loses her family, finds out she inherited property and a house in California and decides to move there. She opens up a school for girls and finds out that a man she met briefly on the train going home, is a Pinkerton man, and he has tracked her down in California to tell her that she has a brother. Overall I did enjoy this story. There was one scene that took place that I thought was a bit small town theater that I didn't think really needed to be part of the story, but the rest of the book I did enjoy.
The story is ok, but if you are going to pick a specific year in history, you really need to check your facts... for example there is no way anyone could travel from the eastern states to CA in a week at the point in history this supposedly takes place... there are other anomalies.
At age 18, Rilla Staab returns to the US, having been in a French school since the age of 8. On arrival, she learns that her parents were killed in a carriage accident and that she is an heiress. At the same time she is told that her parents were never married and that her mother was the owner of a "gentlemen's club." Rilla is horrified to learn that her mother ran a whorehouse and is determined to leave Boston. She heads to California where she turns one of her inherited properties into a school. Before she heads West, she meets handsome Cal Dalton, a Pinkerton agent. He is immediately smitten with her but she leaves town before he can act on it. A revengeful half-brother enters the picture to provide the requisite villain.
The story is set during the Civil War, but almost none of the facts add up. She is able to travel from Boston to California in less than a week. Pretty darned sure that is wrong. The hero's family is invited to his wedding which is taking place in one week. (Hopefully he notified them by telegraph, because one letter took 9 months for him to get it!) Anyway, his parents live in the South and are apparently able to cross enemy lines easily because they make the wedding. Odder still, his brother who is being held prisoner in the North makes the wedding. Hmm. There are a lot of historical inconsistencies as well as some incorrect word usage...wearily instead of warily, for instance.
For me, the story lacked the excitement that I expect from my Westerns. I never really connected with the main characters and honestly didn't care what happened to them.
For those interested, this would be considered a clean story as there is absolutely no sex (and no sexual tension)
Thanks to Kay P. Dawson I decided to try your books. I found this one delightful and look forward to reading more. This is a fast paced book of good clean romance with a couple of problems thrown in for excitement. I recommend it highly.
A Comedy of Errors with a Fist Full of Propriety
Good writing and Good story.
A historical romance in case the cover left any doubts. 🙂
Book #1 in The Unbridled Series.
This book has no steam what-so-ever. Its more Good Chemistry. For those of you out there that don’t like the sexy stuff but still want to read a romance, this is the book for you. Personally I would of like at least a heated embrace and/or kiss or two. Despite being on the chaste side, it was still a good story.
The story opens with our heroine, Rilla Staab, pondering the parents she barely knows. They sent her to a boarding school in France at the age of 10 and she hasn’t seen them since. It is now 8 years later and the only communication she has had with them has been through letters. They were supposed to meet her at the train station, but that never happens. Her parents have met their untimely ends in a carriage accident and their lawyer fills her in on all the things her parents have been keeping secret.
Rilla’s world is turned upside down, and to add insult to injury, her inheritance comes with stipulations that are made difficult to accomplish because of the secrets her parents kept from her. Fleeing Boston for California, she hopes to hide her questionable past for long enough to meet the requirements laid out in her father’s will.
A comedy of errors ensues as Rilla’s half-brother Wyatt Worthington fights for what he deems is his, handsome private detective Calvin Dalton fights to win Rilla’s heart, and her best friend Jewel Inghram just fights because she wants her bestie to be happy.
The story sets up book 2 about mid-way through, when we are introduced to Cal’s younger twin brothers Cole and Colt. There are a total of 10 Dalton sons, and they are all single, so I would think that all of the Dalton brude will be getting stories as well considering book 3 is also about a Dalton.
This was my first read by Sandra E Sinclair and it was good. If this book is a representative of what her other works are like, then this would be a good candidate for the shelf I call “The In Between”. It is the books I listen to in between the heavier, darker reads that you need a brain break from, while you lock up the killers, clean off the blood, and put your heart back in your chest.
C.J. McAllister’s narration was good. He is articulate and understandable, but a bit clipped. His voice is smooth and masculine, just needs a little more polish to truly live up to his ability
4 Stars!
