The Unexpected Heiress Theory Page



Welcome to the The Unexpected Heiress Theory Page. This is a place where you can discuss confirmed, debunked, and unconfirmed theories from the The Unexpected Heiress series.

Current & Unconfirmed Theories

 * Gender-Locked: Due to the title of the book released in Choices Insider July 2020, it is possible that this book will be gender-locked when released to the non-VIP audience.

Debunked Theories

 * World War I: It's possible that World War I will play a significant role in this story because it lasted from 1914 to 1918, and the story is stated to take place in the 1910s. This theory is debunked as World War I has not yet started and plays no role in the plot.
 * Hugh Crawford is a Somerset: With ties to A Very Scandalous Proposal and Simon/Ava Montjoy mentioning that an "American Heiress" married into the family, if the American Heiress is Your Character, Hugh Crawford is the only love interest who is not obviously related to the Somerset / Montjoy family. If Amelia Hayes discovered the truth about his bloodline, that would be a motive for her murder. This theory is debunked when the murderer is revealed in Chapter 16.
 * Gemma Montjoy will remarry and/or have (or adopt) a child: With ties to A Very Scandalous Proposal and Simon/Ava Monjoy being third cousins with Hugo Lawson, the ancestors they share would be Gemma Montjoy and Thomas Montjoy. Because Thomas only had one son and heir --Andrew Oliver Montjoy-- before his death, this leads to Gemma remarrying and/or having or adopting a child of her own, who would then lead to Hugo's bloodline. This theory is partially debunked in Chapter 16. While your character has the option of marrying Gemma, the story does not progress further than that and it is unknown whether the two of you will adopt or surrogate a child.
 * General release: It is believed this book will be released generally sometime in the fall (late September at the earliest), after AVSP (which is expected to run until mid September) is finished. PB debunked this in Choices Insiders July 2021 when they revealed the book will be released generally in August.
