Review: Legacy Rejected (The Legacy #1) by Robin Patchen

About the Book

All she wants is a home, but there is no safe haven when mobsters are after you.

  

Realtor Ginny Lamont's family has abandoned her, leaving her with nothing but a warning that she’s in danger. But Ginny's built a home in New Hampshire. After a childhood of nomadic living, she’s not running again, certainly not because of some nameless, baseless threat.

Real estate developer Kade Powers is thrilled to go out with Nutfield’s beautiful new real estate agent. But the prowler they surprise after their first date offers a glimpse into Ginny's past and the legacy of lies her parents left her with. She brings a mystery, one he’s determined to help her solve.

With Kade’s help, Ginny searches for the truth of her parents’ criminal activity while her enemies close in. When the mobsters show up in her quaint New England town, will she find a way to bring them down, or will she lose the life—and the man—she’s come to love?

My Thoughts

Ginny Lamont moved to Nutfield to be closer to her sister Kathryn, but she wants nothing to do with Ginny. Kathryn even goes so far as to move away, trying to sneak away before Ginny notices she's gone. Ginny catches her before she departs and Kathryn leaves her with a warning to leave too. She needs to run before “they” show up. But she can't leave. She's got nowhere else to go. Plus she loves Nutfield. It feels like home to her. It's not long before “they” show up, though, and Ginny's questioning her decision to stay.

Legacy Rejected started off slow for me. It took awhile to grab my interest and I never really connected to either one of the characters. Also, there were a few things that didn't seem very believable. But by no means was it bad. I just think I wasn't really in the mood for this type of book which is a shame and is probably why I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. There's a ton of people who have really loved it, though, so don't just take my word on it.
