Description
Inheritance is the first in The Lost Bride Trilogy by #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts—a tale of tragedies, loves found and lost, and a family haunted for generations.
1806: Astrid Poole sits in her bridal clothes, overwhelmed with happiness. But before her marriage can be consummated, she is murdered, and the circle of gold torn from her finger. Her last words are a promise to Collin never to leave him…
Graphic designer Sonya MacTavish is stunned to learn that her late father had a twin he never knew about—and that her newly discovered uncle, Collin Poole, has left her almost everything he owned, including a majestic Victorian house on the Maine coast, which the will stipulates she must live in it for at least three years. Her engagement recently broken, she sets off to find out why the boys were separated at birth—and why it was all kept secret until a genealogy website brought it to light.
Trey, the young lawyer who greets her at the sprawling clifftop manor, notes Sonya’s unease—and acknowledges that yes, the place is haunted…but just a little. Sure enough, Sonya finds objects moved and music playing out of nowhere. She sees a painting by her father inexplicably hanging in her deceased uncle’s office, and a portrait of a woman named Astrid, whom the lawyer refers to as “the first lost bride.” It’s becoming clear that Sonya has inherited far more than a house. She has inherited a centuries-old curse, and a puzzle to be solved if there is any hope of breaking it…

Inheritance
3By glass brokenWas very dissatisfied with the way this book ended. Left you hanging. I love Nora Robert’s books usually. But this was disappointing.100% read!
4By luna,titan,and skys momI started a little slow, but once you get past the first couple of chapters it pulls you in and you can’t stop reading. Go ahead and buy the second book also because the first one ends mid story and picks right up in the second.Inheritance
5By cerm-betStoryline pulls you in couldn’t put down!Couldn’t put it down
5By ettamorenaI Loved this book so much that within the first couple pages I bought it. I couldn’t put this book down and stayed up to the wee hours of the night reading it. I finished reading it in a day and half. It nailed all the things I love murder, mystery, love, romance, drama, paranormal and everything else in between. Keep the wonderful stories coming Nora ♥️Ending
5By sp3032Loved this book just not sure I liked the ending.Too much fluff, not enough substance
2By SK01928374651The concept is interesting but the story drags and drags and drags with no substance, progress or excitement for too long. I really wanted to enjoy this but it’s become too boring to continue. The pace is way too slow and not enough happens to keep you hooked.Oh NUTS!
4By karenindixieI love Nora’s books, but I hate to be swept away only to have the magic carpet pulled out from under my feet st the end. A little more closure snd a little less cliffhanger…please!!!! It could be a while before I get the next book in the series!!!!Loved the premise…
4By rebelmegan85A gothic mansion on the coast in Maine with a haunted background… sign me up! I loved the premise and story line of this book. However, i wish the main character Sonya was less of a whiner and more open minded to the supernatural around her.One of her best!
5By Reader 707One of the best Nora Roberts books I’ve read. Sooo glad it’s a series because I’m not ready for the story to be over.Inheritance
5By BolemomWonderful storyJust WOW!
5By readinghealsAs usual Nora Roberts knocks it out of the park. The dialogue, characters and plot are excellent. Not an ending in this the first of the Trilogy, but an extreme urge to read the next in the series.Awesome and suspenseful
5By LsooterI really liked the characters. It kept me guessing. I am excited for the next book.Fun haunted mansion/family novel
4By LMF2012It is a bit much to have ghosts bringing in firewood and cleaning the house but the story flows.Nope
1By mar4everI had to force myself to finish this book… very slow, i feel there were many more opportunities to add better substance, also very predictable…. That’s just my opinion…Best Best Best
5By Lumpy the leapster15This is the best of Nora Robert’s books. Keep reading. I can’t wait till the next one comes out.Inheritance
5By C. MiracleAnother great bookCliff Hanger
5By RebekahKhanNora typically ties up endings, she did not in this book…it’s a literal cliff hanger…I’m shook…the author never fails to pull me in…Inheritance
