Publisher's summary

When a woman runs from family, fortune, and secrets, love follows in New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello’s dazzling romance.

The Boston Westerlys are reuniting for a wedding - a longtime wish for its matriarch. If only Nicolette, the youngest of the clan’s siblings, could find love. With her true parentage suddenly in question, she feels like more of an outsider than ever. It figures that the one guest of any comfort is her grandmother’s greatest enemy. Now, Nicolette’s only impulse is to run. Disappearing to a small Iowa town, she can build a future on her terms without the Westerly name or money - or the secrets that have divided the family for years.

Despite his damning history with the Westerlys, Bryant Taunton recognizes a kindred spirit in Nicolette. He is drawn to the beautiful loner. When she vanishes, he follows. But Bryant has his own secrets, and gaining Nicolette’s trust won’t be easy. It might even require the help of the family she left behind.

Now, for Nicolette and Bryant, coming to terms with the past is the only way to make both their dreams come true, and to finally find a way home.

Money doesn’t promise happiness

Money doesn’t promise happiness in this 5th in the Heir series. I’m not sure most wealthy people are as down to earth as written into this series. They are; however entertaining, quick reads

Loved this book - narrator was terrific

I always enjoy Ms. Cardello's books. The book was particularly enjoyable because of the chemistry between Nicholette and Bryant. Then add in all the (not drama - too much fun to be called drama) action between ALL the other characters and the book doesn't stop momentum for a minute.

Meh

The storyline was pretty good, but the narrator was strange at times. Whenever she tried to use a different voice for different characters it sounded stilted like a robot or a computer program. It got worse as the book went on to where I was really glad when it was over. I liked the storyline enough though that I wanted to finish the book.

Runaway Heir: 3.8 stars

Sweet and funny story. Quite shallow, but easy reading, with good pace and loveable characters. If you enjoyed the former books in the series then you'll probably will enjoy this one too.

Eric is an amazing man with some issues he needs to deal with. Sage is an exceptional woman with a heart of gold. They make for one fun sexy complicated couple.
