A Rather Lovely Inheritance

By: CA Belmond

Narrated by: Katherine Kellgren

This is your life Penny Nichols....

Penny Nichols is a historical researcher working on a big-budget film in the south of France when she gets an urgent call. Her Aunt Penelope has just died, and Penny's presence is required in London for the reading of the will.

A rather lovely inheritance....

With only a slim recollection of her eccentric aunt, Penny is astonished to learn that not only is she the bona fide heiress - but she's also been invited to put her research skills to work. This time, the history she's researching happens to be her very own.

To the irresistible dare of a lifetime....

What she discovers about Aunt Penelope, a pair of wills, double lives, secret histories, and a family tree of 'vultures' is about to sweep Penny and a long-lost relative across France, over the hills of Italy, and through half of Europe on the adventure of several lifetimes. This is her life, her past, her chance at love - and Penny's going to live with the kind of passion she's always dreamed of!

Meh a little too sappy for me

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

it was ok. I like a little less fairy tale and a little more intrigue.

Would you be willing to try another book from CA Belmond? Why or why not?

I am not sure. I found this to be a grade up from a Harlequin romance. Not my taste.

Would you be willing to try another one of Katherine Kellgren’s performances?

maybe

Was A Rather Lovely Inheritance worth the listening time?

not really but I finished it

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this to a young teenage girl.

Almost gave up... A lot.

I waited quite a while before anything interesting happened, and when it finally did I still had trouble staying interested. Writing was mediocre at best.

FOUND on a list of must read books and LOVED IT!

Where does A Rather Lovely Inheritance rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Very enjoyable....the story, the narrator, the amount of suspense/mystery.

What other book might you compare A Rather Lovely Inheritance to and why?

Nancy Thayer and The Guest Cottage. Maybe Wendy Wax's and her Ten Beach Road series . Beth Harbisons When in Doubt, Add Butter or her Driving with the Top Down.

Which character – as performed by Katherine Kellgren – was your favorite?

I loved every character and how she portrayed them.

Any additional comments?

Loved this story...a little bit of intrigue, a bit of fun, lots of guessing....and a whole lot of wishing that I was the one who inherited the garage.

Relaxing sweet story

I throughly enjoyed listening to this entertaining book. The narrator did a great job and the story had just enough of an intriguing plot to keep me interested. I’m planning to listen to the rest of the series and find out what happens in Penny Nichols life.

great fun story

I enjoyed this story. the narrater had a good voice. the story was a cute journey of two people and a lovly surrounding.
