Legacy of Love ~ Linda Shenton Matchett

This is book 10 of the Keepers of the Light series, Christian Historical read.  Meg moves to Oregon from Boston, to escape a marriage of convenience.  Soon she finds that she has inherited and estate and it is back on the east coast.  She is not a fan to go back, and has to make the choice to stay or go back.  She has befriended Reuben, who wants to convince her to go back, he gives her until Christmas to make that choice.  What will Meg do?  Does Reuben have more in mind then what is best for Meg?  What will happen if she makes the wrong choice?

If you like a light romance and going back into history then you will really enjoy reading this book.  It is book 10 of the series, but can be read as a standalone.  This would make a great Hallmark channel series.  It is a page turner and short, so can be read in one sitting.

Will their love come at a cost?

Escaping Boston to avoid a marriage of convenience aimed at garnering society’s respect for her family name in the shadow of her father’s war profiteering, Meg Underwood settles in Spruce Hill, Oregon. Despite leaving behind the comforts of wealth, she’s happy. Then the handsome Pinkerton agent, Reuben Jessop, arrives with news that she’s inherited her aunt’s significant estate, and she must return home to claim the bequest. Meg refuses to make the trip. Unwilling to fail at his mission, Reuben gives her until Christmas to prove why she should remain in Spruce Hill and give up the opportunity to become a woman of means. When he seems to want more than friendship, she wonders if her new-found wealth is the basis of his attraction.

 More from Linda

Dear Reader:

 Have you ever dreamed of winning the lottery?

 Last year, that happened to someone at work. Not millions, but a significant amount of money. As a result, she immediately cut her hours to part-time and began to do things she hadn’t been able to. Her good fortune prompted a lot of conversations among my colleagues about what they would do if they came into a large sum of money.

 Those discussions inspired the plotline for Legacy of Love, but instead of winning the lottery my main character comes into a large inheritance. As a result, everyone treats her differently and weighs in on what she should do. Her friendships are affected, and her life is turned upside down. She was happy before the inheritance, however the money would allow her to perform acts of kindness. But at what cost?

 I hope you enjoy Hannah’s story.

 Blessings,

Linda Shenton Matchett
