Recent art school graduate Bekah thought she’d hit the jackpot: an unknown relative died, and she inherited a small fortune and a huge house in the mountains of North Carolina.
Trey Howard, the lawyer who handled the estate, is a handsome man in his twenties and they hit it off right away — and soon become more than friends. Bekah expected a pleasant year to get her head together and have a … have a romantic fling. Problem is, the house is full of junk… and siblings she didn’t know she had are willing to kill her for it.
More important, the junk in her new house is magical, she’s surrounded by monsters, and her life seems to be in mortal peril every time she ventures into a new room. As Bekah discovers more about her mysterious benefactor and the magical world he inhabited, she’s realizes that as tough and resourceful as she is, she might just be in over her head…
Heirs of Grace is a tale of family and magic, action and wonder, blending the strong heroine, cheeky humor, and dark fantasy that have become the hallmarks of Tim Pratt’s writing.

Enjoyed the quirkiness of the characters, story line.
Started out to be good but then at about the middle is seemed to me the author lost interest or couldn’t think of anything more interesting.
Good for light reading, but not great.
The idea behind the story was excellent. The blurb was intriguing. I couldn’t stop reading it to find out where it was going and how the author would explain things at the end. And then in the rushed end of the book things went very very wrong. It ended too quickly and there was no satisfaction. I felt like I stopped in the middle of the book …
I LOVED this book! I wish he would write a sequel. I’ve been looking for a similar story ever since.
