All she wants is a home, but there is no safe haven when mobsters are after you.
Realtor Ginny Lamont’s family has abandoned her, leaving her with nothing but a warning that she’s in danger. But Ginny’s built a home in New Hampshire. After a childhood of nomadic living, she’s not running again, certainly not because of some nameless, baseless threat. Real estate developer Kade Powers is thrilled … baseless threat.
Real estate developer Kade Powers is thrilled to go out with Nutfield’s beautiful new real estate agent. But the prowler they surprise after their first date offers a glimpse into Ginny’s past and the legacy of lies her parents left her with. She brings a mystery, one he’s determined to help her solve.
With Kade’s help, Ginny searches for the truth of her parents’ criminal activity while her enemies close in. When the mobsters show up in her quaint New England town, will she find a way to bring them down, or will she lose the life—and the man—she’s come to love?

I just love this book! I was so excited to get an early copy of this story and read it in one day! The suspense kept me on edge and the romance was so heartwarming! Robin has easily become another of my favorite, must read authors!!
“It’s just a matter of time before they come after you.”
-‘He opened the car door and, when she was settled in the driver’s seat, handed her the keys. “Be prepared to drive away if you need to. Don’t worry about me—I’ll be fine.” He added that last part with as much confidence as he could. She was probably right, and the house was probably safe. But there were no guarantees, and though he didn’t have the finely tuned instincts of a soldier or a spy, something had felt very wrong. After meeting her eyes one last time, he ran back inside.’- … “There was somebody in the basement.”’
-‘“Kathryn warned me that someone followed me here, that someone’s after me. She told me to run.”’-…
Eeee! Deliciously creepy, as always. This author is the queen of suspense! I love her books. Not a good idea to read them late at night, or just before bed, or when home alone… They aren’t too scary but sometimes they get a little intense. And there’s always that underlying suggestion that someone is watching… she writes it so well that the reader feels immersed in it, as though we are there with the characters. I love it!
-‘“Don’t dig in someone else’s graveyard. Let it go.”
“I can’t. Somebody’s after me.”
The man uttered a curse word under his breath. “Then you’re as good as dead.”’-
Fantastic story. I loved it. Definitely recommend it. Clean, Christian romantic suspense.
4.5 stars for this new release by Robin Patchen! Legacy Rejected is the first book in the Legacy series, but fans of her Hidden Truth series and Beauty in Flight series will be glad to visit some old friends in Nutfield again. Those aren’t at all necessary to enjoy this novel, but if you’ve read them, you will recognize more side characters than if you haven’t.
This book follows Ginny Lamont, a real estate agent who has recently settled in the small town of Nutfield, NH (she was a minor character in the Beauty in Flight series), and finally feels “at home” there after a nomadic childhood. When she is warned by her sister to leave, she disregards the warning and fights for her home. Her budding relationship with the handsome Kade Powers helps that decision along. This book is filled with intense action and suspense, a blossoming romance, family drama, and a strong faith thread as Ginny’s new faith is tried and tested throughout this book. I felt like the romance moved a bit too quickly (and even the characters affirmed that), but because the characters had history and the intensity of the time together in the book, I find it acceptable – however, that is what made me list this as 4.5 instead of 5 stars.
I would strongly recommend this book to lovers of inspirational romantic suspense. You won’t be disappointed!
Special thanks to the author for an advanced e-copy of this book. I was not obligated to write a review and the thoughts contained herein are my own.
When Ginny arrived in New Hampshire she didn’t know her life would be in danger. Kathryn warns Ginny to leave town before Kathryn and her family left. Kade is a wonderful man that. The way he helps to protect Ginny is truly remarkable. You will feel God working throughout this wonderful story. The author will have you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next. I would give this book a higher rating than a five star review if I could. I had the honor to review this book for the author for a honest review.
Really great story. Kept my interest all the wsy through. Highly recommend.
