The inheritance of a lifetime... with a catch

When Sophie’s uncle leaves her a castle in the Italian Riviera in his will, she can’t believe her luck. The catch? She and her estranged sister, Rachel, must live there together for three months in order to inherit it.  

Having worked in Rome for four years, Sophie’s excited to revisit to Italy, even if it reignites memories of a cheating ex who soon learns of her return and wants to rekindle their spark. Sophie realises that distance does indeed make the heart grow fonder – but for her friend back home, Chris, who she discovers is more to her than just a friend.

With the clock ticking, can Sophie and Rachel stick it out and heal old wounds, or are the sisters destined to go their own way at the end of the three months? And does Chris feel the same way about Sophie as she does for him?

A beautiful story of romance and sisterhood, perfect for fans of Alex Brown and Lucy Coleman.

It's always a treat to be able to sit down and read a new T. A. Williams book, safe in the knowledge that you will be transported to the warmth of Italy, without moving a muscle. 

And this was definitely a treat of a book, as not only do we have yet another new part of Italy, the town of Paradiso, estranged sisters Rachel and Sophie have just inherited a castle, with the stipulation they have to live their for 90 days or it will go to other benefactors in the will. 

After all Uncle George wants his nieces to be back together and getting on again, and if he has to control things from beyond the grave then so be it. 

I loved the descriptions of the castle and also learning just what happened to estrange the sisters in the first place. 

It's far more a story of sisters than about any potential romance, and in fact Sophie frustrated me in her romantic interests and reluctance to act on her feelings. 

My favourite characters were Dan, the gorgeous neighbour in Paradiso who just seems to be an all around good guy, and Jeeves, a chocolate labrador that is almost always present, always on the prowl for food and appears to love the swimming pool! 

This is a very enjoyable story, set to a fabulous backdrop, and some great characters. This really is a little piece of paradise to read! 

Thank you to Canelo and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
