Melody loves her job as a hospice nurse even though it is
tough to watch people in their final stages of life. While
nursing Old Roy, she strikes up a genuine friendship with
him,
and when she needs somewhere to stay, he helps her out by
offering her his spare room. But Melody never expected
that
when Roy died he would leave her half of his cabin by the
lake, with his estranged nephew receiving the other half.
For
the girl who was always bounced from one foster home to
another, it is a dream come true to finally have a home of
her
own, even if she believes she will always be alone. And
there
is no way that she is going to let some selfish jerk, who
wasn't even there for Roy at the end, push her out of her
new
life.
Levi McDaniels has finally come home. After cheating death
in
the war, he carries both physical and mental scars that he
struggles with. Heartbroken that his uncle is gone before
they
could patch things up, Levi is determined to get rid of
the
gold digger that has inherited half of his childhood home.
Just because he has lost one leg doesn't mean that he will
be
a pushover.
When Melody and Levi meet, neither are prepared for the
confusing feelings that spring up between them. And as it
becomes clear that they are stuck with each other as
roommates
for the next year, will they be able to figure out what it
is
that they want from each other? Throw in a chaotic canine,
some true friends, online dating and a disastrous blast
from
the past, and Melody and Levi may get a whole lot more
than
they bargained for!
THE INHERITANCE by Morgan K. Wyatt is a sweet,
contemporary
romance that had me smiling and crying in equal measure.
Melody's career and relationships with her patients had me
shedding a tear on more than one occasion, and the author
wrote these scenes with beautiful compassion and
tenderness.
Both Melody and Levi have had extremely tough times in
their
lives and it was interesting to watch their friendship
develop
and evolve, as they adjusted to their differences and
discovered their similarities. THE INHERITANCE by Morgan
K.
Wyatt is a delightful read and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
SUMMARY
Melody’s work as a hospice nurse both gives her life
purpose
and rips her heart out when her patients die. Her latest
client left her his lakeside home. After years of living
in
foster homes, Melody seizes the opportunity for a real
home. Her happy residence comes to an abrupt halt when her
benefactor’s missing nephew, Levi, shows up. A bomb
shattered his leg and life, which left him in need of a
safe
place to figure out the rest of his life. The will leaves
the house to both of them, but only if they cohabit for a
year. Otherwise, the house goes to a third party. Melody detests Levi for never writing or visiting his
dying
uncle. Levi considers Melody little more than a gold
digger
similar to his ex-wife. There’s no way he’ll let her have
his inheritance.

Re: Sometimes friendship blossoms in the most unlikely of places....
Great review. I hope the reviewer is a writer because she
has a way with words. :)
