Adrian Rizzo was seven when she met her father for the first time. That was the day he nearly killed her—before her mother, Lina, stepped in.

Soon after, Adrian was dropped off at her grandparents’ house in Maryland, where she spent a long summer drinking lemonade, playing with dogs, making a new best friend—and developing the stirrings of a crush on her friend’s ten-year-old brother. Lina, meanwhile, traveled the country promoting her fitness brand and turning it into a billion-dollar business. There was no point in dwelling on the past.

A decade later, Adrian has created her own line of yoga and workout videos, following in Lina’s footsteps but intent on maintaining creative control. And she’s just as cool-headed and ambitious as her mother. They aren’t close, but they’re cordial—as long as neither crosses the other.

But while Lina dismisses the death threats that Adrian starts getting as a routine part of her daughter’s growing celebrity, Adrian can’t help but find the vicious rhymes unsettling. Year after year, they keep arriving—the postmarks changing, but the menacing tone the same. They continue after she returns to Maryland and becomes reacquainted with Raylan, her childhood crush, all grown up and as gorgeously green-eyed as ever. Sometimes it even seems like the terrifying messages are indeed routine, like nothing will come of them. Until the murders start, and the escalation begins…

LEGACY BY Nora Roberts
BOOK REVIEW

I received a copy of this book from the publisher for free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

As always Nora Roberts knows how to write a captivating romance with an ensnaring dose of suspense. It’s almost a given that her books are page turners. And books I’ll drop everything to read.

I also love how trendy her books have become. The author goes with the times, her heroines are strong, savvy, smart, and accomplished. And I really enjoyed the fitness elements, and the video making. It quickly became apparent that the author did her research, as always.

There were a couple things that made this book extra enjoyable: the kids, the dogs, the friends, and as always a charming town as supporting cast.

And of course I can’t ignore the couple. They were lovely, and I adored their connection, the easy repertoire between them, their chemistry and flirty back and forth. They made it seem so effortless.

And OMG the friendships. Nora Roberts is amazing at writing female friendships. The women are kind, genuine and their support for each other is heartwarming. I always end these books feeling good.

Also the suspense was just the right amount to add an edge to the plot. The ugly, bloody component always reminded me that something deadly was coming. But it never took away from the overall plot, the heroine’s journey.

The author found a formula that works for her and for me. Once a year I’m looking forward to her standalone with excitement and always, alwasys finish them with a high.

||> This book is perfect for anyone loving a great romance, with a wonderful cast, skilful writing and top notch plot development, strong family roots, and the best kind of supporting cast.
