Publisher's summary

When Clarissa Kelly inherits an Irish castle, there’s only one thing standing in her way - the devilishly handsome man living there.

Ian

Wildheath Castle is rightly mine. No one on earth cares more about that beautiful relic than me. I've been the caretaker for the past five years, and the old man promised he'd leave it to me.

Now, his American granddaughter has come all the way to Ireland to usurp me. But I’ll not let that lass outfox me, no matter how badly I want to press her against the wall and give her a proper welcome.

Clarissa

Right away, I know Ian O'Brien is trouble.

With those flashing eyes as green as the countryside and his nature as hard and unforgiving as the rocky Irish cliffs, the man is intense.

And for some reason, he expects me to just hand over the keys to my birthright.

Yeah, that’s not happening. Because, where I come from, possession is nine-tenths of the law. So, I'm moving into the castle with him, and I’m not leaving.

unusual bequest

Clarissa and Ian are both expected to attend her grandfather's reading of the will. They both expect to inherit her grandfather's castle.
I thought it was funny that the grandfather played matchmaker in his will by only allowing the both of them to inherit the Castle only if they were to get married. if they didn't it went to a charity.
Throughout the book there were se very funny and cute moments.

Enjoying the Irish!

Looking for a fun, feel good romance? Look no further! McKenna James takes us on a vacation in an Irish castle! Clarissa has arrived at the castle to settle her grandfather’s estate. Though she didn’t know him well, she has good memories of the castle and is excited for her inheritance. What she doesn’t realize is she isn’t the only one who will benefit. Caretaker to her grandfather, Ian too inherits the castle. and yes, there is a stipulation! The two must marry! Will it work? Should they do it? Can they be friends, married on two continents? McKenna writes with a flirty flare, bouts of humor and steamy passion. Ian’s sister is a hoot and the visual descriptions of the country are incredible! This is a great escape with wonderful characters and a fantastic story!

The dual narration brings it all to life. Patricia Santomasso is perfect as Clarissa. She nails the accent for the Irish characters and gives us all the emotions Clarissa experiences. Sean Patrick Hopkins is new to me and I loved him! What a great Irish brogue! He is Ian!! These two are an amazing team and really enhanced the story!

Lucky Inheritance

A sweet story that puts two people you wouldn’t think would fit together perfectly. I loved the twist that brought them together as well as the inner struggles that they had to overcome. Narration is awesome. I loved the Irish accent.

Inheriting a castle with a twist.

This is a very sweet romance. Strong chemistry. Beautiful Ireland. Well written. Entertaining read.
I listened to Audible version of this book. The narrators both did great jobs performing these characters. They both read male and female parts very well. I especially liked the male narrator. His voice is so sexy. They added to my enjoyment.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Romance at an Irish Castle

After 19 years Clarissa returns to Ireland to claim her grandfathers castle. I found her to be self centered and greedy so it was very hard to root for her. Ian is the handyman staying at the castle who was there for her grandfather when she was not. They store is interesting and good despite me not having any respect for Clarissa. Lucy is a breath of fresh air and probably saved the story for me. The dual narration was great

cute and a little cheesy

If you're looking for an easy listen that isn't overloaded with intimate scenes, this is a good choice. We can see where the story is going the entire time but it was still a really cute listen. It has a fairy tale feel to it due to the castle. The characters could have been developed a little more but I was not disappointed by them.

The narrators did a great job!

Lucky Inheritance sets emotions ablaze ....

Hopkins and Satomasso are quite a pair. From heart palpitations to the ever present frustration, they refused to hold back on the chemistry. Their delivery is flameworthy. McKenna James dishes out the emotions with her ever present flair and as always I was easily hooked. Lucky Inheritance sets emotions ablaze with passion, heart and humor.
