About the Book

One family’s mystery leads to a legacy of secrets and hidden
truths! As Meg works to uncover the treasures from yesteryear,
her heart seeks her future with Jamie Cunningham. Can she
solve the clues and find her heart’s desire, or will her cousin rip
away her promising future?
Devastated by the loss of both of her beloved parents, eighteen-year-old
Margaret Wentworth is given more bad news: she is destitute and must leave
her London home to live with relatives she has never met. After burying both
parents on the same day, Meg didn't think her future could get more bleak.
Still, her cold reception and unpleasant interview with the Duke of Rochester
at her new home, The Haven, provides a dim view of indefinite, unpaid
servitude.
James Cunningham, the fifth son of the Duke of Sommerville, travels
between clients and London when he meets Meg under duress. Ever the
gentleman, he comes to her rescue only to fall head over heels himself. Since
an official introduction was not offered, he uses other means to discover her
plight.
Meg begins her duties with a heavy heart, only to discover her favorite cousin
is coming to visit The Haven. After her cousin arrives, battle lines are drawn
between Meg's cousins over who will determine her future. One will control
her every movement and every aspect of her life, and the other will grant her
freedom to live the life of her dreams. All Meg must do is solve a forgotten
family mystery.

"This was an interesting book and one that I need to read the sequel to. The story started in this book and has a clamp on my brain to find out what happens next. I recommend this to anyone who likes a good mystery. If you like history, you'll like this story and be, like me, panting for more."
"This was an absolutely insane book. The search for family heirlooms, the love interest, the guardian of family members. This was just such an amazing regency romance. I was always waiting to see what happened next. I would love for their being more from these characters and this author."
I read the historical novel 'Legacy From Yesteryear' in just one night. I began reading just to give a quick look, but the book was so entertaining that I could not leave it.
Margaret Wentworth loses her parents and, consequentially, her home. She’s forced to work unpaid in her new house, The Haven, where the Duke of Rochester lives. Her opinions are well described. The author underlines her difficult existence and her pitiful condition as a woman who lives with little freedom. Her situation starts to improve when she meets James Cunningham. She likes him; the man will be very helpful to improve her existence.
All characters in this book are described with rich details about their psychology that make them crisp and real. The backgrounds are interesting and 1800 set is attention-seizing. The plot is marvelous and makes this book a genuine page turner.
I would recommend it to every kind of reader.
