Excerpt From Birthright
As a bit of a Christmas treat, I am excited to tell you that my publisher has uploaded an excerpt from Birthright, my February 19th, 2018 release.
Is an inheritance a privilege or a right? Three families, three claims, one inheritence. Let the scheming begin!
Anyone who has navigated the rocky shoals of inheritence or knows people who have will relate to this book. The blurb says...
Is an inheritance a privilege or a right?
Does it show love? Margaret, the matriarch of the wealthy Jamieson family, has always been as tight-fisted with the family money as she is with her affection. Her eldest daughter, Sarah, is successful in her own right as a wife, mother and part owner of a gourmet food empire. But it’s not enough to impress her mother. Always in the shadow cast by the golden glow of her younger brother, Sarah feels compelled to meet Margaret’s every demand to earn her love.
Does it give security? After a poverty-stricken childhood, Anita has claimed the social status she’s worked so hard to achieve by marrying Cameron Jamieson. Although they have a comfortable life, she’s never able to fully relax, fearing everything can change in a heartbeat.
Or idoes it mean freedom? Ellie, the youngest, has lived a nomadic and — according to her siblings — a selfish life, leaving them to care for their ageing mother. For her, freedom means staying far away from the strings attached to her inheritance, but she needs to consider her young son’s future as well.
As their mother’s health deteriorates, will long-held secrets and childhood rivalries smash this family into pieces?
Birthright is an addictive and page-turning story of the relationships between siblings, and of deceit, betrayal and revenge.
