Unfettered ambition.
Familial schisms.
Dark secrets.
The Legacy of Eden has them all.
In this book, a woman recounts her family’s troubled and tragic past while preparing to return to the once grand estate she fled almost two decades earlier.

If you are looking for a book that is sure to grab your attention and suck you in until the very end, The Legacy of Eden is the book for you. Seriously, once I picked it up and started reading it I could not put it down. I found myself wanting to know more with every sentence I read.

From the back of the book:

For generations, Aurelia was the crowning glory of more than three thousand acres of Iowa farmland and golden cornfields. The estate was a monument to matriarch Lavinia Hathaway’s dream to elevate the family name—no matter what relative or stranger she had to destroy in the process. It was a desperation that wrought the downfall of the Hathaways—and the once-prosperous farm.

Now the last inhabitant of the decaying old home has died—alone. None of the surviving members of the Hathaway family want anything to do with the farm, the land or the memories.

Especially Meredith Pincetti. Now living in New York City, for seventeen years Lavinia’s youngest grandchild has tried to forget everything about her family and her past. But with the receipt of a pleading letter, Meredith is again thrust into conflict with the legacy that destroyed her family’s once-great name.

Back at Aurelia, Meredith must confront the rise and fall of the Hathaway family…and her own part in their mottled history.
