A Chance Inheritance Spiral-Bound | January 10, 2023

Southern twang and inimitable sass shine through in this brand-new romantic women's fiction from New York Times bestselling author Carolyn Brown

What do a runaway bride, a free spirit, and a corporate exec have in common? Besides all being down on their luck, Lanie, Jodi, and Becky Cornell are all Lizzie Cornell’s granddaughters. Upon inheriting their grandmother’s home and family bait shop, the three cousins return to Catfish, Texas, hoping to find the fresh start they all need.

Turns out living as roommates in Lizzie’s tiny two-bedroom house and running the Catfish Fisherman’s Hut isn’t at all like the idyllic summers they spent as children on the banks of the Red River. But Lizzie’s death has set in motion a chain of events that will cause a new generation of Cornell women to come together. And thanks to this chance inheritance, some local fishermen, and the love of their Granny Lizzie, the Cornell cousins discover that sometimes an ending is really the beginning of a brand-new happily ever after.
