A plane crash in the Shannon River spins Jessica’s Irish honeymoon into a wilderness of unexpected emotions. For Robbie, the heroic Irish time-traveler she met and married in Wyoming, it becomes more than a reunion to the homeland he left…in the nineteenth century.
Things have changed since then. The old manor house of his youth has become the honeymooners B & B, run by descendents of his wild boyhood friend and the willful heiress of the estate. Dual era love stories, a hidden diary and the 104-year-old family healer reveal scandalous secrets and consequences that began with Robbie and trickled down through generations. Can he reset history and restore honor without losing Jessica, the soulmate he vowed to love “forever and a day?”

Vikki’s Musings
Thanks go to the author and Net-Galley for the complimentary copy of The Accidental Heiress by Cj Fosdick. I volunteered to read and review this novel prior to publication. My opinions are my own, and no one has influenced them.
The Accidental Heiress is a lovely tale with compelling characters and an intriguing plot. The pacing is excellent and kept me enmeshed in the story from the beginning to the end. This has a delightful mystery that unfolds throughout the book. The only thing that keeps me from giving this novel 5 Gold Crowns is because, at times, I would lose track of what was happening when the story jumps to the past.
Jessica is the heroine of this novel. She is, at last, on her honeymoon when the plane she’s on plunges into the Shannon River. Her fear when she doesn’t find her husband is visceral and helped me bond with her character right away. After traveling through time to find each other, she can’t lose him. Fortunately, they both survive and are in the same time period.
Robbie is the hero and has many facets to his character that come to light as they visit the home where he grew up–more than one hundred years ago. He’s confused by things he learns happened after he immigrated to America. One thing that never changes is his love for his wife.
While there is a love story in this story, they are already in love and have been married for three years. When he learns he’d left a pregnant Livy when he immigrated from Ireland, it causes a great deal of guilt and confusion he must work through, along with fears he could end up traveling back in time, leaving Jessica and their children. That must be resolved for them to return to the firm foundation of their marriage prior to coming on their honeymoon. I thoroughly enjoyed their emotional journey!
If you enjoy time travel romances with characters that will grab you and not let go, along with an intriguing plot, then you will love The Accidental Heiress as much as I did. This is the first book I’ve read by Ms. Fosdick, and I will be looking at her backlist. Happy reading!
