About this listen
AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER
The answer to the biggest question of her life lies in someone else’s past.
Shea Anderson’s beloved Nonna had endless rules for a happy, healthy life: avoid owls, never put a hat on a bed, and never, ever accept a marriage proposal that comes with an heirloom ring. Happily ever after is hard enough without bad karma in the mix.
Naturally, panic sets in when Shea’s boyfriend, John, proposes with an heirloom ring. Yes is her answer, but Nonna’s warning sets Shea on a mission to ensure the ring contains forever energy: She will find its previous owners wherever they may be. With the help of her long-suffering big sister and a nosy journalist eager for a big story, Shea embarks on a journey that takes her from Los Angeles and New York to Italy and Portugal.
Sophisticated, cinematic, and full of lively observations, The Heirloom is a diamond-sharp story for everyone who’s ever tried to make their own good luck.
©2024 Jessie Rosen (P)2024 Penguin AudioCritic reviews
"Heartfelt and beautifully told, The Heirloom is mystery wrapped in a love story that calls into question the very subjective meaning we attach to family stories. Five stars for sure." —Annabel Monaghan, author of Nora Goes Off Script and Same Time Next Summer
"A sparkling globe-trotting adventure that is both heartfelt and hilarious. This novel is a must-read for anyone who has ever dared to shape their own destiny." —Jo Piazza, author of The Sicilian Inheritance
"Jessie Rosen has created a charming and propulsive international trip, with wanderlust balanced by a grounded truth: there’s no place like the home we find in ourselves and with the people we love.” —Avery Carpenter Forrey, author of Social Engagement

Fun read from start to finish!!
Jessie Rosen is a talented writer with a great imagination for storytelling! This book reminded me of my Italian heritage. You will enjoy connecting with the main character and rooting for her perfectly imperfect journey. Enjoy!!

A great journey
I liked the motivation and growth of Shay on her journey. I also felt it was a good way to really look at what “love” is or can be.

Lame
Whiny lead, selfish and utterly not compelling. Ultimately anti-climactic and dissatisfying ending. I felt bad for her fiancé the entire time.
