Synopsis (Goodreads):
When her beloved Uncle Jolley died, Pandora McVie couldn’t imagine her life without him—only to discover that he planned for her future by leaving her $150 million. But to collect her inheritance, Pandora must spend six months in her uncle’s isolated Catskills mansion with her co-beneficiary, Michael Donohue. If being set up on a half-year date that lasts through Christmas by a last will and testament isn’t humiliating enough, Pandora finds living with Michael intolerable—even as she falls in love with him…Thoughts on A Will and a Way: Money can make people do odd things. Especially when they think they're entitled to it. As turns out, Pandora and Michael's family think exactly that. So when Uncle Jolley dies and leaves the bulk of his money to Pandora and Michael (provided they can live together in his house for six months), well...nobody's really thrilled about it.
This includes Pandora and Michael. She doesn't want the money at all (mostly she thinks it will be more trouble than benefit) and Michael wants the money just to keep it out of the family's hands. Because, frankly, they're all jerks. Pandora and Michael also tend to push each other's buttons in a BIG way whenever they spend any time together, so six months feels like an eternity.
But they decide to do it and it isn't long before the verbal spats turn into something more. Then odd things start happening around them and the house and they realize that there's the slightest possibility someone in the family isn't willing to sit idly by and let all that money slip away from them.
A little dated, but very fun.
