The Inheritance
And if being forced into submission wasn’t the only way…
For Lani, her dream of becoming a renowned contemporary painter is worth more than anything else until reality hits back and forces her to review her priorities. After all, she needs to eat and pay the rent.
On the verge of collapse, a phone call offers her an amazing opportunity. Her estranged uncle has died and named her in his will. It offers her the possibility to get her hands on a substantial sum of money if she accomplishes a series of tasks locked in a mysterious box.
Only one man can open it and guide her into completing all of them. One very reluctant, secluded, mysterious man. Lani finds herself at the mercy of Sam Langdon, a friend of her uncle, and soon realizes that the handsome, older man has dark secrets of his own.
Compelled to submit in order to get her inheritance, caught up in a storm of lust and desire, Lani must push her limits as well as test those of her unwilling captor. In an unlikely play of power and dominance, two souls collide, redefining their own notion of forgiveness.

Wow! I know that isn’t the greatest of words really to express, so often overused, but really this book just makes you go wow! At least for me it did. I adore India Kells and don’t ever usually even bother reading the blurbs for her books, I just one-click, and this was no exception. I saw it was new and a short read and had a night away to myself! Oh my India, I could have had six more of these!! I read this book in one complete sitting, I refilled my bath over and over till it was done lol. Every single moment was breathtaking. From the emotional and almost spiritual journey we find the characters taking to the wild, steam and erotic bdsm world we venture through with them as well, you are literally drowning in the feelings and words as they drip off the pages, or screens of your kindles. India brings to life with her vibrant storytelling and detailed scenes, Lani and Sam in a way that you will feel as if they were a part of your life all along when you finish the book. I can’t wait to find out what will come next from the ever talented India Kells!

The Inheritance: The Story of an Unlikely Submissive is a riveting five star read by India Kells. OMG!! This Book was fantastic! Ms. Kells is one of my favourite authors, so when I saw this book, I didn’t even have to think about it, and just ‘one-click’- I didn’t even bother reading the blurb- so to say this book surprised me is a bit of an understatement! It wasn’t what I had been expecting- it was so much MORE! This is such an original, fun, emotive, sexy and seductive story. It’s wonderfully written- quite erotic, with sizzlingly HOT encounters, drama, pleasure, pain, grief, guilt, some BDSM, strength, vulnerability, healing, finding ones self, heartache, intrigue, romance, and ART. I devoured it in under an hour, loving every minute and not wanting it to ever end. These wonderful, endearing characters really brought this story to life and made it entirely memorable.
What lengths will struggling artist, Lani, go to in order to fulfil her Uncles final request- and ‘earn’ her inheritance? Add to the mix, a very sexy reclusive billionaire, 6 very specific ‘tasks’- and this story really starts to sizzle!!!
This might be a short story, but it certainly isn’t lacking in content, packing quite a lot into a small space. The one thing I have learned about Ms. Kells’ stories, and I have said this before- but, things are never simple, there are always layers and complexities that are revealed.
I really don’t want to say too much, and give anything away, but, you really should read this incredible story for yourself- you really won’t be disappointed!!
Highly recommended reading!!
Thank you, Ms. Kells!

Inheritance is a novel by India Kells. This is my second novel by this author.
On the verge of getting kick out of her apartment and her business failing, Lani Mackay sees an opportunity to change her circumstances when her uncle passes away and leaves her a set of instructions to follow in order to get the inheritance he has left for her.
Because of her relationship with her Uncle, who didn’t believe in her career as an artist, she is reluctant to take anything. But money could change a lot for her. All she has to do is complete the tasks that are in a box.
Her first unofficial task is to contact a man named Max and convince him to help her. But who is this man? A chance meeting could change two souls who are finding their way.
I really enjoyed this novel. I loved Lani’s independence and her blue hair. I enjoyed learning more about Max and the mystery surrounding him.
This is a quick read but very well written. I wouldn’t mind getting more of their story.

The Inheritance: The Story of an Unlikely Submissive by India Kells is a quick but seductive BDSM read. As usual this story packs a punch, which is what you expect from this author. OMG, I loved this unique and original story. It is well a written, erotic and hot, hot hot read but it is also a bit of an emotional read. India has done such an awesome job with this story that you could literally feel the emotions dripping off the page. The guilt, pain and suffering were at times suffocating. The longing, vulnerability and heartache was all consuming. But the guilty pleasure and connections where breathtaking. I loved everything about this story and the characters and it was one journey I didn’t want to be over, as I fell in love with these characters. I love the complexities that Inda weaves so well that make her stories stand out.
Lani is a struggling artist and one phone call changes her life all together. What follows is the most sizzling and erotic yet heartbreaking time of her life.
This is a must read that I highly recommended.

The Inheritance
The Story of an Unlikely Submissive
By India Kells
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a short but full BDSM story. Loaded with more than sexual feelings. Not for those under 18, due to adult content.
India Kells has written this fast read. While it is the full of sexual scenes, it also has feelings and a storyline. I feel this story is far more than just sex, it's the struggle of being a submissive. I think this is well written and enough to keep you turning the pages. I also love the characters she has put in this story. They stand out and will be forever on my mind. This book is unforgettable. I can't wait to read more from this author. Well Done India Kells! Well Done!

This book is super hot, I mean, level 5 stuff. I have to admit it's going on my list of 'quick hit' erotica favourites! It's a pretty quick read, maybe an hour or so. I enjoyed the flow of the story, though the characters got busy really fast and there wasn't a huge amount of back story development - but that's pretty normal for a novella length story. It was well written too, which isn't always a given with erotica, so that made it even more enjoyable to my nerd-brain! I will be reading more from this author and am glad I took a chance on this book.

The Inheritance was a great 5 star read.
Lani is an artist on the verge of losing her apartment, etc. She needs a little bit more money to finally get her dream. Things aren’t looking really great until she gets a call, its a call that will change everything for her.
Her uncle that she hasn’t seen in 5 years has put her in his will. She is to inherit a lot of money but she has to go to her uncle's friend Sam to complete some tasks that only he can help her with. She finds out very quickly just what Sam is and she finds herself very attracted to him.
Deep glacier blue eyes, dark hair sprinkled with light gray, as was his short beard, he was a wet dream in the flesh.
Things get more interesting as the tasks are completed. We get some hot and heavy moments. And we discover there’s more to Sam than originally thought. I was pulled right in by India Kells
writing. Once you start, you will be done before you know it. I highly recommend this read, you will really enjoy it.

This is a short story that focuses on BDSM and erotica. If this offends you - do not read.
This is a quick and fantastic tale that held my attention from beginning to end. It is right to the point, no unnecessary filler and yet filled with feelings and emotions. The open door sex is extremely detailed and visual. I will admit that I skimmed a bit through it, but if it earmarked if needed in the future ;)
I've read this author's "Sanctuary" series in the past and this is a very different genre. I enjoy her writing and the way she tells a story.
For a short story, THE INHERITANCE is full and satisfying. I absolutely recommend if you enjoy a good, sexy, one handed story.

The Inheritance: The Unlikely story of a Submissive
By India Kells
5 stars
The Inheritance was an amazing story – it might have only been a short read but I was hooked from beginning to end! I have read a few books by this author now and I love her writing style. Her books are well written and engaging. Max and Lani were amazing characters; I fell under their spell straight away! The chemistry and sexual tension between them was hot! Max was everything I love in a hot, older dominant – I am definitely in love with him!! Lani was a great heroin, not the naive one I expected either which was great! This is one of those books that you wish you could go back and start all over again! I would have loved it to be longer, just because I couldn’t get enough of these two!!
This was a fantastic 5 star read that I highly recommend!! I can’t wait for more from this author again in the future – she is definitely one of my favourites!!

The Inheritance, by India Kells, is the story of an unlikely submissive. This steamy and alluring story sweeps the reader through the chapters following Lani in a series of unplanned events that unravel in front of her. The story was captivating and was an instant page turner. The scenes were descriptive and the imagery was above par. Despite this being a shorter story, it was thorough and an amazing read. I absolutely would love to read more about Lani and Max's characters as I felt they were magnetic and this story just wasn't enough for them.
February 27, 2019
This was a superb read if you are looking for a good quick steamy read then you will want to give Lani and Max's story a go. I really enjoyed it and could not put it down. The chemistry between these two was hot this is a super read that will pull you right in and keep you hooked right until the very end. A super read from India I can't wait to read more.

5 out of 5 stars
The story The Inheritance: The Story of an Unlikely Submissive by India Kells is a steamy book that I loved reading. It is a story that hooked me in from the very beginning and didn’t let go until I had read the ending page. I enjoyed reading about the characters of Lani and Max. Lani is a woman who needs help in order to be able to concentrate on being a successful artist. She is beautiful, passionate about her work, and stubborn. She sees a chance to pursue her dreams when her uncle, after passing away, gives her tasks that if accomplished will leave her with a substantial sum of money. Max is a man who is reluctant to help Lani. He is one that is handsome and demands discipline/control. He is also a man that is haunted. Will he help Lani? Lani will be compelled to submit in order to get her inheritance. Will she be able to complete and accomplish the tasks required? Will she finally realize her dream? Read this book to find out. This story is steamy and emotional. My emotions went up and down with the characters. You can feel the boundaries being pushed by both of them. What will they learn about forgiveness? This story has dirty talking and intense dialogue. While it is not a long story it is one that has powerful and raw emotions. It is a book I would recommend reading.

This is my 4th or 5th book by this author and I just can't say enough about how much I absolutely love everything she writes. Every story has me hooked and this one was no different. I was shocked because this did not turn out to be like I thought it would. I was actually a bit hesitant after reading the synopsis but reading it was a given because of this author.
I was so pleasantly surprised. This was awesome and the beginning had me wrapped and it never let go. I fell in love with Lani and Max even more once the story got going. It was Max that worried me but I should have known this author would take great care in her characters and make them real and somewhat broken.
I loved the ending and am completely satisfied with this whole story. I can not wait for another book by this author. Just love her!!
Amazingly Awesome!

Good grief! This short story completely took me by surprise. Lani and Max unexpectedly end up together on an unlikely tale of discovery. This was not a book I was expecting to love. But I absolutely did. Another winner from India Kells.

I think I literally finally took a breath. This is intense and moving and dominating. My insides clenched and turned to liquid while reading this. The emotions of Lani and her fierce inner goddess let loose with Max was awesome. My heart is still pounding and I can't wait to read more by this author.

I loved this book! This is a short story that I read in one sitting, I couldn’t put it down until the end. This is a story about Lanier. She finds out that she has an inheritance from her uncle. But the problem comes when her uncle put conditions on before she can receive it. Max has been tasked with helping her complete the tasks. Their chemistry is over the top. She had no idea that she was missing something in her life until she meets him. Their story is a must read!

Lanier finds out she about her inheritance from her uncle. It comes with conditions that need to be met, in order for her to inherit. Max was her uncle's friend, and is tasked with helping her complete each task in the box. This is a very good book, and is well written!

A lot of erotica is nothing more than sex acts strung together. One of the things I like about this author is that she writes a story… with a plot and developed characters. The sex is the frosting on the cake. Nicely done.

A great read about passion. Lani Mackay is a struggling artist trying to make her way in the world to her own exhibition. When her uncle dies and she is surprisingly named in the will, it is too good an opportunity to pass up. But it comes with a strange request. To gain her inheritance, she must complete a series of tasks contained in a mysterious box. Can she complete them all and get the money she needs to fund her dream?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. Well developed characters like Lani going for her dream no matter what or Max supportive and kind but another side to him. Lani's struggles as an artist were emotive and relatable and her passion for art and the itch to paint was a lovely touch and was beautifully written.
i loved the visual detail throughout the novel like with the secluded nature of Max's house deep in the forest with its wooden cabin feel and hearth fire tat homely as if its a world away from the stresses of life. Or Lani's art painted in vivid colours with passion and beauty. Or the little village in the snow magical and wonderful hidden in the forest. Or the opposites of the red fires and the blue ice so intense it was as if you were actually there and contrasting beautifully. Overall, a great read and i would give it five stars.

The Inheritance: The Story Of An Unlikely Submissive is a fantastic, gripping novella by India Kells. Having read several book by this author in the last year, they are fast becoming a favourite of mine.
This novella may be only 92 pages in length, but there is so much content packed into those 92 pages.
When Lani Mackay’s uncle dies, he leaves a strange legacy for her. He leaves a box filled with instructions for her that only one man can open and also decide if she has fulfilled the instructions properly in order to received her £10 million inheritance.
That man is Max Langdon. Ex dom. This is a gripping story of how Lani convinces Max to open the box and help her carry out the instructions. Little does she know that these instructions will lead her into the world of BDSM with Max.
This story was gripping from the very first page and had me totally gripped until the very end. It was extremely hot and steamy. You may need to have a fan hand when reading the sex scenes. The story is also very emotional in places as Lani strives to break down the barriers that Max has put up around himself.
I thoroughly recommend this book.

The Inheritance by India Kells was the first book I’ve read by this author and I loved it.
Lani Mackay is a struggling artist who is living dollar to dollar and is currently two months behind on her rent.

I had no idea what to expect from this book but I liked it. The Inheritance: The Story of an Unlikely Submissive is written by India Kells. This story follows Lani Mackay. She loses the only relative she has left, her uncle. Her uncle Emile Mackay was a bastard and wouldn’t help her financially even though he had plenty to spare because she decided to pursue her passion instead of get a regular 9 to 5 job. However, he did put her in his will and advised that she must complete some tasks before she is allowed her inheritance. These tasks must be approved by an old associate name Max Langdon. She was able to convince Max to take this on but she didn’t know what to expect. Turns out Max is a Dominant. Even though Max is quite a bit older than her she learns to submit to him. This book is really quick but super hot! I loved this book and could not put it down! Lani is feisty and strong willed. Max is closed off and stubborn. These two together have an amazing connection. I can’t wait to read more from this author!

The Inheritance ( The Story of an Unlikely Submissive) by India Kells
5 Stars!!!!!
I have to admit that I was drawn into this book and just couldn't put it down. I really like how the author was able to build the story and I found the characters to be very realistic. The book really tied well with the first book of hers I read. I really like to see the changes in the secondary lead character Max Langdon.
I really was drawn to the chemistry between Lani and Max. I was eager to see how things would progress given his dominance. I also found myself routing for Lani and her art. I really felt myself going through the emotions with Lani as she knew Max had to find his own way. I just couldn't put the book down and the pages just melted one into the other. I really look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Inheritance by India Kells
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
This book may be on the shorter side but it is packed with so much. The story line is great, not something I have read before and the romance was beautiful.
Lani and Max are a beautiful couple. He does have some issues he needs to work through but I think both of them were just what each other needed to take that next step in each of their lives. I find it weird that Lani’s uncle would be the one to have them play out these tasks, but thankful I got to see where it lead each character. The ending had my heart hurting, I was fearful of what would become of this couple and all of their chemistry.
This book is perfect for a quick but eventful and powerful read. I loved this story and can’t wait to check out more by this great author!

~Worthy of being called a Mackay~
—>>> It was simple task outlined in the video, apparently, to submit the final form stating either success or fail for Lani Mackay upon completion in order to inherit ten million dollars from an uncle who had never once even supported her dream to pursue art. She has even simpler goals, but first she is not going to shy away from trying, not even with this stranger.
Now she has to answer to one difficult-to-read Mr. Max Langdon, who will determine whether she makes the mark in order to satisfy her uncle’s final wishes. The man she meets, however, is far removed from simple. And each task she is to perform will have his hands all over it…and all over her.
Intriguing and captivating story which will draw you in with amazing characters you cannot help but be drawn to and want to know more about!

Taboo Or Not Taboo, that is the question
You know when you read something that's not supposed to turn you on (in conventional society) but it turns you on.... wel that's how I felt with this book!!! And I absolutely LOVED it.
At first you think why would her uncle ever make her do this just to receive her inheritance BUT THEN..... Master Max makes his first appearance and all that thinking flies out the window and all you do is FEEL!!
It was also strange to me that the book was narrated by n man (usually when the writing is more from a female perspective you get a female narrator) even more strange IT WORKED. I can't imagine listening to a different narrator doing this book. Antonio did a superb job.
I highly recommend this book, especially if you're looking for a fast paced, hot and steamy book
