Book Description
Patricia Woodley is having one of those days… weeks… okay, okay… months… Her beloved old bicycle has given up the ghost… She really doesn’t like the idiot contraption she bought as a replacement… And to top it all off, the ceiling of her spare room has sprung a leak and ruined weeks of hard work. Patricia’s not one to easily loose her temper, but with the most important deadline of her career fast approaching - she’s back to square one and her stress levels are at an all-time high. She’s due to present her new knitwear collection to buyers in London, but all she’s got right now is a room full of wet wool, and pile of precious patterns that have turned into papier-mâché. Patricia is at her wits end and more than ready for a good rant! Desperately searching for the right gear as she wobbles her way along the rain-soaked, riverside path towards her cottage, Patricia spots a random bloke lurking on her private land. Bingo – the perfect target! As she reaches for the bell to get his attention, the bike starts to skid and suddenly she’s sliding straight towards the deep, swirling waters of the river Bamton. As the rain continues to fall and the river threatens to burst its banks, will a pair of strong arms wearing a beautifully knitted jumper manage to put Patricia back on track? Or is she simply in for a dangerous dunking? The perfect summer story for those cosy, rainy days. Rainy Days in Upper Bamton is the second standalone novella in the Upper Bamton series.

Book Description
Holly Billingham is in seventh heaven - it’s her favourite time of year – and she’s determined to celebrate it properly. Her pine-scented house is festooned with tinsel and dripping with mistletoe… and no, she won’t apologise! All this sparkle is for her. Just her. And that’s okay. Really it is. Holly had almost forgotten what it felt like to celebrate Christmas. Her ex-husband, Colin, was the biggest scrooge she’d ever met. Now that she’s finally free of him - she's got a lot of making up to do for all those barren, tinsel-free years. Bouncing into Billingham’s Finest Chocolates, Holly can’t quite wrap her head around why everyone else looks like they’ve been bitten on their behinds by something far less fun than the festive spirit. Her grandad’s gorgeous little chocolate factory is her favourite place on earth. Sure… it’s taking her a while to get to grips with the fact that it’s her factory now… but she’s sure the rest of them will warm to her… eventually! Her grandad’s old workforce is a well-oiled machine – admittedly one that still runs on steam power – but they know better than her how to handle the holiday rush. Holly’s determined not to get in the way… until she hears something less-than-festive muttered on the breeze… something to do with Colin. Cue one seriously cute locksmith, an ancient Labrador with a thing for Christmas jumpers, and a whole lot of yuletide chaos as Holly makes it her mission to ensure that even the most ardent grump feels the full force of her season’s greetings. A feisty, funny, festive romance... for anyone in serious need of some holiday spirit! For fans of Heidi Swain, Holly Martin and Polly Babbington.

*Laughter and Happy Ever After in Seabury is a standalone story in the popular Seabury series* Welcome to Seabury - where everyone knows everyone, the average tourist hasn't got a clue it even exists, and that's just how the locals like it! Being left for a nineteen-year-old with a nose ring is a very long way down Lou Walter’s list of “fun things to do after forty” - no matter how much she might laugh it off in public. Still, Seabury has wrapped its loving arms around her, and Lou’s two jobs, new friends and mad cold-water-swimming escapades are keeping her from dwelling on the treacherous little… Deep. Breath. Moving on. Lou’s got her new house to focus on. She always thought buying a house was meant to be the “grown-up thing to do”… but when it comes to this one, she’s not so sure. There was quite a bit of creative licence going on when the estate agent described it as “charmingly rustic”. But – it looks like the cure to Lou's broken heart can be found amongst the tubes of filler and tins of paint. Now, if only she could find the time and energy to tame the garden… When the rampant brambles finally get the better of her, Lou goes in search of a pair of helping hands… and finds more than she’d ever bargained for deep in the undergrowth! A cosy read full of friendship and community spirit, for fans of Holly Martin, Polly Babbington and Heidi Swain. Laughter and Happy Ever After in Seabury is the ninth novella in the Seabury series.
