At long last it’s here! Book four in the Ghosts of Rowan Vale series is published today, March 28th, by Boldwood Books.
This one is all about Danny and Brooke, who were unfortunate enough to die just after attending a 1980s pop-themed party, so are stuck for all eternity dressed as Adam Ant and Siobhan from Bananarama!
When two new arrivals turn up in Rowan Vale, Danny's and Brooke's afterlives are turned upside down. And it's a bit of a shock for the newcomers, too!
The other ghosts, meanwhile, have decided to form a singing group to perform a very special song for a very special event. But with disagreements about which song to sing, what to call the group, and with the curmudgeonly Reverend Silas Alexander taking charge, will they even make it through rehearsals?
There’s plenty of humour in this book, but there are some emotional moments, too. Apart from the ghosts we meet two (living) visitors to the village, and their arrival changes everything. Kirsty and Rory are celebrating their wedding anniversary, and they’re staying at The Quicken Tree Inn in Rowan Vale. They’re facing huge challenges in their marriage, and this holiday is really make-or-break for them. They hoped they’d make it. But when they bump into faces from the past, they realise that this anniversary treat might just break it…
The BRAND NEW magical, cosy Cotswolds romance for fans of Heidi Swain, Debbie Johnson and the hit BBC series Ghosts 👻❤️✨

Every book in the Ghosts of Rowan Vale series can be read as a standalone.
Spring has arrived in the Cotswold village of Rowan Vale and everyone is in an optimistic mood.
Everyone except Danny. He’s had a rotten eighteen years stuck in a village where all his hopes and dreams were shattered. His annoying ex-work colleague, who seems determined to look on the bright side of the afterlife, won't leave him alone. And – as if that wasn’t bad enough – he’s facing eternity dressed as Adam Ant.
Meanwhile, in London, Rory plans to whisk his wife Kirsty away to the Cotswolds for their wedding anniversary. But when they arrive in Rowan Vale, Kirsty is horrified. How could her husband be so insensitive?
Rory insists that they stay at The Quicken Tree Inn and face up to the issues in their marriage. Kirsty has no choice but to go along with him, hoping she can finally put what happened all those years ago behind her. But when she spots her long-dead cousin in the village, things take a decidedly difficult turn...
Will confronting the ghosts from her past be a recipe for happiness or disaster?
