The Inheritance Far From Home
After 25 years of marriage, Barbie Stopford thought she knew everything about her husband. Turns out, Eddie saved his biggest secret for after he died.
When a dusty legal document reveals he left her a hidden estate in Bakewell, England, Barbie does something that shocks everyone, including She books two last-minute tickets and drags her reluctant daughter across the Atlantic.
Florence isn't thrilled—but after a summer she’d rather forget, a spontaneous trip to a storybook English village might be exactly what she needs.
The estate is grand. The locals claim it’s haunted. And the quiet groundskeeper seems to know more about Eddie’s past than Barbie ever did.
As the women uncover clues tucked between cozy garden paths and pints at the village pub, they begin to piece together a version of Eddie neither of them expected. And when Florence finds herself drawn to the groundskeeper’s son (who’s as kind as he is charming), it's a refreshing change from the life she's been pretending to live.
In this strange place, far from home, they both start to wonder if this detour was part of the healing all along.
Some inheritances come with strings attached. This one comes with buried secrets, uncomfortable truths, and the chance to finally stop running from their grief.
This is Book 4 in a brand-new, heartfelt, clean and wholesome series. Scroll up to begin reading today!

And the saga continues!
Book 4 finds Florence doing research into her family history, and not liking what is revealed. Evidence points to her grandparents and great grandparents as not very nice or even decent people. Everything she has uncovered reveals them to be greedy, conniving and deceitful. Very wealthy land owners who cheated people who worked for them and turning them out when they were ill. Also despite being told her dad's parents are deceased there is no record or history of it. In fact there are towns people who are under the belief that they are still alive! Now I have to finish the series just to find out what happens. Thank goodness they are free.

The story is a good one. I liked it. Like many other reviewers, it is obnoxious to split this story up into 6 books that are only about 80 pages apiece. You just get going and then have to go get another book. Why not just put it into one or two books at the most? Can’t imagine the reason for this. And it’s not like you can just walk away after any of the books. That’s like putting a book down less than halfway through and walking away. I would have given it more stars had it not been for that nuisance.

The possibly ghostly activity is increasing and Florence is still annoying. Emory seems like a nice character who has unfortunate taste in girls. The family legacy is slowly being revealed and it is not pretty. The writing is moving the story along and has a big cliff hanger at the end of the novella.

awful
Not reading or buying any of her books again. Only 80 pages, two chapters explained the previous book. You’re paying for a short comic book, she is no real writer. Everyone is scamming everyone on these books, disgusting!

Someone strikes again
The series continues, the incidents continue and sightings continue. This is an easy series to keep you turning the pages to find answers.

These are a quick read that keep you wanting for more. I still don't understand why they aren't in just one book.
