Today it’s letter T on the A to Z Challenge. My book is “The 20’s Girl, The Ghost and All That Jazz” by June Kearns. Genre: Romance
Book Title: The 20’s Girl, the ghost, and all that jazz
Book Description:
1924. The English Shires after the Great War – all crumbling country houses and no men.
When her jazzing flapper of an aunt dies, Gerardina Mary Chiledexter inherits some silver-topped scent bottles, a wardrobe of love-affair clothes, and astonishingly, a half-share in a million-acre cattle ranch in south-west Texas.
Haunted by a psychic cat, and the ghost voice of her aunt, Gerry feels driven to go and see this for herself.
Against a backdrop of big sky, cattle barons and oil wells, she is soon engaged in a game of power, pride and attraction with the Texan who owns the other half.
Available from Amazon in both paperback and Kindle viewbook.at/The20sGirlKindle

This lovely, lovely book has fast become a favourite of mine. June writes beautifully, with a lightness of touch that speaks volumes about class and social mores of the time. There’s layers of depth beneath the layers of tulle! A must-read for this summer.
