Boomerville at Ballymegille by Caroline James- Romantic Comedy / Women’s fictionl
“Boomerville is back!”
Hattie is back at Boomerville after sadly losing her husband. This is perfect timing as Julia is
off to Ireland to begin a new Boomerville Hotel over there, the love of her own life having
gone back to the USA. Melissa has arrived at the Cumbria location to escape her mercurial
and violent husband Malcolm, finally having found the courage to leave him. Bill is a rather
angry troubled soul and even those who are kind to him, he really doesn’t want anything to
do with them. He constantly hears his mother's toxic voice in his head telling him he is no
good and will never amount to anything. Anyone who has suffered this will totally understand
the devastating effect someone can have even from a distance- coercive control. This to m
e is rather more than “just” a rom com book (that's not putting anything down- far from it).
It has a message perhaps for many that life goes on and making the best of our own
situations whatever they maybe. A book with feeling and one of warmth and hope.
A tear and a smile and perhaps a reflection on life. A highly enjoyable read.

Boomerville is back!
Join Hattie and Jo as they head to Southern Ireland to open Boomerville Manor, a holiday retreat for guests of ‘a certain age’. There’s Irish craic and shenanigans aplenty for the colourful cast of characters as everyone gathers for the grand opening.
Meet Melissa, an ex-cabaret singer running from her abusive husband, and Bill, a bachelor bullied from beyond the grave by the ghostly voice of his mother. Along with local bobby Harry the Helmet, ageing aquatic team the Boomerville Babes, eccentric artist Lucinda Gray, and heartthrob Finbar Murphy, they gather in Ireland and the fun begins. But murder is in the air and there’s mischief afoot. Will the residents get more than they bargained for at Boomerville?
Set in the beautiful Irish countryside, ‘Boomerville at Ballymegille’ is a heart-warming story of friendship, fears and new beginnings.
