Saving Willowbrook

Ella Turner has inherited the farm home, including a 17th century farmhouse, which has been in the family for hundreds of years. There is also a family ghost, ‘the lady’ and there are secret passages.
She’s divorced from her ex (Miles) and is raising her daughter Amy without any help from him, as well as working heavens hard to run some tourist chalets on the land she no longer farms. Miles had tricked Ella and told her the old farm wasn’t coherent enough in architectural style to be heritage listed. But she loves it desperately. Miles has sold the idea of using Willowbrook for a function centre/country hotel though this will mean drowning the farmhouse as they create a lake, bankrupting Ella in the process.
Cameron O’Neal has been a high-flying business consultant, but is about to change paths. One of his last commissions is to look at Willowbrook and find out if it’s as genuinely old as has been claimed. He falls for Ella and gets on like a house on fire with Amy, but the trouble is, he hasn’t told Ella why he came in the first place and their romance takes a huge setback when she finds out.
Ella’s artist cousin Rose is working on a huge project to paint the wildlife of Wiltshire for a big art/nature book, the sort of treasure that people collect. She’s working odd jobs to make ends meet, helping out at Willowbrook sometimes.
Her former partner Oliver (a doctor) returns to the village after a violent incident in A&E in the USA, which has left him jumpy and hating to be shut in any small room. He and Rose are still in love, but can they resolve their differences this time?
To add to her problems, Brett Harding, a stupid man and a heavy drinker, is harassing Ella and is also angry with Rose. He vows to get even with them for his imaginary grievances.
Can Ella retain her farm? Can she trust Cameron to help her save Willowbrook?
