About this eBook

 When modern-day Scrooge Hetty Loveridge saw the opportunity to exploit an inheritance tax loophole for her children, she took it. She need only live seven more years. One week shy, she keels over, dead.
With their inheritance at stake, Peter and Kate get more than they bargained for as they attempt to fool the tax-man into believing their mother is still alive. For seven days Peter dresses as his mother, speaks as his mother, acts as his mother, and soon discovers she wasn't just the difficult woman he remembers her as. And when an old flame enters the scene, it's a recipe for disaster.

At the heart of this fast-paced and funny tale is a story about family, redemption, and hidden secrets. Would you do anything to protect your inheritance?

From the writer who brought you the Skip series and The Swiss Family RobinZOM comes this hilarious first part in a new romantic comedy quadriology.

KEEPING MUM. Let the hilarity begin.
