Smart, witty, and delightfully offbeat, this new novel from the author of <i>The Happy Hour Choir </i>and <i>Bittersweet Creek </i>is an uplifting story about following your heart, even when it leads to the last place you'd expectâEuro¦<br><br>Presley Cline has put aside dreams of Hollywood stardom and come back to Ellery, Tennessee, to work in a beauty shop. In truth, the dreams in question were more her mother's than her own. Presley may have the face and body of a movie icon, but she lacks the stomach for it. Yet a loving relationship and normal home life seem almost as unattainable as an Oscar. Being able to see and speak to dead people certainly isn't helping.<br><br>Presley's first job, beautifying &quot;clients&quot; at the Anderson Funeral Home, is quite a change from working on a movie set. The place is home to dozens of ghosts all hoping that Presley can help them move on--and also one very-much-alive owner, Declan Anderson. Like Presley, Declan is caught between following family expectations and his own aspirations. But with a little meddling from loved ones and locals--both living and dead--Presley is starting to see that life is too short not to be who you want to be, and the most rewarding journeys involve some unexpected detoursâEuro¦<br><br><b>Praise for Sally Kilpatrick's The Happy Hour Choir </b><br><br>&quot;Kilpatrick&nbsp;mixes&nbsp;loss&nbsp;and&nbsp;devastation&nbsp;with&nbsp;hope&nbsp;and&nbsp;a&nbsp;little&nbsp;bit&nbsp;of&nbsp;Southern&nbsp;charm.&nbsp;She&nbsp;will&nbsp;leave the&nbsp;reader&nbsp;laughing&nbsp;through&nbsp;tears.&nbsp;This&nbsp;is&nbsp;an&nbsp;incredible&nbsp;start&nbsp;from&nbsp;a&nbsp;promising&nbsp;storyteller.&quot; âEuro"&nbsp;<i>RT&nbsp;Book&nbsp;Reviews</i>,&nbsp;4.5&nbsp;Stars
