Recently retired, Denny Lambert is finding life just a little bit…well, dull. So when her stepsister Juliette announces she’s getting married – again! – and invites Denny on a hen do with the Old Ducks, Denny really can’t say no.

Denny knows something about the Old Ducks and their wild exploits, but she’s just glad to be somewhere hot and sunny and away from her grey life back in the UK. She’s definitely not going to be pulled into any Old Duck mayhem….

But when they arrive at their beautiful Mallorcan villa, Denny is in for a shock. Because right next door is the man who once broke her heart – Bruno Browning. Now with the Old Ducks and an old flame to contend with, Denny’s life suddenly feels anything but dull!

But if she’s learnt one thing from her time with the Old Ducks it’s that life is for living…and that’s exactly what Denny is finally going to do!

Because it's never too late for even the newest Old Duck to learn new tricks...

Perfect for fans of Judy Leigh and Dee Macdonald.

Reviews for The Old Ducks' Hen Do

[Linda · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Once again this author has put a smile on my face from the antics of her characters.

[Karen Chandler · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I really enjoyed this book as it definitely breaks the myth that old people are cranky, stubborn, bumps on a log. They travel, have great friendships, and find love. New beginnings after 60+.
