    Book News: The Step-Mothers Support Group by Sam Baker

    Posted on Tuesday, April 28th, 2009 by Leah

    sambakerstepmothersupportgroupSam Baker, editor of Red magazine and author of Fashion Victim and This Year’s Model, has a new novel out on 20th August (UK) called The Step Mothers-Support Group. The synopsis for the novel reads:

    You can’t choose your family - but you can choose your friends…A sensational new novel about female friendship. Eve has never imagined herself as a stepmother. But when she falls in love with Ian, he comes with a ready-made family of three children. And, to make matters worse, he’s a widower. The ghost of his glamorous and well known wife haunts them. Clare, a teacher and single mother, is Eve’s best friend. She is the only person Eve can talk to about how to win round three hostile children. But despite Clare’s years of practice with her own teenage daughter, it’s her younger sister Chloe who provides the truly sympathetic ear. Mel is the high achiever, sent along to Eve’s so-called ‘support group’ by a colleague. Her new boyfriend has a ten-year-old daughter and she knows that if the relationship is going anywhere, she is going to have to meet her. And Mandy is the stay-at-home mum, whose relationship comes with stepchildren, and who wants more than anything to stitch together a new family life for herself and her kids. As a cup of coffee turns to a bottle of wine and the get-togethers become a regular fixture, the women share their love lives, their ambitions - and their feelings about their new families. But their friendship is tested when they are forced to confront new futures as well as unwelcome figures from the past!

    It sounds an interesting read.

    Book News: Return to Sender by Zoe Barnes

    Posted on Tuesday, April 28th, 2009 by Chloe

    zoebarnesreturntosenderWell, we’re nearly in May already and that means a whole new set of books being released! One that I am looking forward to is the new release from chick-lit author Zoe Barnes, called Return to Sender. It’s due for publication on May 7th, so look out for it in the shops. Here’s the synopsis:

    “The double christening of her sisters’ two kids gets Holly Bennett thinking. She would seriously love to have a baby one day, but for the first time in ages being adopted has become a stumbling block for her. Does she want to start a family of her own when she doesn’t even know who she really is or where she’s come from?

    With an on-off boyfriend who she’s swiftly falling out of lust with, Holly decides to move back to her home town to be near her adoptive family. Who knows, it may be the change she needs to get her life back on track - and the place to be if she wants to begin tracing her roots.

    But these roots prove trickier to trace than Holly has expected. That is, until she hires her own oh-so-sexy private investigator to take charge… “

    I’ve read a lot of Zoe Barnes’ previous books, and they’ve all been really good, so hopefully this will live up to expectation!
