    December Releases

    Posted on Tuesday, December 1st, 2009 by Leah

    Just two book releases in December but I can’t wait for the release of The Dating Detox as it sounds fab!

    Nicci Gerrard - The Winter House - 3rd Decembernicci gerrard the winter house

    When Marnie receives a phone call that summons her to the side of a once-beloved friend, she is wrenched from her orderly London life and sent back into a past from which she has fled but never escaped. Ralph, Marnie and Oliver once knew each other well and are still inextricably bound by ties of love and betrayal.

    Now they meet again in Ralph’s secluded cottage in the Scottish highlands, to spend the precious days that Ralph has left with each other. As they reminisce, Marnie is taken back to the summer years ago when everything changed between them and heartbreak and desire broke up their little group. Will Ralph have the chance to say what needs to be said before it’s too late? And can they put the devastating events of twenty years ago to rest and rekindle the intimacy they once shared?

    Gemma Burgess - The Dating Detox - 24th DecemberThe Dating Detox by Gemma Burgess

    If you can’t date anyone nice, don’t date anyone at all. Dating is a dangerous sport. So after her sixth successive failed relationship, romantically-challenged 20-something Sass decides she’s had enough. The Dating Sabbatical is born. No men, no break-ups, no problem. The result? Her life – up till now joyfully/traumatically occupied with the Holy Trinity of dates, clothes and vodka – suddenly goes from bumpy to smooth.

    Chastity rocks. No wonder nuns are always singing. Everything seems to fall at her feet. Especially men. Will Sass break the rules before the three-month Dating Sabbatical is up? Why does fate keep throwing her in the path of the irritatingly amusing Jake? Will she ever roll the dice and play again? Or is a love-free life too good to risk losing?

    Look out for the first three chapters of The Dating Detox, which we’ll be posting soon!

    December Releases from Little Black Dress

    Posted on Monday, November 30th, 2009 by Leah

    Just the two releases from Little Black Dress in December. I love the sound of A Date In Your Diary and the cover is fab.

    Jules Stanbridge - A Date In Your Diary - 10th December jules stanbridge a date in your diary

    Harriet Peel knows what’s hot and what’s definitely not. As the ‘what’s on’ writer for her local magazine, it’s her job. Her own social life, however, is teetering on the verge of non-existence. With the last of her friends tying the knot and the threat of being replaced at work by some annoying London ‘it’ girl, it’s time for drastic action.

    Determined to find the ideal partner to take to the wedding, Harriet decides to register on a dating website. And when the resulting liaisons turn into experiences worth writing about, she suddenly finds herself the unwitting star of a hugely popular new column. Will her newly acquired social status as a minor celebrity help in her quest or is she destined to go to the wedding alone… again?

    Suzanne MacPherson - Talk of the Town - 24th Decembersuzanne macpherson talk of the town

    Kelly Atwood thought she’d found Mr Right, so when she discovers her new husband has a heavy-duty sideline in drug smuggling on her wedding day, she doesn’t think twice about punching him in the nose and fleeing to the small town of Paradise, Washington, where she immediately gets gorgeous upright attorney and local hero Sam Grayson feeling hot under his stiff collar.

    Unfortunately, the one thing Kelly hasn’t realised is that she inadvertently took off with a suitcase stuffed full of money that isn’t hers, and now there are some decidedly dodgy characters hot on her stiletto heels, determined to get it back… Sizzling hot passion and dangerous pursuits can only mean one thing – there’s going to be big trouble in Paradise.
