Anna has a steady job, a great social life and a recently deceased relationship with unreconstructed hippy Nic. She has never changed a nappy or kissed a baby in her life, and that's the way she intends to keep things. Until Laura, her best friend, announces she's pregnant, Nic discovers he has a teenage son from a long ago relationship, and Anna falls truly, madly, deeply in love. But there's a hitch. Her new Mr Wonderful, Michael, comes complete with a baby daughter.

Does Anna really want a baby in her life? As broken nights, toys on the floor, and the carnage of children's parties take their toll, she begins to wonder. Then Fiona - blonde, beautiful and, most worryingly, mother of the baby - reappears on the scene...

“A fresh, funny take on the chick-lit novel” – Hello!

“A delightful debut” – Daily Express

 “Feel-good romance” – Marie Claire

 “A funny and touching novel about motherhood, romance and responsibility” – Woman’s Own

What readers thought: 

“You have a wonderful sense of humour - witty - slightly sarcastic - just

brilliant. Streets ahead of so many of the allegedly amusing girlie novels

I've read recently.” 

“It was such a pleasure to simply enjoy a book from start to finish, and to laugh out loud, and CARE. I loved it!”

“A very funny, quirky, well-written book with insights into human behaviour far beyond chick lit.”
