|title=A Change For The Better
|rating=4
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=
Jo Farrell had spent all her life caring for other people. After she lost her alcoholic husband and her demanding, hypochondriac mother she had time for herself, but when she looked in the mirror she wasn't particularly impressed by what she saw. The middle-aged, slightly plump woman with grey curls reminded her of her mother and the clothes she was wearing did little to help either. It was something odd which helped her to change. The very scruffy man from downstairs (the sort you would cross the road to avoid) came to borrow a newspaper and somehow they got talking about what needed to be done to change her life.

|title=The Bridesmaid Pact
|rating=5
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=I recently read [[Last Christmas by Julia Williams]] and enjoyed it so much that I was determined to read more by this fabulous author. The opportunity presented itself in the shape of 'The Bridesmaid Pact', a truly wonderful book that not only met but also exceeded all my expectations. In fact it was so good that I read the last 200 pages in just one day, totally ignoring my family whilst doing so.

|title=The Liberation of Alice Love
|rating=4.5
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=You can just picture Alice Love standing before the panel on Britain's Got Talent.
'And what do you do?' they like to ask.<br>
'I work in the film industry...'<br>
'Oooh, really?'<br>
'...as a lawyer.'<br>
'Oh.'
Like all those accountants they're always showing, you can imagine that Alice too would receive a rather luke-warm welcome on the show. And Alice would concur that her job isn't all that glam, even if her industry itself is a bit swish. But it's an appropriate job for her, since Alice is very sensible and by-the-book. She's certainly not the type of person to go overdrawn, or run into any kind of trouble financially, so when her card is declined one day she's pretty sure it's just a computer error.

|title=Confetti Confidential
|rating=4
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=''Confetti Confidential'' is the third book in the Isabel series, but the first one I've read. Even without that grand claim on the front, you couldn't help but draw comparisons between Kinsella's series and this one from the very first page. The writing style is virtually identical – to the point where you do actually wonder if this is just a pseudonym – and while the chatty, chummy, conversational approach is not for everyone, if it's the sort of thing you like then this is the sort of book you'll love.
