|title=Ferney
|rating=5
|genre=Historical Fiction
|summary=History lecturer Michael Martin thought that the chance of love and marriage had passed him by. Then Gally, a history nut and lecture gate crasher, attended one of his lectures and dared to contradict him. Contradiction led to courtship and the marriage that had previously seemed so elusive but despite their love and accompanying emotional security, Gally has a dark subconscious that haunts her. She's unsettled by repeating nightmares and, worse, night terrors that can't be explained by counsellors' logic. However when Mike and Gally find their (or rather, Gally's) ideal home in the shape of a derelict cottage in the Somerset village of Penselwood, Gally's nightmares are augmented by a strong feeling of déjà vu. Meanwhile the Martins seem to have developed a benevolent stalker in the shape of aged local Ferney Miller. Mike considers him a bit of a pain while for Gally he represents something else entirely; something that she can't explain nor understand but will become a threat to her marital happiness and Michael's peace of mind.

|summary=Romy doesn’t have a clue who the father of her baby son, Luke, is. But it’s not like she’s an über-slut who sleeps around: in her defence his conception was a one off thing, it was dark (they were in a cupboard) and the baby daddy had on a Darth Vader mask (it was a Halloween party). That was a year ago, and now Romy’s wondering whether she should renew her efforts to find the mystery man, for Luke’s sake as much as anything. As the book starts she is throwing her own Halloween party, hoping to jog some memories as she recreates last year’s (not in every way of course…she’s far from ready for baby number 2).

|title=Instructions For Bringing Up Scarlett
|rating=3.5
|genre=Women's Fiction
|summary=A lot of adults will be familiar with the scenario where a close friend ventures the thought 'if anything happened to us would you look after the children?' and there will be few who do other than give assurances that of course they would. There's an easy assumption that it was unlikely to come about - and it would seem churlish to refuse someone that reassurance. Alice gave her best friend Virginia that assurance, but when the unthinkable happened she was a travel guide writer, used to going hither and thither at a moment's notice. Scarlett was eleven years old and she didn't come with a user's manual.
