What's wrong with a little bit of faking it? After Josie Jewell got dumped by her ex through a note on the fridge, she hasn't let herself get close to anyone. But when she meets Cameron at a Halloween party, who turns up in the same Ghostbusters costume as her, it's virtually impossible to stay away. Cameron, a curly haired video-games designer with dazzling blue eyes, the sexiest dimples and the same encyclopaedic knowledge of movies as Josie, seems too good to be true. And maybe he is... Because there's one teeny tiny problem as Josie falls madly in love. Cameron has no idea that Josie lives at home with her exporn star parents and their dog Dave, or the minor detail that she works for their sex toy empire. After her ex broke up with her because of the family business, Josie decides to tell a little white lie. But it's just a matter of time until the truth comes out. When it does, will Cameron end things, leaving Josie with only Dave the dog for company? And what if she's not the only one who's keeping secrets? So funny it should come with a warning Don't read while eating/drinking/in public - embarrassment will ensue. The perfect romantic comedy for anyone whose love life is more extinct than dinosaurs, and for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Lindsey Kelk and Emily Henry.

It's normal to prefer getting a filling at the dentist to spending time with your husband, right?I thought I was sorted on the life front. I was a heart surgeon with a loving partner and two gorgeous little girls. Except my husband's version of 'loving' is lying, cheating and sleeping his way around London. Which means I definitely deserve a refund.Unfortunately, moving on isn't that simple. Just because I know how to operate on a heart doesn't mean I know how to fix my broken one. Plus, I lost the receipt for him years ago so I'm definitely getting short changed.But now I'm single, am I ready to mingle? There are a few minor issues: The last time I went on a date double denim was in fashion and my eyebrows were horrendously overplucked. Men wear stupidly skinny jeans now. I don't know how to use dating apps but at least I don't have to get changed out of my pyjamas. Sometimes the most promising thing you have in common with a guy is a shared love of prawns. I don't know whether to open a date with 'hi' or 'hello' or 'hey' and once I ended up saying 'howdy'. Everything happens for a reason, they say. There's plenty more fish in the sea. But what happens when everything falls apart and you haven't got a clue how to go fishing? An absolutely hilarious and utterly relatable tale for anyone who has ever survived a nightmare relationship, felt a little lonely or nursed a broken heart with wine and carbs.

It's normal to wish that your baby came with a snooze button, right?When I got pregnant, Will and I didn't have a clue what we were signing up for.

(In case you're wondering, whale music doesn't work.)2) If you make the mistake of going to a nightclub you'll nod off, drool, and be woken up by an angry bouncer.3) You'll spend more time spooning your child's cuddly donkey than your own boyfriend.4) Communication with your other half will be via post-it notes on the fridge, mainly telling him to buy more milk.5) Sex is something that happened in another dimension. But even if I feel like I'm waiting for my motherhood powers to come in the post, at least I've got Will. Our old life - festivals, sambuca shots, an actual sex life - might be a distant memory, but we can get through anything together, can't we?
