An imperfect mother of the bride attempts to navigate her daughter's wedding in this funny, touching, hopeful gem of a novel. The happily ever after is only part of the story... A funny, touching, hopeful gem about love, marriage and second chances. It's the day before her daughter's wedding and things An imperfect mother of the bride attempts to navigate her daughter's wedding in this funny, touching, hopeful gem of a novel. The happily ever after is only part of the story... A funny, touching, hopeful gem about love, marriage and second chances. It's the day before her daughter's wedding and things are not going well for Gail Baines. First thing, she loses her job - or quits, depending who you ask. Then her ex-husband Max turns up at her door expecting to stay for the festivities. He doesn't even have a suit. Instead, he's brought memories, a shared sense of humour - and a cat looking for a new home. Just as Gail is wondering what's next, their daughter Debbie discovers her groom has been keeping a secret... As the big day dawns, the exes just can't agree on what's best for Debbie. Gail is seriously worried, while Max seems more concerned with whether to opt for the salmon or prime rib at the reception, if they make it that far. The day after the wedding, Gail and Max prepare to go their separate ways again. But all the questions about the future of the happy couple have stirred up the past for Gail. Because 'happy' takes many forms, and sometimes the younger generation has much to teach the older about secrets, acceptance and taking the rough with the smooth.  STAFF PICK A succinct expose of a family wedding - old love, new love, forgiveness and second chances. I was hooked from start to finish! Anne. ...Show more

Now divorced, she watches her ex play happy families with another woman. There's Bill - her stepdad - who moved in after Lila's mum died. He's kind, old-fashioned and loves lentils just a little too much. Celie, Lila's eldest, hates school. Hates it so much she's stopped going. Her mother's fine with that - because she doesn't know yet. Violet is nine and sings age-inappropriate rap songs, laughs at fart jokes and Lila dearly hopes she'll never, ever change. Lastly, there's Truant the dog. He's just taken a bite out of the American actor who's suddenly landed on the Kennedy's doorstep.

Because Gene's presence changes things in unexpected ways. Soon the girls discover a kindred spirit in a man always chasing life's joys. Bill even loosens up. And Lila finds herself, astonishingly, dating.Something is happening to the Kennedy household - but what is it?And will it break, or save their family?   Praise for Someone Else's Shoes: 'Giddily joyful.

The enigmatic founder and CEO, Luna Peters, takes a liking to Marnie, and as the two grow closer Marnie becomes intoxicated by the life that Luna, and rytual, can offer her. But all is not what it seems at rytual. Luna has a cult-like hold over the all-female staff, and that's not to mention what happens at their weekly Friday Night Drinks. As Marnie edges closer to the darkness at the centre of rytual's millennial pink facade, cracks begin to show. Luna is hiding something, but will Marnie uncover the truth - and the role Luna has cast her in - before it's too late? Both a darkly funny deconstruction of the beauty industry and a gripping examination of identity, beauty and desire, Rytual asks the question- what if your favourite cult beauty brand ... was actually a cult? ...Show more
