Recipe for Mr Christmas by Anni Rose

Recipe for Mr Christmas by Anni Rose is part of her Recipes for Love series, where all books can be read completely standalone.

After 40 years of blissful marriage, Susie is mourning the recent death of her husband and feeling a bit disoriented and not sure of what to do next. 

The usual round robin Christmas card arrives from the Bailey family, telling the world about their brilliant past year. Susie decides that next Christmas she'll have some amazing stories to tell too!

This starts off a year full of activities including pole-dancing, cooking lessons and some motorbiking. 

At a school reunion she meets up with Bob who lost his wife eighteen months ago and her drive spurs Rob on to also get active again. He even reunites with his old band members.

Not all gifts are wrapped up and put under the Christmas tree!

Feel good, somewhat Christmas themed romance story featuring mature characters (50+).

More Than Just Mum by Rebecca Smith

I'll happily pay for a 'mum breakdown service' Title: More Than Just Mum  (More Than Just Mum, Book 1) Author: Rebecca Smith In the reviews by others, this book is described as an "absolutely hilarious, laugh out loud novel of family chaos and reinvention". I wasn't that enamoured with it. Sure, it made me smile from time to time, but it wasn't incredible.  Hannah is the mum of Dylan, Scarlet and Benji. She's tired of being 'the mum of...'. and she's longingly looking back at a time when she was Hannah, not the MUM. She decides she needs to find a job she loves and earn a lot of money.  To earn lots of money she decides she should become a writer, because they apparently all earn a lot of dosh. She has a particular niche in mind...  "... might ask for advice about how to handle being forty-three years old, permanently strapped for cash and doing a job I hate while trying to deal with three exhausting kids. That’s the kind of breakdown ...

Dark Secrets on Dressmakers' Alley by Rosie Clarke

Dark Secrets on Dressmakers' Alley is the latest instalment in the gritty, historical saga series set in London's East End in 1924.  It builds on the first book in the series "Dangerous Times on Dressmakers' Alley" with many of the characters returning and coming further to life.  The girls are enjoying their work at Miss Susie's, the dressmaker's run by a former maid. Recently there has been a series of women being attached and robbed, even in broad daylight.  The Police seem too busy (and somewhat incompetent) so the men of the Dressmakers' Alley create a rota to keep an eye on the area and to keep their wives, girlfriends and sisters safe. The story felt a bit darker than the previous one, and some of the novelty from the first book was now just part of the back story (a Lady designing dresses, a former maid running a business, the Women's Movement, etc).    Dark Secrets on Dressmakers Alley by Rosie Clarke is available on 29 October 2024.
