The assignment seemed straightforward: track down the woman who had stolen the boy and return him to his father. But ChildFinders, Inc. had been duped, and Ben Underwood soon discovered that nothing about this case was as it seemed. He found Gina Wassel, the supposed kidnapper, easily enough, but once he did, all hell broke loose. Suddenly he had to untangle the truth from the lies, and it wasn't as easy as it should have been. Because Gina was everything Ben had ever dreamed of in a woman, and now he'd brought danger to her doorstep. With his heart–and her life–on the line, Ben found himself playing protector to Gina and the boy, a makeshift family he longed to make real.

‘A Cottage in the Country is a real feast for the senses. Get the coffee pot on, grab a pack of biscuits and let Maddie soothe your soul.’ – BestChickLit What do you do when your best friend has an affair with your husband of twenty-five years? Well, you pack your bags, grab half of the equity in the house you've both lovingly restored and run away to an idyllic little cottage in the country. Only, it’s not quite so idyllic when 1) Rustic charm sounds rather romantic, but the reality is something else … 2) The heavens decide to open on moving day and the rain just keeps on coming Maddie Brooks grits her teeth and hires the highly recommended 'man who can', ex-soldier, Lewis Hart. As he rips out the very shabby, and decidedly not-so-chic kitchen, reality sets in. Not only is he the most abrupt person she's ever met, but the man is a Neanderthal! As the flood waters rise, and the village is cut off, everything that could possibly go wrong, does. Hitting the big five-o is the final straw. No presents, family or friends—just infuriating Lewis, who can’t leave because the flood has now cut off his exit. How on earth is she going to get through this and put her life back together? Can Maddie Brooks become that ‘fifty-and-fabulous’ woman of her dreams?

Tales from a Young Vet: Part 2 of 3
Tales from a Young Vet: Part 2 of 3
Jo Hardy,Caro Handley
¥24.33
The funny, touching and entertaining story of how Jo Hardy, the star of BBC3’s Young Vets, gets to grips with animals big and small, friendly and not-at-all-happy, on the road to becoming a fully qualified vet. ‘Stand well clear. Keep your eyes on them. Oh, and make sure you have insurance.’ Not the most comforting words of wisdom, but probably the most useful for a trainee vet, Jo would say. From well-equipped surgeries to windswept hills and ramshackle barns, Jo has to be able to diagnose and treat any animal, at any time of the day or night. It’s not quite as easy as James Herriot made it seem. Jo’s final year of training saw her race from rectal examinations of cows to spine surgery on a Great Dane, and from treating an eventing horse with a heart problem to inserting a contraceptive implant into a monkey. And then there were the owners – the tough guy who sobbed when his cat was diagnosed with cancer, the woman who was convinced her dog was embarrassed by its stomach upset, and the farmer who loved his cows as much as anyone loves their pets. Gruelling days of animal treatments and visits combined with long nights of study and revision made Jo’s final year of training the most demanding and rewarding year of her life. Her book tells of the highs and lows, the pets that stole her heart, and the lifelong friends that she made – with two legs and four.
