Life's Unexpected Adventures Anthology
Volume One
No Strings Attached
Wedding invitations are supposed to bring a smile to your face, with thoughts
of a happy occasion that two people would be joining in Holy matrimony,
publicly declaring their love for each other. However, for Laura Lee, it was
just confirmation that at thirty-three, she had spent all her time and efforts
on her career and is still single.
After finding out that her ex will be attending the same
wedding, Laura Lee has three days to find herself a date. In desperation, she
calls on the help of her best friend Lisa, the who’s who of Nottingham’s
eligible bachelors.
Discovering that Nottingham’s most rich and handsome men
find her icy, Laura has to take her only option, the man she most despises, her
work colleague, Adam Ford.
Learner Mum
Polly Wilkins is a successful freelance journalist slash writer. She has been
living with her partner Steve in what her parents call sin for the last eight
years. But, to her parent’s disappointment, there are no signs of wedding bells
or the patter of tiny feet on the horizon. Why? Because Polly, is not in the
least bit maternal. Can this all change after Polly and Steve have a torrid
weekend looking after her nephew? Or will Polly stick to her guns and loose
Steve forever?
Unexpected Blind Date
If any of Grace Worthing’s friends dared to suggest she should go on a blind
date, her answer would have been, “Blind dates are so tacky; they are
definitely for the desperate.” She was so over men! After her fifth Sex on the
Beach cocktail, she told friends she would never have sex again, let alone have
sex on a beach. Then, somewhere between her second and third tequila slammer,
Grace found herself, agreeing to meet Adrian. Little did she know how
interesting and unexpected her blind date would be.
Angel of Kindness
Megan Shepard was not looking forward to Christmas. Now divorced, all she had
to look forward to was spending Christmas in Derbyshire, with her sixty four
year old, bisexual, hippie mother, and a scrawny little sapling tree,
overdressed with cheap decorations from the pound shop. However, her friends
had other ideas, like taking her to Pinkie’s Night Club, their old stomping
ground as teenagers. This brought back memories of rah-rah skirts, fishnets,
and legwarmers dancing to Madonna, until the DJ played The Power of Love,
whereupon Richie King would take her hand and lead her to the dance floor.
Seeing Richie leaning against the bar in his unforgettable Danny Zucko pose,
she knows the right thing to do would be to walk in the opposite direction, yet
finds herself walking straight to him, and taking the advice of her
unconventional mother. Swept off her feet to the winter wonderland of
Manchester’s Christmas Market, romantic walks in the snow of the Derbyshire
Peak District, and fireside dinners, she has to wonder if Richie really
changed, or has he something to hide?

Zoe North
Zoe North walked down the aisle, aware that all eyes were on her. She knew she
should be savouring this moment, yet all she could focus on was the man at the
altar the man that, in a few minutes from now, would be promising to spend the
rest of his life with her. As the vicar starts the wedding ceremony, Zoe
recalls her turbulent, two-year relationship with Dale Kennedy, literally,
falling head over heels but not in love, when they first meet.

bargained for. An ultimatum that could change Zoe’s life forever and a
honeymoon she will never forget.

expecting the inevitable.
Coming Home for Christmas
After her husband’s death, Sophie and her young daughter return to her family
in Derbyshire. The Ferguson’s seem like a perfect family until you scratch the
surface. With so many emotional baggage, and only nine weeks to Christmas, can
Sophie bring them altogether for the perfect Christmas she dreams of?
Thomas, the gorgeous, moody decorator, is a man with his own
agenda that doesn't seem to include Sophie. Even in his paint-smeared tee shirt,
faded jeans and scuffed boots, he is immodestly masculine, handsome and
sizzling hot. But when his eyes reflect the pain she knows so well, Sophie
cannot help but wonder if there is another side to the cold exterior.
Thomas finds his heart opening to this beautiful, wounded
woman from his past. A passion smoulders as they work together in the months
before Christmas. But he has been hurt before and hesitates to stoke the fire
between them.
Will the magic of the holidays heal a family and bring two
lost souls together?
