 I So Did Not! The totally secret diaries of Danni Pierce and Aaron Phillips

Two diaries, two thirteen year olds. They each think the other hates them. (Or loves them.) And sometimes they're right. (Or wrong.)  Will they ever get it together?

Chapter 1: Why Father Chrimbo is Pants                                                                                      Mum has gone batty bonkers.  What sort of present is this? If I wanted a diary I'd have said, 'Mum can I have a diary' instead of what I did say which was, 'I'd like lip gloss in SugarBabe and the nail varnish that goes with it and check it's not Candyfloss because they look the same and without your glasses on you might not notice.'  She won't wear her glasses when she goes out because she thinks they make her look old, and she does look old but it's got nothing to do with her glasses.

Revenge of the Ten Pound Poms

In the 1950’s almost a million British people rushed to swap miserable post war Britain for a life of warmth and opportunities in Australia. But for Rose, the escape would be far worse than anything she had left behind.

Immaculate Misconceptions (Simon & Schuster £6.99)

When Ellie was fourteen, she wrote a pamphlet for her friends called, 'Having Sex: an instruction manual'. Next to the diagram of a matchstick man and woman lying face to face was the caption: Insert and repeat as necessry.

Now that she's 38, and married with two children, sex is no laughing matter and as she lies in hospital recovering from an operation she reflects that faking orgasms is just one more chore on a par with ironing and PTA meetings.  She longs for escape from it all, and the eighteen year old son of the woman in the next bed could be just what she's looking for...

Premature Infatuation (Simon & Schuster £6.99)

'Corinne is fond of saying that starting a new job is like making love with someone new: exciting, stimulating, and you dont know what it might lead to.  Personally I can't see the similarity. At work you  have to suck up to the boss, keep your head down and just get on with the job in hand.  But when you make love... oh well, she may have a point.' 

When Gemma takes a job as a temp, she finds that while the job may be temporary, the repercussions of the relationships she makes there are anything but.

Reading Between the Lies (Simon & Schuster £6.99)

When Carol bumps into childhood friend Jilly one day she is so pleased to see her she's tempted to stab her with a coathanger.  But gradually she finds herself drawn into Jilly's web in ways that are far worse than she could have imagined.
