Black Swan.

When Nell was a student, she and Patrick were a serious item. They were inseparable, and she really thought he was The One. But then Alex came along - the safer, more restful option - and thanks to her over-controlling mother, she opted for him instead. But now, Alex has left her to live in New York with a younger, blonder woman. Escaping to the Caribbean for a recuperative holiday, she is mugged at the airport and her bag is stolen. It’s crisis time – and she makes two decisions: First – she will take lessons in self-defense. Second – she will try and find Patrick again. Is she trying to put the past behind her...or setting out to ruin her future?

The Look of Love

Other People's Husbands

Sara's mother told her that she shouldn’t marry Conrad, that the 25-year age gap between them would be their downfall. Conrad, a famous painter, has decided that it would be good to die before he gets seriously old, and so spends his time sorting out his chaotic life. Meanwhile Sarawhen not teaching art at a local collegefinds that she has plenty of male company in the form of other people’s husbands, all of whom are just good friends to her. But there’s one man that she somehow never gets around to mentioning to Conrad, and suddenly her little secret begins to impact the rest of her life.

Unchained Melanie

A summer holiday in Cornwall is full of surprises.     Every July, the lucky owners of Cornish holiday homes set off for their annual break. They close up their desirable semis in smartish London suburbs -- having turned off the Aga and turned on the burglar alarm -- and look forward to a carefree, restful, somehow more fulfilling summer.     Clare is more than usually ready for her holiday. Her daughter, Miranda, is hitting adolescence bigtime, and her husband Jack is harbouring unsettling thoughts of a change in lifestyle. No wonder that Clare is contemplating a bit of extra-marital adventure, possibly with Eliot, the successful, heavy-drinking author in the adjoining holiday property.     Unexpected disasters occur, revelations are made and, as the summer ends, real life will never be quite the same again.
