Mum’s the word…
When journalist Nina fills in a lonely hearts ad, she doesn’t expect it to lead to an unplanned baby, gossipy coffee mornings and a dull-as-ditchwater partner.
Trapped at home with nappy-changing L plates, she craves a little glamour and the odd free lunch. And that’s when her fashion editor friend spots her new talent – and baby Ben’s career as a model is launched.
Nina is going to tell her partner – but the time is never quite right. And exposure of her secret is only photograph assignment away…
A sparkling, original, charming debut from a talented new voice which will appeal to everyone who likes Allison Pearson, India Knight and John O’Farrell.
