WILDE ABOUT THE GIRL BY LOUISE PENTLAND
After the year from hell, Robin Wilde has bounced back, her love life is ticking along nicely, and she’s finding that being a single mother is actually quite fun. She’s more than ready for whatever life throws at her and when an exciting opportunity at work arises, Robin excitedly steps up, ready to show everyone exactly what she’s made of.
But her best friend Lacey is struggling to conceive and coping with heartbreak, and her daughter Lyla is cultivating an attitude from someone at school. If that wasn’t enough she’s worried about Aunt Kath. Is that bubbly joyous, veneer really just a mask for loneliness?
When push comes to shove can Robin definitely trust the people she must depend on in her fabulous new role?
Life is about to throw a curve ball at Robin Wilde, and she’ll have to make some tough decisions if she’s to take care of those she loves and come out on top.

THE SECRETS OF PRIMROSE SQUARE BY CLAUDIA CARROLL
No one really knows what goes on behind closed doors do they?
It’s late at night and the rain is pouring down on Dublin city streets.
In one quiet house a mother grieves for her dead child. She takes to standing outside the home of the teenage boy she believes responsible.
In a kitchen on the same square, a girl waits anxiously for her mum to come home. She knows exactly where she is, but she knows she cannot reach her.
A few doors down, and a widow sits alone in her room. She has just delivered a bombshell to her family during dinner and her life is about to change forever.
And an aspiring theatre director has just moved in to a flat across the street. Her landlord is absent, but there are already things about him that don’t quite add up . . .
