'Sometimes, a book can be such a brilliant idea you can't believe no one has done it before! Stepmothers, stepfathers, stepchildren: all will find amusement and comfort in its pages.' Nigella Lawson 'This funny, touching novel by Red's editor is The First Wives Club meets Sex And The City - with stepchildren! Fast paced and unexpectedly moving.' Red 'The narrative is well thought out with a great plot and likeable characters. Writing from the point of view of the Wicked Stepmother makes for an interesting and different read.' Daily Mail 'In this feisty female-support fiction, each of her group of five women - Eve, Clare, Mel, Mandy and Chloe - has her own way of managing the complexities of 21st-century family life - living with the ghosts of dead wives, looking after the little ones, and nursing the big ones' egos.' Good Housekeeping 'This hilarious novel addresses an inevitable question for step-parents: what if you din't get on with your partner's children?' Hot Stars (OK!) 'A great read with characters you can sympathise with.' Woman 'Her cracking novel is a stylish tale about what to do when you love him but don't love his kids. Rather cleverly she lays the old myth of the wicked stepmother to rest, or so we hope. Either way it's a super-sassy read.' The Lady 'Baker charts the lives of four very different women, each embroiled in a family crisis, offering us a compelling, honest and moving view of motherhood, in all forms' Psychologies
