Confessions of a First-Time Mum

A funny, heartwarming novel of motherhood and friendship

By: Poppy Dolan

‘Baby groups: a soft, cosy haven for the new mum, right? Um. No. Or is it just me?’ Stevie’s life has changed beyond recognition since having her first baby. She loves being a mum, but between the isolation and being vomited on five times a day, she really wishes she had someone to talk to. With husband Ted working hard to keep the family afloat, Stevie doesn’t want to burden him with her feelings. Turning to the internet, Stevie starts the anonymous First-Time Mum blog and blasts the rose-tinted glasses of parenthood right off her readers. In the real world, Stevie meets the formidable Nelle and gorgeous Will, along with their own little treasures, and starts to realise that being a ‘perfect mum’ isn’t everything. But when the secret blog goes viral, Stevie must make some tough choices about who she wants to be, and whether she’s ready for the world to know the truth... A perfect laugh-out-loud read for fans of Gill Sims, Fiona Gibson and Milly Johnson. Praise for Confessions of a First-Time Mum: ‘The story and the writing was hilarious, but the sentiment within it was awfully, wonderfully true’ Lilac Mills, author of Love in the City by the Sea ‘A fun, laugh out loud book also with lots of tender moments. Perfect for new mums, old mums and no mums! Everyone can enjoy this book! Would definitely recommend!’ Stardust Book Reviews ‘A fantastic, relatable read for anyone who has children of their own. Hell, even if I didn't have a child, I am sure I still would have loved reading about Stevie’ The Writing Garnet ‘Where the baby wipes was this book when my daughter was born?!’ The Writing Garnet

So when greedy property developers try to get their hands on it, Connie hatches a plan to save the hall, one bonkers enough that it just might work.

I finished it with a huge grin on my face and an urge to dust off my sewing kit and create my own string of feel-good pennants.’ Cressida McLaughlin ‘Gorgeously warm and funny, The Bluebell Bunting Society is Poppy Dolan at her finest. With characters to love and a whole lot of sweet treats along the way, this is the cosiest, most charming and feel-good book I’ve read all year.’ Victoria Fox ‘Poppy Dolan is simply unputdownable.’ Claudia Carroll

There's More To Life Than Cupcakes

A heart-warming and hilarious must-read

By: Poppy Dolan

A funny, feel-good novel about baking, relationships and babies, perfect for fans of Sue Watson and Mhairi McFarlane. For Ellie, life is good. Her husband, Pete, is fantastic, she has great friends and an okay job at a food magazine. But according to the rest of the world there’s one thing missing: a baby. Ellie knows Pete would make a brilliant dad and his not-so-subtle hints confirm he is keen to become one. For Ellie it’s more complicated. Babies are cute and squishy and lovely. They also mean giving up boozy nights, Sunday lie ins and any chance of kicking her career into gear. In search of a distraction, Ellie joins a baking class where she meets Joe – handsome, single and a dab hand with a whisk. But when a bit of harmless flirting causes big problems for Ellie she needs to decide where her heart really lies. Soon she discovers there’s no such thing as a perfect recipe for life... ‘Poppy Dolan is simply unputdownable.’ Claudia Carroll ‘Poppy Dolan's fabulous take on family, friendships and finding the right time is a rival to even the best chocolate brownie.

The Woolly Hat Knitting Club

By: Poppy Dolan

In this “wonderfully warm . . . laugh-out-loud funny” romantic comedy, a London career woman finds love and happiness at her family’s village knitting shop (Cressida McLaughlin, author of the Cornish Cream Tea series). When Dee Blackthorn’s brother breaks both wrists, he’s in need of a helping hand—or two—with the knitting shop he owns. Luckily, Dee has all the time in the world to help out—she’s just been unceremoniously fired from her demanding job amidst scandalous office rumors she’s certain her hot-shot nemesis, Ben, is behind . . . When Dee bumps into Becky, an old friend who is a new mum to a premature baby, Dee gets the brilliant idea to use her new role at her brother’s shop to enlist the knitting community to make tiny woolly hats to keep the little one warm. But when Dee’s good intentions backfire, she risks losing her friends and family. On top of that, Ben turns up, denying involvement in Dee’s sacking. It seems her office rival might just be the hero she needs right about now. “The book made me want to take up knitting and snuggle down with my loved ones.” —Rosie Blake, author of The Hygge Holiday “Relatable and vivid characters. . . . Clever, heartfelt, witty, romantic.” —Kirsty Greenwood, author of Big Sexy Love “Simply unputdownable.” —Claudia Carroll, author of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow? “The feel-good book of the year.” —Vanessa Greene, author of The Vintage Teacup Club
