Summary

Seven powerful, gripping short stories from bestselling author, Amanda Prowse. If you have not discovered Amanda Prowse yet you are in for a real treat... Full of incident and real characters' Rascals of London Collection includes: Something Quite Beautiful, The Game, Ten Pound Ticket, Imogen's Baby, Miss Potterton's Birthday Tea, A Christmas Wish and Mr Portobollo's Morning Paper.

Susie has just arrived in Australia. She is clutching a newborn baby, but she has no wedding ring on her left hand. With no money, and no hope, how can she turn her life around? Gemma Peters, a happy-go-lucky teenager has disappeared without trace. Where has she gone? Why has she been lying to her family? And, most importantly, will she ever come home?

Twenty-four-year-old Imogen longs for a baby. She knows it's hard to raise a child alone, but Imogen is also blind. Can she overcome life's challenges and have the baby she longs for?

Funny, heart-warming and moving, these seven short stories are the perfect excuse for a bit of me-time.

Her books have been translated into a dozen languages and she regularly tops book charts all over the world. Remaining true to her ethos, Amanda writes stories of ordinary women and their families who find their strength, courage and love tested in ways they never imagined. The most prolific female contemporary fiction writer in the UK, with a legion of loyal readers, she goes from strength to strength.

A real bonus.

So thrilled to realise that there was one story after another, as I always feel so disappointed whenI reach the end of one of Amanda’s books. Every one was so true to life and so beautifully narrated by Amanda.
