Hush Hush

Widowed a year ago, thirtysomething Angela has retreated into her shell, reluctant to dip a toe back in the job market let alone the dating game. Between them, her bossy mum and her best friend gently nudge Angela back to life, persuading her to find a job and even try a solo holiday which ends with a luggage mix-up and an encounter with a rugged Irishman called Conor. Back home, Angela resolves to take her new romance slowly, particularly as Conors (non-holiday) baggage includes the original child from hell and a temperamental ex-wife with Pre-Raphaelite hair. Since Angelas never liked winging it, is a future with Conor too uncertain to contemplate? But as shes about to discover, her old life was far less secure than she thought. And the past wont let go until she confronts its long-buried secret.
