"'bloody good read' New Woman 'Top ten book...feel-good escapism' Heat 'Zoe Barnes writes wonderfully escapist novels, firmly based in reality' Express"
Product Description
Lorna has everything she's ever wanted. And then one day, her beloved husband Ed dies - leaving her widowed and pregnant at 29. Eighteen months later, Lorna misses Ed as much as ever, but knows she must get out and make a new life for herself and her kids. When her mum and dad suddenly find themselves desperate for somewhere to live, what could be more natural than for them to come and live with Lorna? It'll be a great opportunity for her to go back to her job as a midwife, while they get to know their grandchildren. But that's before the mishaps, the arguments over childcare, or the rows that break out when Lorna announces that she's met a hunky doctor and is ready to start dating again.

"Be My Baby" is the second book that I have read by Zoe Barnes and once again it was pretty good. Ms. Barnes gives characters that are really problems about life and love. Can't wait to read more.

I'd never read any of Zoe Barnes's novels before picking up this one, but I was searching for the genre of female fiction which includes how to cope as a working mother. This book, set in Barnes's native Cheltenham, is the story of Lorna, a midwife before the birth of her children and the ensuing chain of events which mark her return to full time work.
The characters are believable and well formed, especially Lorna's best friend, the-big-hearted-but-unlucky-in-love Carmen and there's a fair sprinkling of human interest sub-plots to keep the reader hooked. In short, an excellent book and a perfect book to enliven any commute or place on the bedside table.
