Half A World Away, published by The Dome Press in April 2018, is set in East Berlin in 1987, two years before the fall of the Berlin Wall. "A stunning book: tender, chilling, original and uplifting" - author Miranda Dickinson.

Sue is the author of Holby City: Behind the Screen - the first ever official tie-in book for the BBC TV series. Authorised by the BBC, it's based on interviews with all of the current cast and many of the people working behind the scenes, and lifts the lid on the journey of the show from script to screen.

Sue's first book, Two's Company, was published in the UK, Japan and France and was optioned for film by Warner Bros. It was followed by Time After Time, True Colours and Better Than The Real Thing.

When not writing books and playing the flute badly, Sue can be found slumped on the nearest sofa watching TV and blogging about it for the website www.pauseliveaction.com

Remember the 80s? The batwing jumpers, the puffball skirts, the dragged-through-a-hedge-backwards hair? Cass Thomson does - from the heavy eyeliner to the hits of Spandau Ballet and Duran Duran, it all feels like yesterday...

Cass is intrigued and a little frightened when she receives an invitation to a school reunion. If she goes, there's a possibility that she'll meet Gideon Harker, the boy she adored from the age of 13 with the desperate intensity of first love. From his bleach-blond hair to his punk boots, Gideon was her ideal man, and she's never met anyone to match him, not even now she's running a minor stately home and perfectly content with her sports journalist boyfriend Greg.

It's dangerous to go back and see what might have been: what if Gideon is no longer the romantic, soul-searching, green-eyed charmer she remembers, but a balding, beer-bellied, nine-to-fiver? But Cass just can't help herself...

A delightful romantic comedy from the author of Two's Company.

Anna has a steady job, a great social life and a recently deceased relationship with unreconstructed hippy Nic. She has never changed a nappy or kissed a baby in her life, and that's the way she intends to keep things. Until Laura, her best friend, announces she's pregnant, Nic discovers he has a teenage son from a long-ago relationship and Anna falls madly in love with a man who just happens to come complete with a baby daughter.

Does Anna really want a baby in her life? As broken nights, toys on the floor and the carnage of children's parties take their toll, she begins to wonder. Then the baby's mother reappears on the scene...

Better Than the Real Thing 03-Dec-2013

£0.99 £6.99

Art galleries. You might think they’re boring, but a quick visit to an art gallery one rainy morning started off a whole chain of events for Lia Bailey that encompassed sex, lies and (the modern digital equivalent of) videotape. As well as a wedding and a funeral that never happened, a dramatic reconstruction of one of the drier scenes of Titanic, a little kung fu and spoon-bending, and dancing to Barry Manilow in Basingstoke. All beginning with meeting a fictional man who’d been murdered and decapitated centuries previously.
Art galleries boring?
As if.

Ever since she ditched her control-freak fiancé, Lia Bailey has avoided getting involved with anybody. Whenever a new man appears she can always think of a good reason why he isn’t worth the bother. Then two come along at once to test her resolve. Exciting, dangerous Will Sheridan looks like a Pre Raphaelite hero and isn’t like anyone Lia’s ever met. Justin Salter is handsome, charming and successful. He’s also going to be the best man at Lia’s sister Jane’s wedding. Can either of them break through Lia's defences?

As well as worrying about whether Will might be an axe murderer and whether she can cope with Justin’s taste in shoes, Lia has to deal with rebuilding her relationship with her mother and her sister in time for the wedding, and with a flatmate who doesn’t seem too worried about paying the rent. It’s just as well she has the sanctuary of her job as an antiques restorer to keep her sane - until a valuable painting goes missing.

Last Reach Point lighthouse has been home to the Jackson family for years. When half of its garden crashes into the sea during a storm, Beth Jackson knows she can't delay the inevitable. It's time to find a new place to live. Out of the blue, Beth receives a lifeline from TV celebrity and would-be politician Gareth Dakers. He offers the Jackson family the chance to live at his home in London. Beth's father and son are delighted with the move, but Beth has her doubts. Moving to the big city is an upheaval, and there's certainly more to Gareth's offer than meets the eye - but it just might heal some old wounds.

"Touching, realistic and romantic - I loved it" - best-selling author Katie Fforde.
