The Sugar Game
Rules can be dangerous
Jessica and Holly’s friendship was inevitable as sunrise. Hungry for life beyond sleep, eat and repeat they land in the bright lights of London.
They don’t want love, they want independence. They don’t want predictable, they want adventure. They don’t want a relationship they want to play. When Holly stumbles across a sugar baby-dating website, a glamorous world of entertaining wealthy men lures them in. They make their own rules, choose an alias and the sugar game begins.
Jessica’s pursuit of independence is rocked when Jerod, a workaholic scientist opens the door of her latest date. Jessica’s mask slips as he loosens the grip on her stubborn heart. But when he pulls back, her insecurities flare, what is he hiding? A shadowy figure from his mysterious past may have the answer. What he reveals locks Jessica into a dangerous conflict, putting her only sense of security on the line.
Determined to find the truth, she battles between her heart and head. Whatever choice she makes, this is not going to be easy. As rules get broken, will the girls ever win the sweet futures they signed up for?
Job Slut
Anna Baker has been a notorious jobslut ever since unceremoniously quitting her first fast food job as a teenager. Now she has about as much chance committing to a career as Richard Branson does to retiring. Unsure if this is something to celebrate or worry about, she moves to London and proceeds to bounce around from promising positions at a law firm to a brief fling as a marital detective and everything in between. In between talking her way into jobs she is in no way qualified for, like preparing the dead for viewings at a mortuary and selling slum flats, she injects a little nonsense into the humdrum life of the normals around her- without ever trying to face her past.
When she finally stumbles into a career that seems perfect—weird hours, lots of shopping, plenty of wine—but starts to flake out anyway, her closest friends begin holding up mirrors she cannot avoid. Will Anna ever realize the things she keeps running from may be all she ever wanted? In this hilarious novel about all the places we look for fulfilment, Jobslut is perfect for those still trying to find themselves in the biggest relationship of them all: the nine-to-five.
