At two of London’s most exclusive prep schools, there are strict rules against parents fraternising with teachers. Well, that’s the theory, in any case. Jenna catches the eye of a world-famous action movie star whose son is in her class. His moves in a penthouse hot tub almost make her forget about his high profile marriage. Almost. But she has no idea who she’s messing with. She’s in way over her head... On the surface, Astrid is an ice-queen entrepreneur. Underneath, she’s still licking her wounds after her husband walked out. It’s time to seriously let her hair down. Her daughter’s young and insanely hot PE teacher, Callum, is all too happy to remind her how satisfying breaking the rules can be. It helps that he’s a maestro with a shower head... Natalia’s influential husband is ousted in a #MeToo scandal. His crimes are enough to put her off men for life. Luckily she has Bex, her daughter’s PE teacher and her close friend, for support. Until the scent of Bex’s skin makes her wonder if happiness is possible without any men at all... Really, the only ones behaving themselves are the kids ...

I like to change things up! I spent my 20s as a banker and my 30s bringing up small children and running my own fashion brand (Madderson London). Now, aged 43, I find myself writing, and I wonder why I didn’t do it sooner. I’ve always loved writing. My daughter Tilly has an old notebook of mine filled with half-finished stories and accompanying drawings. I’ve read for as long as I can remember, guzzling up books so quickly that my mum always protested that I couldn’t be reading them properly. You can see my original, dog-eared version of A Little Princess in my photo. Its protagonist, Sara Crewe, is one of my all-time favourite heroines (alongside Anne Shirley, naturally). I published my first book, Metamorphosis, in February 2020, right before lockdown happened. It’s a non-fiction book about escaping from our cocoons and living as a butterfly. As lockdown progressed, I found escapism in devouring lots of delicious chick-lit (for want of a better title) and I realised I had a few novels in me too. I have loved every single minute of writing them. I’ve published my books independently, and I love the freedom it provides. The world of independent publishing is fascinating and so empowering—I’m delighted to share more of my experiences of self-publishing if you’re interested.
