EASTERN PROMISE is the second novel in this addictive new series, THE HEN NIGHT PROPHECIES, following the fortunes of five different girls, each given their own puzzling prophecy at a friend''s hen night... Priya''s prophecy, ''In love, mother knows best...'' does not fit her fiercely independent, successful world. She''s fed up of her disapproving Hindu family''s constant meddling in her love-life. Distrusful of men ever since her betrayal by boss and ex-boyfriend Vic, she throws herself into work. When her new assignment leads her to India to document an ashram high in the hills, Priya hopes to find some much-needed serenity. But with mystery and secrets at its heart, she''s soon convinced something sinister is afoot. And with her feelings for attractive tour guide Noah complicating things further, Priya can''t help but wonder: is Noah really interested in her, or is he trying to distract her from finding out the truth?

Fate, hope and charity influence Charlotte''s romantic destiny as the third prophecy in the addictive HEN NIGHT PROPHECIES series is revealed: ''Love will come through hope alone.''Communications officer Charlotte loves her job at the Arts Council - it''s just a shame she has to share the office with her ex-husband, who also happens to be dating her boss. If there''s one thing that Charlotte doesn''t possess in her current romantic predicament, it''s hope. So when she finds herself in the beautiful Yorkshire moors visiting the Council''s current funded projects, including the aptly-named Hope Foundation, she can''t resist a wry smile. But it''s not long before Charlotte has three potential suitors to choose from: her repentant ex Richard, devoted single-parent Paul, and the notoriously dashing but ever-so-moody Heath. Perhaps Charlotte has reason to hope after all...

The fourth novel in this addictive series, THE HEN NIGHT PROPHECIES, following the fortunes of five different girls, each given their own puzzling prophecy at a friend''s hen night, focuses on Libby,''A danger to men...'' Risk-taker Libby Foster wishes she thought things through more - maybe then she''d avoid being humiliated at work over her reckless romantic attachments. So it''s just as well that she''s swearing herself off men and escaping to a Thai island to work on location casting for a romance-slash-action film. But is she really such a danger to the opposite sex? A series of bizarre events in the serene beach surroundings have Libby fretting, but could it be she''s met her match in Craig, the daredevil martial arts instructor training her cast?
