Books with author R. R. Harding

From the moment my son received an email confirming his place at University, I found myself on an emotional, exhausting yet entertaining journey of hopeless nostalgia, selfish sobbings and shower head shockers. My first 'MUMoir' is an entertaining, witty, emotional and heartfelt account of an experience many parents have either been through or will go through as their children prepare to leave home for University. So for all you parents of teens out there who are heading off to University or who's teens have already flown the nest, grab a cuppa (might need a tissue or a sleeve for both types of tears) and take a glimpse into my 30 minute, 17 page 2 week countdown of my son heading off to Uni.

Pretty Woman meets Caroline Kepnes’s You in the next riveting novel of domestic suspense from Robyn Harding, the acclaimed author of The Party and Her Pretty Face. Nat, a young art student in New York City, is struggling to pay her bills when her friend makes a suggestion: why not date a wealthy, older man? He'll pay her rent and give her a monthly allowance – and all that’s required is being his arm candy when he's in town. Sexual favours are optional. Though more than thirty years her senior, Grant, a corporate finance attorney, seems like the perfect candidate, and within a month, they are madly in love. At least, Nat is . . . Grant already has a family, whom he has no intention of leaving. When he ends everything, Nat begins to stalk him at work, tracking his phone, spying on his wife, even befriending his daughter, who's not much younger than she is. But when Grant is found dead in his posh Upper East Side apartment and the police find the murder weapon in Nat’s apartment, she is sure she must have killed her lover; she just can’t remember anything that happened that night.Praise for Robyn Harding: ‘Painfully compulsive, this riveting drama piles layer upon layer of tension’ Sunday Mirror ‘If you enjoyed Big Little Lies, you’ll love this explosive family drama’ Take a Break ‘A compulsive page turner’ Bella 'A compulsive page-turner that mines the push-pull between basic impulses and doing the ‘right thing,’ The Party is a domestic drama that spins off the rails with hellish consequences' Erica Ferencik, author of The River at Night 'A tense and riveting story about one night gone horribly wrong, and the fallout within a family and a group of friends.
