Once you pick up Babyville, it's unlikely you'll put it down

Julia and Mark are stuck in a loveless relationship. Julia thinks a baby will help, but perhaps that isn't the answer to her problems. 
 
Maeve is totally allergic to commitment - she breaks out in a rash whenever she passes a buggy. Then a one-night-stand results in an unwanted pregnancy. But just how unwanted is it? 
 
Samantha is besotted with her new-born baby. But how is husband Chris coping with his suddenly unavailable wife, and is Samantha's obsession as healthy as it seems?

Jane Green, author of The Other Woman and Jemima J., explores the chaotic world of pregnancy and motherhood in the number one best-seller Babyville. 
 
In Babyville nothing's ever simple . . . 
 
Julia worries that her relationship with Mark has turned stale. She thinks a baby will put love back into their lives. But is a child really the answer? 
 
Julia's best friend Samantha is besotted with her new baby. But what's her sudden obsession doing to her marriage? And does Samantha's infatuation hide something much darker? 
 
Meanwhile career-girl Maeve is allergic to commitment - nothing's going to stop her getting to the top. Then a one-night stand results in an unwanted pregnancy - but just how unwanted is it? 
 
Three young women are about to find out how Babyville can turn your world upside-down . . .
