The Cactus by Sarah Haywood

Meet Susan Green: a prickly, independent woman who has everything just the way she wants it. At forty-five she thinks her life is perfect: a London flat for one, a job that fulfils her passion for logic, and a personal arrangement that provides cultural and other - more intimate - benefits. There's no room for messy, emotional relationships.

Yet following the loss of her mother and, implausibly the prospect of becoming a mother herself, Susan's life is about to become somewhat messier.

Excellent used condition.
