Helen Thorn

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 
 
'Helen is the woman I want in my life when the shit hits the fan' - Bryony Gordon 
 
What do you do when your relationship suddenly ends? How do you cope when the cosy 'coupley' future you had planned disappears? 
 
Join comedian Helen Thorn from The Scummy Mummies as she haphazardly takes the plunge into single life for the first time in twenty-two years. 
 
 Helen shares her own roller coaster journey from the initial shock of a surprise separation, the messy months hanging out in her PJs through to the highs of rediscovering online dating, tiny pants, rock-solid female friendships and the glorious joy of just being by herself. 
 
With the help of relationship experts and an army of women "who know", Get Divorced, Be Happy will show you that going it alone isn't the end, it is just the beginning, and you will come out the other side, stronger, happier and goddamn sassier than ever before.

Get Divorced, Be Happy

How becoming single can turn out to be your happy ever after

How becoming single turned out to be my happily ever after

Laura Naser

Your family lawyer in a book. 
 
Whether you are married or living together – with children or without, if you are thinking about or are in the process of splitting up, this book is for you. 
 
When a relationship breaks down it’s hugely stressful and emotional – and often very confusing. Who gets to keep what? Will I ever see my kids? What needs to happen and when? What if things get nasty? 
 
This all-encompassing book, by family lawyer Laura Naser with years of experience helping couples reach the best solution possible, is here to bring calm and clarity, whatever the situation. She will guide you through the entire process from making sure this is what you really want and knowing what’s at stake, through to detailing all your options (whether you are married or not), what to do and in what order, and with a specific focus on co-parenting, managing money, social media, effective communication and how to resolve tricky issues that come up along the way. 
 
See this book as your trusted companion and guide - everything you need to know to get through this and thrive is right here.

The Family Lawyer’s Guide to Separation and Divorce

How to Get What You Both Want

James Sexton

‘Who would have guessed that the person who gives the best advice about marriage was the guy responsible for getting you out of yours?’ – New York Times 
 
'Brutally honest and wildly useful' - Steven Bartlett 
 
James J. Sexton has spent over two decades in the trenches of high-stakes divorce – watching good people tear each other apart over bad communication, broken trust and problems that could’ve been solved early on. If they’d only known what to look for. 
 
How Not to F*ck Up Your Marriage is what he wishes every couple had read before it was too late. This book is an early warning system, a no-punches-pulled guide to the small mistakes, blind spots, and lazy habits that quietly destroy relationships – and the real work it takes to stay in love for the long haul. 
 
From emotional drift to financial landmines to social-media sabotaging, from sex to silence to the granola box that finally breaks you, this is a deeply practical, deeply funny guide to protecting your connection, resolving conflict before it escalates and staying close through real life. 
 
Whether you’re in a relationship, out of one, or wondering if yours will last, this is the relationship book written by someone who has seen how they end – and who, despite it all, still believes in love.
