But the reason for all this is no mystery. A year and a half ago, Brooke's husband died. But Brooke does have one secret. Her husband's death, the worst thing that has ever happened to her, has made her unbelievably rich. Despite her despair, Brooke suddenly realises she has the power to make her daughter's life, and the world a little brighter.

Emma has a job in television which is distinctly less glamourous and exciting than it sounds. She's managed to claw her way up the ranks from Tea-Maker and Rubbish-Collector to 2nd Assistant Director (heavy on the 'assistant'. Even heavier on the '2nd'). So when she finds she's accidentally very pregnant and at the same time accidentally very sacked (well, less accidentally: she did tell her boss to stick his job up his bum), she knows things are going to have to change. Luckily she's also accidentally the heir to a lovely cottage in Wimbledon, with a crazy Doberman-owning octogenarian as a neighbour and a rather sexy guy as an accidental tenant. But this baby is coming whether she likes it or not, and she needs to become the sort of person who can look after herself let alone another human being - and quickly.
