Paranoia
One of Matt Haig's earlier books and I'm becoming a bit of a Haig disciple after reading a great number of them now.
The Possession of Mr Cave is the story of fatherhood lead by paranoia and is quite difficult to put down. Paranoia effects every decision and judgement from a father that loses one child and is desperate to preserve his other. Is he being possessed by his dead son or is he just losing his mind? Does desperation to be a great father cause you to be a great father or will it stifle life? You want to continue reading every page, just one more until its end. Another brilliant read!

Sofia Bingham needs a job, and working for her childhood friend and tycoon, Eric Jenner, is the perfect solution. But Eric is grown up now and tempting as hell! When attraction turns into an unforgettable night of passion, Sofia wants to go back to business. But Eric is determined to convince her he’s playing for keeps…
This book fits into the standard “m&b” mould... will they, won’t they, they did... fall in love, fight, get married...
well written, and surprisingly focusing more on the feelings of Eric, and what he wants out of life, it followed the pattern, and ended with a happily ever after. Okay short read, but didn’t blow my mind.

Really a collection of five short(ish) stories rather than a novel in its own right, this is chronologically the last in the Hornblower series, published the 10th of 11.

The Napoleonic wars are now over, with Hornblower dispatched to - you guessed it! - the West Indies in charge of a much reduced squadron, where he finds himself embroiled (yet again) in various and sundry adventures, all 'topped off' by his survival of a Hurricane after his appointment is over.

I'd read elsewhere that this could be described as a coda to the main Hornblower saga, and that seems a fair enough comparison to me: basically, an extra piece added on to the end of a tale!
