A bed for three

At 28, Bella is a successful executive: she already drives a Mercedes, wears only designer clothes, and is a show-stopping beauty. She divides her time between her desk, pub chairs, and the arms of her husband, Don—a charming, flirtatious, and almost-forty-year-old she met at a party. It was love at first sight: within three months they were already sharing their toothbrushes and preparing for the wedding. But after a year, Bella develops the strange desire—at least for an executive—to get pregnant! This is the starting point for the fun and romantic "A Bed for Three," Carmen Reid's first and most accurate novel to be published in Brazil. Bella, after all, is a happy woman: she has a great salary, is in love with her husband, and the couple's nights remain quite warm—except when Don is traveling for work, covering some conflict in a distant country. Money, love, and comfort could easily make Bella feel like she didn't need anything else, but... her mind and body keep sending her messages that she needs a child. This leads her to a strategic plan to convince her husband that a baby will be the best investment of their lives. But even before they can put the plan into action, the pregnancy happens. With no other way out, the couple accepts the news. In an exciting, yet stressful... and funny way! Twists and turns in the lives of the couple—and the three of them!—make Carmen Reid's novel more irresistible with each chapter. Don discovers himself in his relationship with his son, Markie, and Bella realizes that the superwoman she once was is now a devoted mother who needs to find a way to maintain her career without compromising her family. Everyday problems of modern life that the couple will manage to solve brilliantly (believe it or not), despite the setbacks and countless setbacks that will transform—surprise of surprises—into much more happiness and love in the couple's life... or rather, the trio's!
