Season 3
In season 3 Belle is struggling with not only being Belle and Hannah but also with being a successful published author. She needs her clients to provide her with material for her new book so we see her have all sorts of experiences in the quest for ‘good material.’ Juggling three personas is hard enough, but when her sister Jackie arrives to stay out of the blue (her husband has had an affair) Belle’s life just gets even more complicated. We also introduce a new character – Duncan – Belle’s publisher. Duncan appears to be the archetypal English man – intelligent, restrained, mature – and Belle becomes very attracted to him. She believes this is a relationship which may work – after all, he knows all there is to know about her. But does she know all there is to know about Duncan?
