Immaculate Conceit by Stella Duffy
Sofia is a lap dancer with a commendably chaotic life. She's single, occasionally shagging her ex, and pretty damn happy. Then the Angel Gabriel appears to tell her she's pregnant with possibility - specifically the new Messiah. Second coming with no coming in the first place. Sofia doesn't own a watch let alone a biological clock - but there's no denying she's pregnant. She falls out with her ex and falls in love with Gabriel. Who's falling too. The world may well want a new saviour, but this time the perfect mother is feeling less than magnificent about the prospect.
