Woman & Home Short Story

I absolutely loved writing a short story for the June Issue of Woman & Home. It’s entitled ‘Just One’ and it’s about a woman in the aftermath of a nasty divorce, who finds herself again through food, and the man who delivers it.

To whet the appetite (badoom-chush), here’s the opening:

‘Table for how many?’ the waiter asked.

He tapped two menus against the counter, scouring the restaurant for a cosy nook. He would be hard-pushed to find one. It was 7pm on a Saturday night and everyone who was anyone in Edgbaston was out enjoying their weekend and a meal they wouldn’t have to wash up.

Or should that be anyone who had anyone?

‘Madam?’

‘Just one.’ Rebekah replied.
