Huge thanks to my superstar editor, Victoria and all of the team at HQ Digital for their enthusiasm and hard work. Special thanks to my agent, the incredible Juliet Mushens, for all her help and support. Thank you to all my wonderful friends, twitter pals and the incredible 100 day writing gang for cheerleading and encouragement. Thank you to Paul who supported and encouraged me the whole way through with love and humour (and almost, nearly, learned to cook.)
Thanks to Mum and Dad for encouraging my love of reading and for taking me into town to spend my pocket money on Enid Blyton books. That’s how this whole book thing started. Thank you to all my family, old and new, Mullallys, Keatings and Hills, especially Cecilia who loved her romance books. I wonder would she like this one?
For Paul
It was Saturday. It was bad enough having to work on a Saturday in the first place but even worse that it was going to be the hottest day of the year. Worse still because Ayesha had called in sick – this time saying she had gastroenteritis. I suspected it had more to do with the fact she’d gone straight out after work last night. I didn’t have any hard evidence, of course, but I’d seen her Facebook status which read:
‘WTF is KEBab KIngdom shut for!! Nevr shut. Alwys open. Noooooooo.’
The last ever recorded incident of Kebab Kingdom being closed before five a.m. is believed to be in 1993 so all of this suggested she’d had a great night. Apart from Kebab Kingdom being shut, of course. That must have been disappointing.
But not nearly as disappointing as my own Friday night. I had been looking forward to it all week and had managed to escape the office on time for once so I could go home and spend the evening cooking a romantic anniversary meal for my boyfriend. Connor, who had been absolutely convinced he would be there around nine, had failed to turn up at all. He had always worked at the weekends as a club promoter, putting on bands and DJs and that kind of thing, but this summer he’d been even busier with outdoor events and festivals. It was hard to even remember the last time he’d had a day off and I was getting really fed up of it.
I had waited roughly half an hour – keeping the food warm on the stove before delivering it to the table –, and a further twenty minutes sat at the table on my own, looking at the clock, willing him to get there. I eventually started on the now cold stroganoff myself, but simply didn’t have the stomach for it any more. The food I had spent hours on was completely ruined but it still looked okay so I took a photograph and uploaded it to Instagram. It instantly received a flurry of likes and that made me feel worse because nobody was going to eat it no matter how good it looked.
