Description
Breaking up is hard to do… Or the best thing that could happen to you!
It’s Elissa’s birthday, but her boyfriend hasn’t really noticed – and she’s accidentally scheduled herself a cervical smear instead of celebration drinks. Great.
Then there’s her borderline-psychotic boss, the fact she’s not making but losing money at work, and her sinking feeling she’s about to be dumped.
But Elissa will soon find out that being single doesn’t have to be lonely… And with a little help from her friends, even a girl with minus £1,000 in her account can have a lot of fun.
Hilarious and moving, this is a book you’ll want to share with all your friends.
The perfect read for fans of Holly Bourne, Mhairi McFarlane and Sophie Ranald.

Heartwarming and hilarious, The Lonely Fajita is 2020s feel good must read!
'Suddenly single, and not quite ready to mingle', Abigail Mann gives the seemingly clichéd romcom plot a refreshing makeover when homeless and skint Elissa finds herself applying for an elderly live-in companionship scheme. When paired with feisty and stubborn Annie, Elissa is quick to learn that hitting rock bottom was probably the best thing to ever happen to her.
Witty and wonderful, The Lonely Fajita is a light and uplifting story of new beginnings and unexpected friendships. I hope we get to see much more of the loveable Elissa and Annie in the future!
