The Lonely Fajita

This book had me in stitches from the beginning!

No money, no boyfriend, nowhere to live and no job prospects forces Elissa to think outside the box and finds herself applying to be a live in companion to Annie; stubborn, proud and independent.

I felt so many times throughout this book that I was in the room with Elissa such was the depth, warmth, intrigue and hilarity within this refreshing story that include characters that span across three generations.

Every situation and drama felt so plausible and relatable and I feel the author really knew her characters inside out, giving each of them such different personalities that worked so well in this novel.

Elissa is a 'can do' kind of girl that gets her into tricky situations as well as getting her out of them. The relationship between herself and Annie goes through almost every state of emotion and yet still comes out the other end and it is filled with surprises along the way.

This story was so good I had to cancel a lunch date to finish it!

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!

This is a magical hug of a book. Elissa and Annie are a wonderful double act! If you’re feeling blue and need a pick me up then pick this up - you won’t be disappointed!
