Summer at the Comfort Food Cafe will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you raid the pantry in the middle of the night
The Comfort Food Cafe is perched on a windswept clifftop at what feels like the edge of the world, serving up the most delicious cream teas; beautifully baked breads, and carefully crafted cupcakes. For tourists and locals alike, the ramshackle cafe overlooking the beach is a beacon of laughter, companionship, and security a place like no other; a place that offers friendship as a daily special, and where a hearty welcome is always on the menu.
For widowed mum-of-two Laura Walker, the decision to uproot her teenaged children and make the trek from Manchester to Dorset for the summer isnt one she takes lightly, and its certainly not winning her any awards from her kids, Nate and Lizzie. Even her own parents think shes gone mad.
Her new job at the cafe, and the hilarious people she meets there, give Laura the chance she needs to make new friends; to learn to be herself again, and just possibly to learn to love again as well.
For her, the Comfort Food Cafe doesnt just serve food it serves a second chance to live her life to the full

She worked as a journalist for many years, until she decided it would be more fun to make up her own stories than to tell other peoples. After trying her hand at pretty much every genre of writing other than Westerns and spy dramas, she has settled on womens fiction that seems to make people laugh and make people cry, often at the same time.
