Summary
This bar is loud.
Like, really loud. According to Mags it's 'the best bar in town' and 'the hotspot for hook-ups'. It was screamed to her over a phone call two days ago, the music in the background and the slur in her best friend's voice making Ann think she was probably there at that point.
She's starting to think that maybe her aunt and sister were right and that dropping out of university to live with her best friend in rural Yorkshire just because her boyfriend was a dick is perhaps a little irrational, and maybe a really, really bad idea. This bar, sticky and crowded and crap, is a reflection of the town.
Damn. She's really regretting this.
"What can I get you?"
Ann's head jerks up from her hand, where it's slumped, to take in the owner of the low voice speaking next to her face. It's the bartender, a tall, dark-haired woman in black jeans and a Nirvana shirt, a grey and black flannel worn open over the top. Ann swallows nervously, ignoring the jump in her stomach. She flashes Ann a friendly smile and repeats her question.
sometimes all it takes is a change of location, a hot bartender, and a couple of ciders.

Summary
Okay so I'm on twitter and I see someone post one of Sophie Rundle's character with a Suranne Jone's character and it hit me. What if, Gemma is so distraught that Tom has left, she decides to move to Sheffield, where she meets single mom Steph at one of her parties...
And I tagged Gentleman Jack because I assume we all love Suranne and Sophie related ideas and thought the Gentleman Jack fandom would love it as well.
It's a "quick" little ficlet and I hope you enjoy it.

Summary
Alice Blake had always been an avid reader. But, you see, the problem was that she could never see herself in those stories—they were always about a woman falling in love with a strong, handsome man. She had always wondered if there was something, anything, that would make her heart beat faster. And then, on a warm afternoon, she found Helen’s Diary.
Helena Harrington was a bitter and lonely woman, even though she had been married to Vivian for almost 15 years. Writing was the only thing that kept her from going insane, and that’s how she became a highly successful author, publishing The Secret Diary of Helen Foster.
But neither of them knew that their fates would collide—and put them both at risk.
A slow burn with a happy ending. Lots of angst, drama, dirty secrets, bitter and snappy Helena, sweet and determined Alice, the suffocating elite, and Vivian being Vivian, as usual. You’ve never read a story like this before, I promise.
