RHODA lives in the East Yorkshire, where the cake shops are excellent. When she was choosing her A-levels, she wanted to take English as her main subject, but her parents suggested that she study science –so that she could get a ‘real job’ –and write in her spare time. Which, funnily enough, is what she does. So it turns out her parents were right. Again.
She writes romantic comedy with a touch of cynicism. Vik from this short story is a character from her next book, Doctor January, which will be published by Choc Lit in 2014.
