Duvet Day

I’m delighted to announce that my new romantic comedy ‘Duvet Day‘ is being published by One More Chapter in e-book on 27th May 2021, and in paperback on 19th August 2021.

Dear readers, I think we’ve all experienced that feeling of desperately needing a duvet day, and my main character, Alexa Humphries, is no different. But unfortunately, her spontaneous decision to indulge in one after reaching breaking point in her highly-competitive role as a lawyer spectacularly backfires on her. What starts as a mini-rebellion against the tyranny of her job soon sees her locked out wearing nothing but a unicorn onesie and what’s left of her dignity. Desperate to track down a spare set of keys before her back-stabbing housemate finds out she’s pulled a sickie, Alexa sets off on a wild goose chase across London. Before long, she’s being blackmailed by an annoyingly handsome photo-journalist, forcing her to trail after him while the hours before she has to get home tick down. As Alexa’s dreams of Netflix and self-care turn into the duvet day from hell, what’s starting to feel a lot like the beginning of a breakdown might actually be the making of her. Will she get home in time to keep her job … and does she even want to? I had so much fun telling Alexa’s story, and I really hope you enjoy reading Duvet Day as much as I enjoyed writing it. If you want to send One More Chapter your thoughts or a quote for it, the team would be thrilled to hear from you. Thank you for your support. Best wishes, Emily
