Stepping Up - A Joseph Quinn & Reader Story
You're not yet 30 and you've already lived a life with more drama and intrigue than all your friends combined.
Finally professing your feelings to your "will they, won't they" best friend, everything was like a RomCom. Until, of course, you made the stupid decision a few years ago to marry your school sweetheart on the grounds of you being pregnant with his child, but that so-called romance seemed to fizzle out the second you said "I Do".
This has left you divorced and living as an independent single mum in a flat in London with your gorgeous now 4-year-old, Lily.
Working back to back shifts between the coffee shop and bar, raising a child and just trying to survive doesn't leave you much time for socialising- plus the thought of dating turns your stomach after how Lily's dad treated you while you were pregnant. You didn't want to bring any more disappointing men into Lily's life.
That was until you met an interesting stranger while at work, a stranger who became somewhat of a stalker... in the most romantic sense.
He's cute and charming, and shows such interest in your life. But he's an actor, a world famous one too, so how could he possibly fit into your little family unit.
Time to face the crash course of dating a superstar whilst trying to raise a child.
