Just a One Night Stand is a dramatic novel set in mid-1960s England and tells the story of unmarried nineteen-year-old Marion McKenzie who finds herself pregnant after drunken sex with Martin Corrigan, a farmer's son. He goes to Cambridge University unaware of his paternity. Once she realises she is pregnant, Marion is forced to confess her plight to her fiance, Simon Thompson. Furious and unwilling to father another man's child, he gives her an ultimatum... him or the baby. Too afraid to tell her divorced parents, Marion is faced with a life-changing dilemma. What will she do?
Just a One Night Stand will deftly propel you back to an era characterised by stigma and religious conservatism - a far cry from the social mores of liberal 21st Century Britain. The story will either leave you relieved that attitudes have changed or perhaps wondering if liberalism has gone too far. For Marion, the 60s were anything but swinging.
