Today we are pleased to feature Kat Mackenzie's debut rom-com, Work in Progress, which will be available next week. The story sounds delightful; a romantic armchair adventure. Thanks to HarperCollins, we have FIVE copies to give away!
A warm, sexy, laugh-out-loud rom-com about a woman who, desperate for a fresh start, books a literary bus tour across the UK that consists of a lively group of elderly ladies plus one infuriatingly handsome Scottish driver.
UK Bus Trip Goals:
1. Crawl out of pajamas.
2. Get over cheating bastard and his stupid ironed jeans.
3. Have my first real adventure!
4. Achieve stability, strength, and growth.
5. Definitely do NOT kiss any British men.
Alice loves a good list. But careful planning didn’t stop her from losing her job and her fiance in one fell swoop. With her dreaded 30th birthday looming on the horizon, Alice makes the first impulsive decision of her life - booking a flight to the UK for a three-week, all-female, literary bus tour. What could possibly go wrong?
Turns out - everything.
Alice arrives to discover that this tour isn’t what she expected. At all. Instead of cool, globe-trotting thirtysomethings with meaningful tattoos, she finds a rickety, antique bus full of fluffy-haired octogenarians. And to make matters infinitely worse, the tour guide makes her blood boil! And that devilish grin of his tells her he’s dead set on making her trip a misery.
But as they travel from castle ruins to cozy pubs, Alice may just find that she’s got it all wrong. The ladies are vivacious. The book club chat is on fire. And damn if that mischievous smile doesn't threaten to turn her world upside down - and her beloved list right along with it!
"Mackenzie's outstanding, sweet debut will find many fans with its broad appeal... Readers will enjoy the abundant gentle humor, intergenerational friendships, and armchair travel—as well as the slow burn of a tasteful romance." — Booklist (starred review)
"If I could invent my perfect romcom, it would be this: Books, buses and a sexy Scotsman are already a great start. Add to that the pitch-perfect, snarky hero-heroine interactions and the ending which is genuinely heartwarming and satisfying. The lashings of cake and hilariously observed Anglican-American cultural incompatibilities are a bonus. This book is an absolute delight."
— Poppy Alexander, author of Storybook Ending
"A laugh out loud, delight of a book. Kat Mackenzie made me feel like a tourist in my own country."
— Elliot Fletcher, author of Whisky Business

I have family in Australia, so I used to visit often. I haven't been for quite a few years as I don't like to fly anymore.
The last international trip was over 5 years ago. I visited Amsterdam and Italy. I haven't traveled since then and miss it very much.
I've never been out of the country, but I'd love to go to Greece.
Last overseas trip was to visit relatives in Hong Kong
I have never traveled overseas, but I would love to go to Paris.
The last international trip was to Europe. And I want to go to London. It's on my bucket list.
