Jen Attison likes her life Just So. But being fished out of a canal in Copenhagen by her knickers is definitely NOT on her to do list.
From cinnamon swirls to a spontaneous night of laughter and fireworks, Jen’s city break with the girls takes a turn for the unexpected because of her gorgeous, mystery rescuer.
Back home, Jen faces a choice. A surprise proposal from her boyfriend, ‘boring’ Robert has offered Jen the safety net she always thought she wanted. But with the memories of her Danish adventure proving hard to forget, maybe it’s time for Jen to stop listening to her head and start following her heart…
A fabulously feel-good rom com that will make you laugh till you cry and fall in love with the romance! This is a must read if you love romantic comedies by Sophie Kinsella, Lindsey Kelk or Mhairi McFarlane!

"It's øl-verwhelmingly one of my favourite books of the year.
Jen Attison's life is organised...just as she likes it even though she wouldn't have chosen her current job if she's been honest. Taking on the guardianship of her younger sister meant responsibility far beyond her years and personal sacrifice. Life has been tough. As a consequence, she's making the best of life in an easily predictable way. So when her long-term boyfriend surprises her by proposing, she accepts her fate. Only, her sister, Lydia and their friends have other plans...a premature 'hen-do' in Copenhagen and a mystery man none of them envisaged but overwhelmingly glad he showed up when he did.
Jen is a woman of our current times...micromanaging her hectic life and responsibilities by relying on phone apps, lists and spreadsheets. She's a control freak...it works for her but it also makes her dull and predictable. By stark contrast, her sister is a ray of positivity. Lydia, maybe the younger sister, but she's insightfully refreshing. They clash as siblings do but for once, it is Lydia who is the wise one, pointing out where her older sister is going wrong in her life. For the sisters, it is a long overdue turning point in their relationship, freeing them both to follow their passions in their own unique way.
I can wholeheartedly say is, I was one hundred per cent invested in Jen's Danish distraction. As a reader it wasn't difficult, to fall for this fine specimen of Nordic swoon-worthy masculinity. He oozed sincere charm in a too-good-to-be-true way. As a result, I was sure this novel would be a five-star read for me. However, I felt a bit let down after the end of chapter 31...not because of his dramatic departure but because he didn't re-appear again until chapter 38! I was distraught!
Stand out elements of the narrative are the author's ability to bring her protagonists to life enabling the reader to feel their emotions. Additionally, an integral piece is this novel is passion and Ms Hughes does a fantastic job of drawing these intense reactions from the characters in both a positive and negative way. The dialogue is witty, the humour is subtle...just as I like it. Then there're the contrasting backdrops...Copenhagen, small town, England and the fascinating insight into the craft beer industry. With the latter offering some useful tips.
Last but not least, I haven't read any novels by any of the authors mentioned in the blurb so I haven't a clue if this novel is a good comparison. What I can say is, the author is new to me and one I'll be looking out for again. Skål!

***arc received courtesy of HarperImpulse via NetGalley*** - You might think you know how this is going to go- and you're sort of right- but there's more to it than you find in the the standard rom-com. Jen's living life but she's not having fun. She's working for money, not in her dream job, which is brewing. She's also caring for her sister Lydia, who was seriously injured and copes with loss. AND, while she's got a love interest in Robert, he's well, ho hum. A weekend trip to Copenhagen opens her eyes to other possibilities, including Jacob, the very nice Danish man who pulled her out of the canal. How does her life proceed? Will she accept Robert's proposal? Will she throw him over for Jacob? What about Lydia? What about brewing??? SO many questions! Thanks to net galley for the ARC. A very good read.
- I read the first three chapters as a free sample day before release and was hooked! She had me at “craft beer†since I am also a home brewer. I bought the ebook on release day and couldn’t put it down. If you like a good rom-com that tugs the heart strings in all the right places then you will love this book!
Main character Jen Attison is a type-A list making control freak who thinks all she wants is a steady, dependable, no waves rocking the boat kind of life. Thankfully she falls out of the boat and her nice, boring, list driven life gets turned upside down.
Her relationships with her sister, fiancé, friends, and the new guy each spiral out of her control and in learning to let go she gets to learn about real love and passion in a way no check list could ever teach her.
Probably the Best Kiss in the World is a well written, fast paced, funny and delightful summer romance. “The Kiss†is my new favorite “first kiss†moment in fiction, it’s the spark we all long for. - A captivating, page-turner humorous romantic comedy story that held my attention. Well described characters. Well written book, I enjoyed reading, it's a pleasure to review. I received a free ARC copy of this book, am voluntarily leaving a review.
- When I I started reading this book, I thought I was in for another rom-com; I got this plus a story about not settling, and pursuing your passion(s) as well as what it means to let go. With some rom-coms you can almost predict the outcome but in this story, there are quite a few twists that I was not expecting. Overall a quick read that should be added to your spring or summer reading list if you are in need of a break from reality.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review - thank you #netgalley for an e-copy of this book.
