The Awkward Path To Getting Lucky

A laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, perfect for summer!

‘In thirty-four days, it will have been exactly two years to the day since I've had sex.’

Kat Carmichael knows that breaking up with her boyfriend was definitely the right decision. She can’t even remember the last time she had sex, for the last two years she’s poured all her passion into setting up her (thankfully successful) bakery business.

But with her best friends now showering her with tips and encouragement for getting lucky, she doesn’t know which way to turn! So when her – very attractive – customer, Ben, offers her a helping hand, it’s a proposition she can’t resist…

Kat knows she needs to keep things strictly in the ‘friend zone’ but what if Ben walking into her bakery was the luckiest day of her life?

Reviews

"The Awkward Path to Getting Lucky is the Cupcake Wars meets The Bloggess. Readers who love hilarious, bawdy humor with a heaping dose of swoon will adore Summer Heacock's special debut!" -Amy E. Reichert, author of The Coincidence of Coconut Cake and The Simplicity of Cider

"Reading The Awkward Path To Getting Lucky is like hanging out with your smartest, funniest, most thoughtful and all-round favorite girlfriend. If you're the kind of intelligent, complicated woman who Leans In at work but watches The Bachelor at home, who does yoga Saturday morning and drinks margaritas Saturday night, who can stand on her own but still wants to be swept off her feet, then this is the comfort read for you." -Gemma Burgess, author of the Brooklyn Girls series

"Lighthearted and entertaining, Summer Heacock's debut, The Awkward Path to Getting Luckyi, is full of voice and a cast of characters that are side-splitting funny. Between the shenanigans and drool-worthy cupcake descriptions is a modern day exploration of one woman's quest for happily ever after. – Karma Brown, bestselling author of Come Away with Me and The Choices We Make
