Today I have a refreshing, new romcom for you with the added bonus of a great Giveaway to enter. Details on how to do this are at the foot of this post. The Gin Lover's Guide to Dating was published by Dash Orion on November 4th and I am delighted to be joining in the celebrations.
When life gives you lemons... add a splash of gin! A
deliciously feel-good romantic comedy for fans of Sophie Ranald
When Liv's high-flying career goes off the rails, she finds
herself working at a glitzy new gin bar to pay the bills. She's never let
romance distract her, but with one very hot colleague, a mysterious online
follower who might just be her soulmate, and a lot of cocktails, her dating
life is about to be shaken up...
But is Liv looking for a sparkling flirtation, or something
a little stronger?
Sometimes you have to face up to your past, seize your
future, and mix your own recipe for happy ever after...
My Thoughts
If you are looking for a fun and feelgood story, with a good range of characters and a little mystery to solve at its heart, this will be the romcom for you. Liv is one of those characters who is instantly likeable yet you are shown her insecurities and flaws as well as her shining good points. Set in Edinburgh, you get to sample Liv's life as she appears to lose everything and yet begins to look at life through a different lens. I'm sure if you know the city, you will recognise some of the places she takes you to and maybe recognise some of the characters who she sees out and about.
Liv's eye for character points and body language seems to be spot on and her wry writing style adds some zest to the story. I really enjoyed reading her blog and could imagine its subjects only too well. There is plenty to smile at but also a slightly darker edge. Not everything in Liv's past can be airbrushed out. This is a fast paced story with lots to entertain and to be recommended.
In short: A cocktail of surprises.

writing her first novel when she was 17 (locked in her room, supposedly

exams did, but the dream of writing never left her.

all enjoyed together in a sunny, seaside destination).
