Kat Mackenzie is an American who just happened to find herself living abroad for ten years and accidentally traveling to over forty countries in an attempt to taste all the food. She holds degrees from the University of Edinburgh and the University of Oxford but has discovered that they serve her best collecting dust on the shelf while she pens comedy-forward stories about women who travel.

"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)"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"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“Anglophiles and armchair travelers will adore this.” — Publishers Weekly“Work in Progress delivers one of the best enemies-to-lovers storylines I have come across, making me eager to read more by this author.” — Novels Alive (5-star review)
