Nick and Wren are meant to be. But Nick and Wren have never met. And now, fate is about to change everything. Could true love be just a catastrophe away? Local reporter Wren just wants a quiet life with no surprises. Sure, her boyfriend, Alex, is a bit vain and controlling, and maybe their relationship isn’t as exciting as it used to be. But excitement is overrated… right?

Handyman Nick is keen to keep his head down too while dealing with a devastating breakup. All he wants is for his business to be a success, to see his daughter and get on with things. But while restoring an old bookshop, Nick accidentally drops a sheet of glass from a window, missing Wren by a hair before shattering at her feet. Then, from electrocution-by-kettle to tipping bookcases, near misses, mix-ups and mishaps, fate won’t leave them alone. Not until they meet.

When Wren heads to Italy on what should have been a trip for two, she has no idea that Nick is there too. And when a totally coincidental, nearly fatal meet-cute finally throws them together in the magical Blue Grotto in Capri, sparks fly. But Nick and Wren soon find out their lives are even more entwined than they could ever imagine. Will their love survive, or will it be another near miss?

The Near Miss is a totally perfect, completely addictive feel-good romantic comedy of chance encounters and second chances that will have fans of Beth O’Leary, Mhairi McFarlane and Abby Jimenez hooked from start to finish.
