The funny new debut 2026 rom-com perfect for fans of Beth O'Leary, Steph Vizard and Robinne Lee.

'An utterly charming debut brimming with laugh-out-loud moments, irresistible charm and sizzling chemistry.' Bridie Blake

She's a breakfast radio star, the queen of witty banter and humorous accounts of her chaotic love-life-until a secret from her past makes headlines of its own.

Emily Blake, known to listeners as the fearless, filter-less Blake from 'Mack and Blake in the Morning', has built a career out of turning her messy life into radio gold. But when a cheeky on-air stunt spirals out of control, Blake finds herself accidentally crowdsourcing her next date...and unearthing a past romantic encounter she thought was long buried.

Thirteen years ago she spent one unforgettable whirlwind week with a man who then vanished. And now, with her daughter starting high school and asking questions about the dad she never knew, Blake asks her radio listeners to help her find the one that got away.

What starts as ratings bait quickly becomes something much more personal. Now, with the whole city listening, Blake must decide if she's ready to discover the truth...not just for her listeners, but for the person who deserves it most-her daughter.

Witty, sexy, and full of humour, Once Upon a Breakfast Show is a heartwarming love story about missed chances, hot mics, and what happens when a woman finally takes control of her own story.

'Sharp, funny, addictive and full of heart, absolutely nails the pressure, the tension, the vibes and the on-air chemistry of breakfast radio.' Heidi Anderson

'After fourteen years in breakfast radio, I know exactly how fast your love-life can become on-air content! It had me hooked from page 1. You'll be laughing, cringing and guessing right till the end! LOVED IT!' Bianca Dye
