review 2: This is my favorite cozy series. Ollie, the main character, is the head chef at the White House. The back story and location couldn't be more fascinating. She is feisty, talented and a strong, honest woman. I devoured the book in one day.I gave it 5 stars because I felt it was at the top of its genre but I don't really consider cozies great literature but fun, relaxing reads. Recipes included! less
