review 1: When I read I like to read different books each time, I'll go for a thriller and then need to read a chick lit to lighten the mood - and this is just what Katie Fforde's books do.This time I'd read two books that needed a light fluffy girly story to follow them.I just love that the story is so easy to get into, the characters are so likeable - with the exception of Cher! Who really made me want to spit! I liked that the main character, Zoe, was not totally without blame - it gave her more depth and created a more believable person.A good read!
review 2: Am very surprised at all the raving reviews on this book. I found the characters really boring - Zoe was a complete pushover. I can respect generosity and helpful natures, but bending over backwards to do so m
... moreany tasks for people who give you nothing in return was just infuriating to read. There was no real depth into Gideon's character, and so the romance was a bit blah and didn't entice or excite - wasn't very believable to read that they had fallen madly in love when there wasn't much couple action apart from Zoe's constant fears at being not good enough, or the plentiful rambles on how their affair was scandalous and threatened her chances at winning. Cher's character was also unbelievable - the shallow, bitchy stigma was overdone to the point where it felt her superficial tendency was forced to portray her as being the ultimate bitch. And in the beginning, there was too much flitting between bitchy and weirdly nice Cher, and Zoe kept falling for it... A very frustrating read - due to the repetitive rambles and frustrating characters - that dragged on a bit too long. The only enjoyable part was the cooking competition element, as the romance was just not romantic at all.Sorry for the negative review. less

Don't even know why I read these, tbh. To quote Father Ted: 'Chewing gum for the brain'.

love it. Was able to get emotionally involved with Zoe the main character.
