review 1: I bet the food was delicious, though fictional. I also love to cook (and eat) so I can imagine what wonders spices can do to a dish, even dessert. But food is not the main focus of this story. It's a love story between the chef and the restaurant owner, which to my palate is j...

review 1: I've given this one an extra star just because it isn't a genre I normally read, ad I suspect that is influencing my rating. It was a free Kindle book. Young wife with shaky marriage is hired to design restaurant for former lover while husband is overseas for a month. Best fri...

review 1: Spoilers - I really liked this book but it gave me severe anxiety. Not knowing if she was gonna make it out of the car put me on edge and made my brain confused. Is this a thriller or light chick lit. I didn't like that. I also didn't buy the sleeping with Joel twist. Andrew woul...
