A MUST READ!!
This is the first book I have read by this author and I found her very talented at using cooking as a metaphor for love and relationships throughout the story. Jake is like a renaissance man in that he is well traveled, talented in several areas and open to new adventure. Lucy is determined to find a boring, predictable man to date because all the hit, exciting men have let her down and broken her heart.
She doesn’t want to date Jake because he is hot and exciting. He doesn’t give up on Lucy easily, so the sweet, romantic story has a happy ending.
