I don’t even like cooking, but I can’t wait to try some of these! LOL!
I love every book in this series! J Kenner can write about a group of people but each story is fresh and new. I love how the recipes are mixed with short stories – made this read fun and exciting!
Lovely recipes and 4 novelettes
Bar Bites is a wonderful addition to the Man Of the Month series. It is unique, featuring recipes for wonderful drink concoctions and good ‘ole bar food. They sound so delicious with easy to follow steps and simple ingredients.
And I really loved catching up with characters from the previous books in the series. We get a look into their lives away from the bar.
1.Reese and Jenna in “All I Need”
2.Nolan and Shelby in “One More Night”
3. Spencer and Brooke in “Don’t Let Go”
4. Eric and Tiffany in “Just A Kiss”
Tiffany Russell and Eric Shay, individually, have crushes on each other. But don’t act on their attraction because Tiffany used to date Eric’s older brother. How can she make the moves on her ex-boyfriend’s brother? Well, things get heated when they’re thrown together and sparks fly.
In this installment, we learn The Fix on Sixth Bar is doing well, the man-of-the-month contests and promotional events worked to bring the business to a positive financial position. Eric gets the chance for promotion as the new bartender at the new location.
I opened this ebook fully expecting to find some delicious recipes to try, and I definitely did. But there is so much more. I was pleasantly surprised by the 4 novellas giving more story for Reese, Nolan, Spencer, and a new story for Eric. These delicious stories pair quite nicely with some yummy recipes. Thoroughly enjoyed all.
4 It’s Got It All Stars!!!
Imagine my surprise when I started this book that I realized not only did we get some great recipes for both food and drink but also some great updates from previous books couples and a new couple’s story….
I found myself going through this book planning when and where I would make some of these delicious sounding recipes…I mean Cheeseburger Fries? Sign me up!! A Fizzy Watermelon…that’s going to be my drink of choice at the pool this summer….and Lasagna Rolls will be a definite fall/winter dish I’ll be making.
Along the way, we get more Reese and Jenna and their bundle of joy entering the world, Nolan and Shelby showing us what it’s like having your entire life broadcast for the world to see, Spencer and Brooke and a secret that left me smiling and a new couple’s story that I loved so very much!
Bravo to Ms. Kenner and Ms. Johnson for giving us a book that is the best of both worlds food and romance!!
Wow this book has a little bit of everything, you get a little story but you also get some good recipes and cocktails which I hope to try out.
I don’t think any other author has done a book quite like this before and it is nice to have a change. The recipes made me a bit hungry.
Great Book with outstanding recipes along with 3 short story’s about 3 amazing couples that you will definitely love.
I voluntarily received an ARC for a honest review.
Just when this series cant get any better, It does. This is a cook book, which I plan on trying these recipes. They all look so good.
But we do get a short story in the end. Short and sweet. I’m super loving and enjoying this series.
What a bunch of DELICIOUS, SCRUMPTIOUS, MUST-ADD-THESE-TO-MY-MUST-TRY RECIPES WITH ONE SCORCHING HOT SHORT STORY THAT WILL LEAVE YOU QUITE SATISFIED AND DEMANDING MORE! I LOOOOVE a story where I can get some tasty recipes along with a good story because I feel like I am getting DOUBLE the pleasure and DOUBLE the AWESOME. J. Kenner did a HELL of a job with Bar Bites. Its fast-paced with steamy scenes and enough recipes to keep all us foodies out there completely happy. Thank goodness for Bar Bites!
I give Bar Bites a DELECTABLE FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I will treasure this and I just might have to get it on paperback!
I love the recipes and will be trying them with my family. I also love the short stories of Reece and Jenna Nolan and Shelby and Eric and Tiffany. Excellent collaboration of J. Kenner and Suzanne Johnson.
Food, drinks and some updates on my favorite couples in this fun, sexy, flirty Man of the Month series? Count me in!!
I was so happy to see more with Reese and Jenna, Nolan and Shelby and Spencer and Brooke. Plus a sneak peek at Eric and Tiffany? Some serious swooning going on around my house this weekend!
Let’s not forget some delicious sounding recipes for food and drinks that I cannot wait to try.
Bar Bites definitely whet my appetite for food and drinks and more Man of the Month. I can’t wait for more with All Night Long releasing this month too!
Your mouth will water with the little Bites of flavor that Suzanne Johnson concocts with J. Kenner in Bar Bites: Man of the Month Cookbook.
Fanatically excited that we get to dive back in to certain relationships from the Fix on Sixth and I have to say it was needed. We all have fallen in love with these couples that Kenner has embedded within our hearts, but to entangle ourselves back into certain lives made me very giddy! Out of the certain couples that we rekindle with, my favorite was Reece and Jenna’s, as another romance blossoms within and let me just say… I can’t flipping wait for this Man of the Months book! In addition, a short story is included surrounding Eric and Tiffany’s love.
I really enjoy when Suzanne Johnson teams up with authors and provides us with some of her yummy treats. I have made some of her treats before and they are exceedingly delicious!
Tasty treats w/ some tasty men equals a wonderful addition to the MOTM series!
What a great idea for a book that’s linked to a series but can hold its own as a cookery book. This book has many recipes that we have read about in Man of the Month plus a few more and we got an added bonus of some short loveable reads catching up with previous characters and one new couple.
I was thrilled to get more from Reese and Jenner and what’s better than a birth …. then we caught up with Nolan and Shelby, Spencer and Brooke and then we got a glimpse of a Eric and Tiffany a couple we have yet to meet……
Love the concept, love the recipes, love the couple and I guess you have got the picture ….I loved this book and if you love cooking or reading romance you will too.
I was provided a copy of this book so that I could leave an honest review.
This is the cookbook that goes along with the Man of the Month series. It has some short stories mixed in with the recipes.
I loved the blend of the book. It was nice to see more of the characters I love. And I found a few recipes that I plan on trying in the future.
Great job!!!
4.5 stars
What a nice idea to combine a series with a way to make good food to share with family and friends. Bar Bites combines recipes with some of the favorite couples from the books including: Reece and Jenna, Nolan and Shelby, and Spencer and Brooke to show where they are now along with a brand-new couple, Eric and Tiffany. Ms. Kenner’s easy flowing writing style has a way of creating vivid pictures that set the scene to where the reader feels as if he/she is actually there with the characters. This is a welcome extension of the series and I recommend it for those that enjoy cooking and may want to spice up their menu a bit.
I volunteered to read an advance copy of this book.
The perfect combination in a book…..fantastic recipes and hot, steamy short stories about several of our favorite couples from the Man of the Month series! It was so nice to “catch up” with these characters and find out what’s going on in their lives. Short, fun, and definitely sizzling stories keep you turning the pages. Can’t wait for the next book!
“You’re mine, Tiffany. Wholly and completely. Body and soul. And you know what else? I’m yours too.”
I’ve enjoyed reading this series, and this little nibble is something a bit different. We get to see what’s been going on with the couples we’ve already come to know and love .There’s indications of stories to come, and we read about Eric and Tiffany, and how a slow-burn secret crush can explode in to something that’s steamy and lasts forever.
Add to that the recipes for some of the yummy items on the menu at the Fix and some of their signature cocktails and you’ve got one delicious book!!
Only a few more Man of the Month books to go! Can’t wait!
Cooking is one of my favorite past times. Coming close only to reading. So combining great recipes with short stories by one of my favorite authors, is a winning combination in my book. If you are a fan of the Man of the Month series, you will definitely love the short stories give you a little glimpse in the lives of some of your favorite couples: Reece and Jenna, Nolan and Shelby, Brooke and Spencer. And as a cherry on top, you will get one extra. The story of Tiffany and Eric. All these short stories are sweet, romantic, a little bit funny and just the right amount of sexy 🙂 So be sure to check them out.
And if you love good food and great cocktails, be sure to check the recipes in the book. I already tried a few and I am definitely a fan of everything The Fix on Sixth has to offer 😀 I can’t wait to try few more as soon as I can, I have my eye on a dirty Martini with Blue Cheese olives 😉
This has to be the best cookbook I have ever read. So food mixed with stories about some of the characters. I really enjoyed looking at the recipes and then revisited some of the men and their ladies from the Man Of The Month books. I look forward to making the dishes. The recipes are some of the dishes served at the made up bar The Fix on Sixth.
A perfect companion to Man of the Month books.
Updates on your favorite Man of the Month couples (including a new arrival), fantastic recipes (which can be transformed to gluten free) and Tiffany and Eric’s first kiss.
You cannot ask for more.
Bar Bites is a delicious collection of slice of life stories from the Man of the Month series interspersed with tasty food & drink recipes. Some sexy, sweet moments are spent with three favorite couples from the bar before the final short story, Just a Kiss, gives Eric & Tiffany their shot at love. All the stories are quick & fun and I can’t wait to try some of the yummy drinks!
