i finished reading “taste for love" this morning, and i'm happy to say i enjoyed every second of it! when tia kelly first began sharing excerpts for the book on her blog, i was overjoyed and anxious. as the book's release date neared, however, i began to worry that maybe i had already read all of the good parts of the story. i was excited about the book, but i also didn’t want to create too many expectations and not let the story just happen (clearly i take my women’s fiction very seriously..lol)luckily none of that was the case with “taste for love.” the best part of the book, for me, was watching shelly and carlos’s relationship develop and evolve. often times in women’s fiction and romance novels, the courting phase of the relationship feels rushed and before you know it, everyone’s married and living happily ever after. but not with shelly and carlos.it was fun getting to know carlos more intimately and learning the true motivation behind shelly’s past actions. everyone has their own stuff to work through, and their journeys never feel predictable or boring. by learning to forgive and let go of the past, they can finally move on and enjoy the love in front of them.i’m going to go out on a limb and say this is my favorite book from kelly thus far. i can’t wait to see what lies ahead for the wilkersons!
