Food and romance what a great combination. Overall I like the story, there were a few things that I kept thinking I walked in on the middle of an existing book. When new characters were introduced it was like I was missing a piece of their story/their background, for instance, the characters Jimmy and Emma, I felt that I missed out on their story. I found the author did this with many of the secondary or minor characters that were scattered among the pages.I loved the way the author built up the sexual tension between the two leading characters, and when they finally succumb to their urges- wow what an sexually explosive combustion. I loved their romance, although it may have elements of lust there was always the feeling of respect, love and kindness.The author gave the readers some suspense which balanced out this book from being just about the romance. I would have loved to see more recipes, maybe even a section in the back spotlighting some of the dishes highlighted in the book.The book was an even pace except at the end, I felt the author rushed through the ending, like she was tiding up loose ends. I felt rushed, I almost wished she just ended when the two lovers agreed to their HEA.  All in all, I think it was an enjoyable read and I will read more from this author.
