She is on location in Greece when she gets the call that her beloved Grandmother has passed away.  When she gets home, she finds that her boyfriend had been cheating on her while she goes away.She heads back to the beach house where she stayed with her grandmother and runs into James Margolis.  Six years older than she is, he was the guy she had a crush on as a teenager.  She is relieved to find he has grown into a very good looking man.James is super swoon worthy and as a bonus, he cooks!  James is sweet, a perfect gentleman and the kind of guy you dream about sharing pizza flavored kisses with.  He is seriously perfect.  He's the kind of guy you would want to bring home to mama.  Or at least show her your Kindle and make her read about him.James is opening a restaurant at the beach and hopes that Kay will share her grandmother's famous recipes with him.  They start spending time together and sparks fly.  Obviously, a man in an apron is very sexy.Kay is enjoying her time off, spending it with people she loves and loves being in a familiar place.

When an offer of a lifetime comes knocking at her door, Kay's got a pretty hefty decision she has to make.Kay loves what she does but knows that she will be away more than she is home.  Can she ask James to stay wait for her while she is off traveling the world?James has been working hard to get this restaurant off the ground.  He promised himself that nothing would distract him from his goal.  He knows if he lets Kay go that he will miss her, but he wonders if maybe that it's the best thing for him and the restaurant.Anyone that knows me and what I read, knows that I love the angst filled twisted stories.  Sometimes I wonder if I've fallen too far into the dark side that sweet, romantic books don't do it for me anymore.I was a little worried that I've become too jaded to find pleasure in the sweet stories.  I was very happy to find that I read this book in one sitting and I couldn't put it down.  No angst, no violence and no bad boy was needed to keep my attention.What you have here is a sweet, lighthearted and funny story that was a breath of fresh air for me.  If you're looking for a book that will have you Awwww-ing the entire time and giving you the sweet tingles in your tummy, this is the book for you.
