After reading several of this author's other books, I was very interested in reading this one. I was not disappointed. Mr. Baker has proven that he is a very talented author who has the ability to write in a variety of genres. I especially liked his quote at the end of this book, in his bio: "Write what you know about, and you will always have plenty to write about." Those words are an inspiration to me, as an author.This book is the love story of Dan and Goddess. I enjoyed the story of two young lovers who were given "compromise names" at birth by their parents. If you don't believe in karma or "love at first sight", you will after you read this book.Goddess takes a Soul Food Cooking Class so she can learn to bake a pecan pie for Dan, her soul mate. The class is taught by Bernice Hightower. Goddess proves to be one of her more challenging students.I learned a few things by reading this book. I enjoyed reading about public schools in Chile. I was reminded that Memphis is the birthplace of blues and rock and roll. I have never visited Memphis, but after reading this book, I need to add a trip to Memphis to my bucket list. I highly recommend this well written love story.
