Romance reader. I love historical romance and smart, sexy contemporaries.
Wonderful debut novel and new series. If you enjoy a good contemporary romance with snappy dialogue and steaminess than pick this one up! There are two storylines, the main one featuring Adam and Miranda and the secondary one featuring Mirandas brother and the sous-chef. ***Possible spoiler*** Now this was a male-male relationship which is a bit out of my comfort zone but seemed to work well with the storyline as it also is a coming out story for Jess, the brother. I wasn't expecting that so maybe thats why it threw me off a bit. Nothing really graphic with them but a few scenes of foreplay type action. ***End***Overall, this was a very well written book, especially considering this was a new author. I likes how Miranda and Adam had sexual chemistry and tension right away but didn't immediately jump into bed together, it built up a bit...until cooking lessons at his home and you know where that leads ;) The cast of off beat characters are wonderful and I look forward to them poppin up in future books. The way the author described the cooking scenes, well, I almost feel like I could poach an egg :) It will definitely make you hungry. A solid four and a half stars! I can't wait for the next!
