So sometimes you get a chance to read a romance novel that not only gives you the feels (lots of aww moments) but also has a really good moving plot that keeps you engaged the whole way through.

I happened to see Audiobook Junkie's review of this book and decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did. I'm still not sure what to do with this book. I don't read books like this.

The was a very good natured, quirky, good read. This book is for the reader who just want something to read that would just remove all stress. I am looking forward to reading another book by this author.

Clever, well iintertwined and a great story. The recipes scattered through were a bonus (and a reason to keep the book not hand it on). I have tried one recipe already and loved the results (as did my husband).The story is a nice wander through "what could have been" if we did follow the dreams of o...
