Sophia Brown is trying to get through life. After the death of her husband, she is lost and only a ghost of her old self. Her daughters sign her up for a reality cooking show where she is paired up with Elliot Adamson, a chef from Scotland. Chef Adamson is arrogant, loud and obnoxious. He thinks he can push mousey Sophia around so he can win the contest. Sophia finally finds her backbone and pushes right back and eventually they make a great team.

I really enjoyed this refreshing, short read. All

This was a great little story. My only complaint is it was just too foodie.....not enough nookie. I love second chance romances. Especially ones with older couples. This was a fun quick read.

3 1/2 "Beauty and the Beast" Stars!!

Although I think the "falling in love" took place at warp speed, I found this story to be utterly charming and sweet. It didn't happen fast in the book, but considering Elliot and Sophia only actually spent about a week together, it was fast.

I enjoyed reading Elliot and Sophia's story very much. I even enjoyed all the food talk and description. Happy reading!

TPAM buddy read

Loved this book and the only reason it didn't get a full 5 stars was there was too much cooking and not enough of the other in my opinion.
