I thoroughly enjoyed this. I would put it in the category of mindless brain-candy that was fun and contained no hip-hugging calories. Was it predictable? Mostly. Was it a romance? Sorta. Did I escape my reality for a few hours? You betcha! And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why I read fiction.


I’m not going to reveal the story, that’s what other reviewers have done. There is, however, one thing I wish the author had done. At the end of the chapters or the end of the book, she could have put the recipes in for the food she talked about! Paired with the proper wine. 

 

  

After reading one reviewer’s negative comments on another review site about the author and her book, I feel obligated to correct her (the reviewer, not the author). True, Tallahassee is NOT on the coast. The author never said it was. However, there are several lakes in or near Tallahassee, they often have beaches, and white caps are caused by winds and can appear on any water—lake, river, ocean. And Tallahassee is the largest city in the Panhandle.
