This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews Thank you to HarperImpulse for my copy of this book via Netgalley. I am a huge fan of Debbie's writing and I loved the previous books in this series so this book was a must for me. If you haven't read the other books this one can be read as a standalone. 

This book is about Zoe and Martha. Zoe has recently lost her best friend, Kate, to breast cancer. Martha is Kate's 16 year old daughter. Both are grieving at the beginning of this book which was extremely emotional to read so, make sure you have a pack of tissues ready. Martha isn't coping with her grief at all and is pushing Zoe, her now guardian, to her limits. Zoe decides that fresh surroundings will do them both some good. 

It was great to be back in Sudbury and the Cafe again. I really love that place and wish I had something nearby. While there are many emotional scenes in this book there are also some big laughs. Debbie knows just how much of each emotion to inject into the story at just the right time. 

It was great to catch up with all the characters from the previous books and see how they are doing. I adored every page of this book. It's one of those stories that will leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling.  I know there's another book coming next year and I can't wait to go back and join the gang.

Almost 5 stars but I felt the ending was a bit abrupt.

Ughhh I always wind up a blubbering mess when I finish these books! But they do perfectly capture allll the feels. This book was funny and sad and lovely. Every time I come back to the Comfort Food Cafe, I fall more and more in love with the place and the people. I’m so glad there is yet another one coming, though it will be a little more sunshine than snow! A welcome change after my white Christmas.

More fluff.
These mostly follow a pattern, someone is dead, someone is sad, good food makes it a little better then they open their heart to romance and love conquers all.
Going in I didn't love the premise of this one (as far as the love interest), but in the end it was sweet.
