ARC received for an honest review.

This is my first book from this author. Her writing is great but I just didn’t enjoy the story. Amelie is a chef and “engaged” to an a-hole named Frank. She meets a man at a friend’s wedding and they become friendly. He doesn’t want love. Now, a year later the two run into one another and Amelie is single. However, they find out their fathers are rivals in the restaurant business. Will they or won’t they? The series of flashbacks to what happened to Amelie’s relationships between the men in her life and her terrible friend.

I didn’t know this would be only 1 POV. The flashbacks to Amelie’s relationship with Frank was so frustrating. I wanted to throw my iPad a few times, especially with her friend stealing all of her wedding ideas.

It was a slow burn to the spicy scene, but it was good nonetheless.
