I love Lucy Parker's writing. Her voice is one I enjoy regardless of setting or anything else.
I really enjoyed getting to know Sylvie and Dominic. I always enjoy the opposites attract tropes and this was no exception. It was quite interesting how different these two were and it was fun to see how things worked out. I really liked that while neither had a perfect childhood they both had some good memories. I loved how they began to open up to each other. I also loved how it lended well to personal growth for both characters throughout the book
Sometimes side characters don't do much for me, but I really liked Pet. I'm hoping she gets featured in a future book in this series.
Reality television and baking in general are not my favorite - but that shows you how good Parker is - because I still really enjoyed this book. The reality television parts were appropriately dramatic and the cake parts had me wishing sugar didn't have such a bad effect on me.
I look forward to more in this series and reading a new Parker book has me wanting to reread her first series.
I received an advanced copy of this book through NetGalley. This is my honest review.
