So much to love in this romance! Cooking and food -- makes me hungry just thinking about those scenes. An adult romance that isn't overly explicit. Family that is both supportive and exasperating. Meddlesome matchmakers and a couple who fall in love while trying to outsmart the matchmakers. It was the perfect level of humor and entertainment.
If there's a downside, it's probably how the main couple could have cleared things up sooner if they'd asked each other a few more questions. Some readers might get exasperated at the heroine going through multiple rounds of trusting and then distrusting the hero. The rounds of distrust were resolved fast enough -- and the hero was sweet enough -- that it didn't bother me.
