Yes, Chef by Waitlyn Andrews

2.0

---

I really, really wanted to like this book more than I did. I loved all the tropes— foodie romance, forced proximity, forbidden romance—and all set in Paris?! But unfortunately the actual romance felt flat for me. The author’s writing style was very much “tell” instead of “show”, so we got very little dialogue and interaction between the FMC and MMC. Again, I enjoyed the plot line but I couldn’t buy into them actually falling in love. The final nail in the coffin was the last 30% of the book which took a sharp left turn (just not my taste) and ultimately felt incredibly rushed. This book had so much potential, I truly wished it was a better experience for me.

Thanks to Netgalley for a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
