I have to admit that I picked this up at the library without even reading the back - I was looking for a romance book without an illustrated cover to tick off a reading challenge task, and I've read and enjoyed one of Clayton's romances before, so figured why not?
You can imagine my delight when I got home and realised it was a foodie romance. A chef has a meet-cute with a farmer and while half of the book is them slavering over each other the other half is them slavering over cake and other assorted foodstuffs. Given that I'm the type of person who will happily read cookbooks, this was immediately appealing. It was lighthearted and entertaining with nice people as the protagonists which is really all I ask for in a romance. Amusingly, it seems like just the kind of romance book that would do well with an illustrated cover.
And now I want some walnut cake.
