City Kitty and Country Mouse by Alyssa Linn Palmer

4.0

City Kitty And Country Mouse is a sweet, organic, farm-to-table foodie romance between Kitty, a city lawyer, and Lucy, an organic farmer, who aren’t actually as different as they think.

I wouldn’t say City Kitty And Country Mouse is an opposites attract love story. While Kitty is from the city and has a high powered job, the minute she steps on Lucy’s farm, she feels at home and her heart recognizes that these people, this place, and this food is where she wants to be and what she wants to be doing. The rest of the book is just her head catching up.

Things move at a lightning pace once Kitty visits Lucy at her farm for the first time. The two quickly go from acquaintances to lovers, have their first overnight sleepover, and decide to open a pop-up restaurant together. It all seems kind of fast, but I guess when you know, you know, you know?

I really enjoyed this book. Yes, Kitty and Lucy’s relationship seemed to develop fast, but it felt organic and not forced and it worked. The descriptions of dishes were really appetizing and simple enough that I kept thinking I wanted to try my hand at making them (I’m pretty much a simple 5-ingredients or less cook). I would definitely pick up books by this author again.
