Bookseller synopsis:
Lydia Broom is living her second-best life. With her dreams of being a chef left in the dust she instead finds solace writing about the dishes she wished she created. When Lydia’s sent to Corfu on an assignment, she’s excited to see what culinary delights the island has to offer, but nothing seems to tickle her fancy – until she tastes the creations of local cook, Thanos Nicolaidis.
After one sizzling afternoon in the kitchen together, Lydia and Thanos both allow themselves to dream of the futures they desperately want. And as they grow closer, sharing secret ingredients and family recipes, Thanos begins to realise he has to show Lydia the parts of him he’s done so well to hide…
My reading experience:
Firstly I would like to thank the author, publisher and Netgalley for my free ARC.
This is a fun book, full of flavours and scenery giving the reader a heart warming smile and lift of spirits. The author knows her audience, and writes to them, providing extremely readable, transportive stories to fill sunny afternoons.
