My Review:

This short novel is perfect to read in a relaxing afternoon in the pool or the sea. It's a fast and short read but very addictive and enjoyable. A romantic love story with a sad feud between two families that has lasted for years. Is the case to stop it?

Greg's restaurant Fives Cusines  is going really well. Now is the turning point. He is going to receive a visit from a famous food critic, if the review is positive, his restaurant will take off. But this newspaper belongs to his father's rival. He will destroy him as he did with his father? The daughter of his rival, Allie sees him do yoga from the window of her room and she's just very attracted to him .....

It 's a truly immersive reading, a very intriguing plot that kept me glued to the pages curious to know what would happen. I read it in one sitting.

This is the first book in a series, I'm really curious to read the other romantic stories that this author has created.

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a sweet and amazing story.

EXCERPT:

Greg dashed inside. He sped through a shower and dressed. As he dashed to the door he halted. Champagne. He had brought a bottle from the restaurant and had chilled it overnight. Mimosas went with everything and might take the edge off his raging desire to claim Allie’s body as soon as he entered Steve’s apartment.

With the chilled wine in hand he walked upstairs and knocked on the door. Allie answered. Her smile broadened and she tapped the bottle. “Mimosas, the perfect touch. Come with me.” He followed her to the kitchen where she took a carafe of orange juice from the refrigerator. She indicated the glasses on the table. “Do the honors while I tend to the rest of the meal.”

He smelled cinnamon and coffee. As he opened the champagne he watched her pour a mixture into two metal omelet pans. She stood so he couldn’t see what she added. She accepted a glass and sipped. He caught a hint of vanilla on her skin. The way to a man’s heart might be through the stomach. For this chef, aroma, taste and presentation did the trick. She aced all three. He feared he was lost.

“To a new friendship,” he said.

She touched her glass to him. “May it long endure.”
