It was the first one of hers I read and it was a sweetly gentle story. It's an historical by Elisabeth Fairchild. I'd say her style is comparable to Carla Kelly's.Cheryl Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11270513035473727341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-21005687040672632782012-02-25T18:30:02.488-08:002012-02-25T18:30:02.488-08:00Hey Lori - I was exploring the list and discovered...Hey Lori - I was exploring the list and discovered the Kindle ebook of Delicious was only $3.99, so we now own it. *grin*Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151587271439513617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-56842422839349160342012-02-25T18:17:07.547-08:002012-02-25T18:17:07.547-08:00Did some googling and came up with this:

The heroine was a cook for a guy that died and his heir came and was from her past (heh). But I remembered the review said food figured largely. I just cant remember how. Nor can Iremember the title or any names, including the author's.<br /><br />Hope this helps. ;-DCarolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151587271439513617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-19183683803951095322012-02-24T10:17:13.362-08:002012-02-24T10:17:13.362-08:00Lea, if you didn't like it then I doubt I woul...Lea, if you didn't like it then I doubt I would. I've read soe wonderful non fiction like Julia Child and Anthony Bourdain and Jesine Bullock.<br /><br />In fiction there's been some classics but not so much contemp. I'd just love something where food is important and not just being used to be trendy.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603287422043758944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-29675807947646043162012-02-23T18:16:29.387-08:002012-02-23T18:16:29.387-08:00I have one that I thought was perfect - then I rea...I have one that I thought was perfect - then I read it.<br /><br />http://www.allenandunwin.com/default.aspx?page=94&book=9781741756074<br /><br />To be honest, it's not worth the price of sending it to you or I would have by now. It started off ok and there are a few funny bits but then it just gets beyond stupid.<br /><br />Things like barely being out of the womb but able to cook up a feast for the family and shit like that. Seriously.<br /><br />Some of the recipes are odd but sound ok and it makes me wonder if they are legit or not. Still, I won't go there.<br /><br />I think it came as a 'because u bought this, we'll give you that free' kind of thing. I can't imagine I paid for it - I hope not lol.<br /><br />Then again, it might be something you like so I don't know. You want I should type out a chapter for you and see if it's worth sending or not?<br /><br />Other than that, the only one I can think of off hand that I loved was 'Like water for chocolate'. Great story and recipes that made my tastebuds quiver at the very thought.Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745608296468827669noreply@blogger.com
