![]() ![]() The heroine has spunk and a good sense of humor, qualities shared with Lawrence. I liked the heroine Maria and the hero's brother, Lawrence. There were things I really liked about it and things I really disliked about it. My affections wavered throughout this book. ![]() It was an entertaining read for me, but not very memorable. She would have known it but known that Lawrence was her second choice, right? And I guess I was just never really convinced that she actually had always loved him. ![]() As it was, it was all just way too predictable.įinally, I think she should have known about her feelings for him for all those years and not have suddenly discovered that they were for him and not his brother. And if there was so much focus on the dang food, certainly it should have been tied in more to make the story a little more seductive. That leaves a world of sweets from which to contrive some very romantic moments, but there were none, save the bit of sweet on her mouth in one scene. And she was a pastry chef for goodness sakes. Consequently, it did not seem genuine.Īlso, throughout the story I would have preferred to see a little more affection between Maria and Phillip. It seemed incredulous and too impulsive for Phillip. There was just too much said in that public declaration. However, I agree with many of the other reviewers that the ending left a lot to be desired. ![]()
