Escape to the winding cobblestone streets and rolling hills of
Tuscany in this delicious, romantic and charming tale perfect for
fans of Chocolat and Under the Tuscan Stars. Margherita is a
spirited young woman with a passion for cooking. When her heart is
broken in Rome, she returns to her hometown of Roccafitta, a small
Tuscan village filled with lovable eccentrics and beautiful
vineyards. She dreams of saving enough money to reopen her late
mother's restaurant and hopes she may find help from the handsome
stranger in town, Nicola Ravelli. An aloof and ambitious
businessman, Nicola is buying up the village's vineyards and is
also on the lookout for a personal chef. Though the two dislike one
another immediately, Nicola agrees to pay Margherita well for each
delicious meal she prepares to help win over his clients. But with
each new dish, Nicola discovers that he is the one being seduced
and Margherita realizes that she is expressing much more through
her cooking than she cares to admit. A warm-hearted, sensual story
full of eccentric characters, this is a celebration of life and
love - with a distinctly Italian flavour - and of the power of food
to bring people together. *Includes delicious Italian recipes!*
What readers are saying about this book: 'Absolutely superb! I
thoroughly enjoyed this novel from beginning to end; wonderfully
evocative with engaging characters. Margherita was funny, feisty
and endearing whilst Nicola needed time before the reader
appreciated his qualities. Roccafitta came alive with the detailed
descriptions of places and characters, so much so that you could
imagine walking down the street with them, whilst the descriptions
of the food were outstanding. Margherita's love of food, the
process of creating it and the thought behind it was captivating;
you could almost taste the dishes' Linda Wilson, Netgalley reviewer
'Afoodie's treat with the right balance of romantic attraction
mixed in. Definitely yummy' Bharti Chandnani, Netgalley reviewer 'I
was excited to start this book about a romance in Italy. It was a
delightfully quick read, perfectly suited for the beach! The
beautiful descriptions of food throughout the book brought the
characters and dialogue to the next level. A very enjoyable read'
Lora Mueller, Netgalley reviewer
