This series continues to entrance me. There’s little conflict, little angst, and low heat. These are not my normal reading preferences, lol
But these 'slice of life in New Orleans' books get under my skin in the best way. And the food described continues to be completely mouth-watering.

I liked this even though I felt like it was a little abrupt in the conclusion. This story features Tonya, an experienced 50-year old chef and best friend to Hannah from Book 1 in The Innkeepers series, who moves to New Orleans to start a restaurant. There, she meets 46-year-old Gage, who’s a broody musician cum chef cum music teacher and there are sparks. But they both have a million reasons to be mistrustful of love and relationships.
For me, I thought this was a very even-keeled book. Like a lot of this author’s work, it’s neither extremely page turning nor boring. I felt entertained by this and it was a great, undemanding book for getting ready and unready and listening right before bed. I enjoyed this even though Tonya had some inconsistencies in her character and Gage sometimes was borderline problematic in terms of his relationship with his admittedly toxic ex-wife. I’m looking forward to the rest of this series.
