Recipe for Second Chances by Ali Rosen

funny lighthearted medium-paced

4.25

A debut novel I couldn't put down 🥰 I felt like I was touring Italy as I was reading a recipe for Second Chances" as Stella and Samuel are forced together at their best friends' wedding in the Italian countryside.  The scenes were so vivid and beautifully written I felt like I took a vacation as I watched Stella and Samual fall back in love in this second chance romance.

Did I occasionally want to punch both main characters in the face for their stupidity at times?  ~Yes BUT I think that's a sign of a good author if they can make you feel such strong emotions for their characters 🤣

Full of adorable meddling from well meaning friends, flash backs and honest conversations this is a must read romance.  The spice is low (🔥🔥/5) but the chemistry is present and really well done.  The ending had me giddy with joy and falling in love with Stella and Samuel 🥰
