I received a free ARC from William Morrow, through a Goodreads giveaway. And I loved it. The two characters are well fleshed out for a romance novel, and the chemistry is real. I also enjoyed the GBBO knockoff that the two main characters are the judges for, as well as the set-up for the next novel. The royals were a nice change from the usual depictions.

Update: 2023-04-05: Book was wonderful to read a second time. 

Update: 2024-08-22: Reread the book and found it quite enjoyable.
