A romance between recipesSusan Mallery's "Fool's Gold Cookbook" is nicely put together. I wasn't sure how this work to combine a cookbook with a romance story. I have seen romance books with a few recipes at the end but this is a cookbook with a romance in between the chapters. I am more of a reader than a cook so I read the romance story first and enjoyed it. The characters tell a completely understandable tale and you feel that you are right there with them. Susan has a way to put the reader in the middle of the situation. Can't wait for the next Fool's Gold story! I liked how the recipes are divided into seasons. There are many that I want to try from main course to desserts to drinks! The book just looks great too with nice pics from the recipes. I showed it to a few friends and I am sure they will get the book! I received this book from the author for the purpose of an honest review. I have to say this is the first book (cookbook) that my husband took from me and read through himself. He's getting into grilling and smoking and wanted to see what recipes we could work with for that. He loved the ideas and how we could tweak each to fit our tastes/needs. I loved all the great food, the way the recipes were set up and the short story that I read in a few hours. Overall the book was great. It'll make a great addition to anyone's cookbook library. It'll make a great gift for the Holidays as well, I'd get it now while Harlequin has a $2 coupon (Look on the author's website or Harlequin.com for it). I also plan to get a Kindle copy so I can take it with me when we go on trips/camping. It's the perfect addition to your library whether you cook or not.You'll love the images, the recipes, the story, and the even the feel of the book. *as a side note Target has an edition that includes a few extra recipes/content for the same price*. I highly recommend you pick up this book/cookbook today! You'll love it.
Loved looking through this and also reading the little love story intermingled.
