A mix of small town business and life with Hollywood and it was so great! Kat works at her aunt's small bakery in Louisiana and has been living under her thumb with chocolate, vanilla and strawberry as her only options. Her long time best friend Lucas is still in their small town and she may have started seeing him in a new light a more than best friend light.
I loved seeing a small town girl thrust into the Hollywood life and still trying to keep her values through it all. I also adored the budding relationship between Lucas and Kat and seeing the ups and downs from both sides as they both told their view of the story. (Although there was a little too much miscommunication for my liking!) As always, I love the behind the scenes of Hollywood and this one was even better with a Food Network competition show!

Definitely a sweet-tooth worthy surprise!
Alls Fair in Love and Cupcakes had one of those sweet heroes that literally made my hopeless romantic heart go pitter-patter. Lucas loves Kat with a beautiful, sacrificial love that is stuck in limbo between best friends and something more. I couldnt help but ache for him just a little and wish he would walk off the pages of the book and be the boy next door.
Between the combination of sugary cupcake sweetness and kisses that would make any girl swoon, this novel did nothing short of entertain and delight me from beginning to end. Sassy humor with a spunky story line, I cheered for Kat and wanted her to see her dream come trueand yet realize that love was directly in front of herif she would only open up her eyes and her mouth to communicate it! Much can be said for the romantic tension, but Ill leave it at that for now.
Kat is loveable and sweet, though she has her faults and I anxiously counted the pages until she realized its not just about the cupcakes, it has never been just about the cupcakes.
I loved the themes threading through the book and the sacrificial surrender of each of the characters in the end, in the face of their ultimate desire.
All together, thumbs up and I will eagerly wait for more!
This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers and Litfuse for my copy to review.
