This is a gem of a tale! Right away I was invested in the Woodward sisters, and I really enjoyed how the narrative volleyed between Jane and Callum, the unrecognized hero of the hour. Jane simply had to work past the stars in her eyes for the too-good-to-be-true louse of a player who caught her attention and then her heart, just like in Sense and Sensibility. I liked the entrepreneural spirit Jane and her sister shared, and the delicious-sounding recipes weaved into the tale were a fun touch. Besides, Callum is made from the hero stuff we romance lovers dream of. Enthusiastically recommended at 4.5 stars!
