Publisher Description

A sweet and savory romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts, Summer Desserts serves up passion and pleasure when two chefs combine the right ingredients for love.

Decadent dessert designer Summer Lyndon is celebrated around the world for sharing her creations with the wealthy and celebrity sets. So she is intrigued when Blake Cocharan—a respected chef renowned for his cordon bleu—taps her to spend the summer in the restaurant of his luxury Philadelphia hotel to give his menu a makeover. Taking a break from her travels will be just as challenging at developing delectable cuisines, but Summer never expected working so closely with Blake would mean losing her heart to him.

"This is an earlier Nora R. and I prefer her suspense rather than straight up romance. That said, it was still a good book. Nora is Nora and the woman has an undefinable skill of sucking you in and making you read on. I can learn from this veteran writer, and plan to do so."

    " Very interesting Nora Roberts read. Took me a while to get into it but I did really like how self-adsorbed the main characters were with their careers. I do wish their relationship was better developed but all in all I think it's a good summer book! "

    " As cheesy as I expected. I listened to it on audiobook. The narrator was good and keep all the voices even and consistent. "

    " I couldn't get past the smug superiority of both the main characters. I gave it a few chapters, but when I found myself wanting to throw them both off a balcony, or set them on fire with one of those blowtorches they use in a kitchen, I gave up. Arrogant, annoying and frankly uninteresting. Bleh. "

    " This story was okay, I personally just couldn't get into the characters. Not nearly one of my Favorite Nora Roberts books, but it is an earlier book of hers so maybe that is why I was disappointed. "

    " More interest in under the sheet activity than developing a plot or interesting characters. which was pretty predictable. (Having just finished Roberts' Sanctuary, this in contrast was rather a bore) "
