Description
Cram (The Muse of Fire) serves up a deliciously inspiring romance...Loaded with wit and charm, Cram's bighearted romance successfully balances unassuming characters and raw passions. This fabulous jaunt through the City of Light will leave readers breathless and longing for more from Cram. - Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
Discover love in all its flavors in this fun, food-infused romp through Paris that is as crisp, sweet, and smooth as the perfect macaron.
Paris may be for lovers, but cookbook author Genna McGraw is definitely not looking for love. She's looking for escape and she's looking for a good runny Brie to pair with a smooth Bordeaux. Where better than Paris?
In Love Among the Recipes, Genna goes to the City of Light to get away from her husband and write a "crossover cookbook/guidebook" that matches Parisian sights such as the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre with recipes for bistro-style French dishes. She also dabbles in romance with dishy French lawyer Pierre Leblanc and makes friends at her French class with Colorado transplant Marsha Renfrew and her snooty English boyfriend.
And then there's big, blunt Bill Turner from Australia. Does he really eat crocodile steaks for tea?
But when Genna's family crashes her new life in Paris, a crisis forces her to choose how she wants to live. Will she have the courage to embrace an uncertain future and risk losing everything?
