When Holly Maguire inherits her grandmother's business and cooking school, she knows she has a lot to learn. After all, her grandmother, Camilla, was famous for her Italian cooking . . . and for her ability to tell fortunes and save marriages. Holly knows she needs to learn how to master Camilla's recipes, especially if she's going to take over Camilla's cooking school students, as well. As for telling fortunes? Forget about that.
But, of course, you can guess that the fortune-telling works its way into the story. The four students who sign up for Holly's cooking lessons are all looking for more than how to make Italian dishes. As the class gathers each week, friendships and romances blossom. This isn't the kind of book I read all the time, but sometimes it's nice to have a . . . nice story. The story is set on an island in Maine, which I find appealing. And, the story, while a little predictable at times, was a nice palate cleanser from the other books I've been reading lately.
