Synopsis

“A perfectly rendered cast of characters, plenty of mouthwatering moments in the kitchen, and a completely charming small town setting.” —Booklist

Two amazing chefs. Two very different restaurants. One recipe for love.

For single mom Adah Campbell, the executive chef job at a posh restaurant in quaint South Bay, Maine is a dream come true—and the perfect opportunity to start over, far away from a home that’s never felt entirely hers. But fitting in has never been easy, and between a new town, a new boss, and the unexpectedly attractive owner of a rival café, things get off to a rocky start.

Never did free-spirited Beth Summers think she’d still be in Maine. Travel the world gathering delicious recipes and finding friends and lovers? Absolutely. Step in to run her family’s small-town café? Not so much. However, once Beth commits to something, that’s it. Soon, The Yellow House is the hottest spot in town, but Beth’s out of energy—and out of ideas for moving forward.

Until Adah Campbell walks into her life. As sparks fly, both chefs have to decide if they are willing to make sacrifices...or if it’s really too many cooks in the kitchen.

Carina Adores is home to romantic love stories where LGBTQ+ characters find their happily-ever-afters.

Goodreads review by Loek on January 10, 2021

Great read! Leaving everything behind and starting all over again, was the best decision ever. Or not? The past continued to haunt her and there was disaster, both romantic and job related.

Goodreads review by Sam on October 06, 2020

I really enjoyed reading a book with some characters that go against the norm in these types of books. Adah just moved to North Port to be the chef at a new fancy restaurant. She lucked out on her tiny apartment and her landlady who just happens to be the nicest person on earth. Not only did Vanessa......more

Goodreads review by Ansa on January 31, 2022

3,5 - simple but it worked most of the time. I enjoyed the cooking and the sweetness, the lesbian representation of older women, one even had a child. And loved how one of the side characters used they/them pronouns. This was definitely comfy reading but with some religious trauma and too many accen......more
