Publisher's Summary

A LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST

"The feelings in this one are dialed up so high you almost can’t look at them directly: It would be like staring into the sun... Like Rosie Danan or Kate Clayborn, Barrett has a way of making palpable the full journey of a relationship" –
New York Times

“Simply put,
The Romance Recipe is a treat.” –USA TODAY

Amy Chambers: restaurant owner, micromanager, control freak.

Amy will do anything to revive her ailing restaurant, including hiring a former reality-show finalist with good connections and a lot to prove. But her hopes that Sophie’s skills and celebrity status would bring her restaurant back from the brink of failure are beginning to wane…

Sophie Brunet: grump in the kitchen/sunshine in the streets, took thirty years to figure out she was queer.

Sophie just wants to cook. She doesn’t want to constantly post on social media for her dead-in-the-water reality TV career, she doesn’t want to deal with Amy’s take-charge personality and she doesn’t want to think about what her attraction to her boss might mean…

Then, an opportunity: a new foodie TV show might provide the exposure they need. An uneasy truce is fine for starters, but making their dreams come true means making some personal and painful sacrifices and soon, there’s more than just the restaurant at stake.

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

Three stars

While The Romance Recipe didn’t really do much for me in the way of the narrative, the audio narration performances were great! Natalie Naudus is the queen of audiobooks—especially sapphic stories—so that was to be expected, but I wish she'd performed the whole book herself so there wasn't such a jarring change between perspectives when the narration changed.

It's been nine days since I finished the book and I couldn't even tell you the characters' names, so it hasn't had much staying power in my mind, but if you like foodie romances and sapphic stories this might be a great novel for you.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
