From the New York Times bestselling author of Shoe Addicts
Anonymous and Always Something There to Remind Me comes a
delicious new novel about the search for true love and all
the ingredients that go into it. As far as Gemma is concerned, her days of dating are over.
In fact, it’s her job to cater other peoples’ dates, and
that’s just fine by her. At thirty-seven, she has her own
business, working as a private chef, and her life feels full
and secure. She’s got six steady clients that keep her hands
full. There’s Lex, the fussy but fabulous department store owner
who loves Oysters Rockefeller and 1950s comfort food; Willa,
who needs to lose weight under doctor’s orders but still
believes butter makes everything better; a colorful family
who may or may not be part of the Russian mob; an
überwealthy Georgetown family; the picture-perfect Van
Houghtens, whose matriarch is “allergic to everything”; and
finally, a man she calls “Mr. Tuesday,” whom she has never
met but who she is strangely drawn to. For Gemma, cooking is predictable. Recipes are certain. Use
good ingredients, follow the directions, and you are assured
success. Life, on the other hand, is full of variables. So
when Gemma’s takes an unexpected turn on a road she always
thought was straight and narrow, she must face her past and
move on in ways she never would have imagined. Because
sometimes in life, all you need is a little hope, a lot of
courage, and---oh yes---butter.
