Romance Historical
In the sumptuous tradition of Chocolat and Captain
Cornell's Mandolin, and already optioned for a major
motion picture, comes a magical tale of romantic passion,
culinary delight—and Italy.
Captain James Gould
arrives in wartime Naples assigned to discourage marriages
between British soldiers and their gorgeous Italian
girlfriends. But the innocent young officer is soon
distracted by an intoxicating young widow who knows her way
around a kitchen...Livia Pertini is creating feasts that
stun the senses with their succulence—ruby-colored San
Marzana tomatoes, glistening anchovies, and delectable new
potatoes encrusted with the black volcanic earth of of
Campania—and James is about to learn that his heart may rank
higher than his orders. For romance can be born of the sweet
and spicy passions of food and love—and time spent in the
kitchen can be as joyful and exciting as the banquet of life
itself!
