Kim Barnouin is delightful. I couldn't put SKINNY BITCH IN
LOVE down.
Clementine Cooper is a vegan chef. Her big dream is to
open her own café.
Along comes Zach, who is anything but a vegan. He is also
very rich. The two meet when Zach is in the process of
opening a steakhouse. The steakhouse just happens to be
where Clem wanted to open her café. These two are not off
to a
great start.
Kim Barnouin brings humor into the story line when we get to
meet some of the other characters. The story line also
shows the true meaning of friendship, and betrayal.
Clementine decides to start a cooking class. First to help
herself and also to help Sara who is trying to become and
actress, her weight seems to be a slight problem. Here is
where we meet several other characters. Eve who is trying
to get over her ex and Duncan who is trying to do the same.
Clem has always had to fight and work hard for what she
wants. Zach never had to work a day in his life if he
didn't want too. Can these two get over their different live
styles and become a couple?
Kim Barnouin makes you first hate some of the characters and
than really love them. I have to say not being a vegan; I
really would like to have some of the recipes that she
writes about. Kim also writes about how there is give and
take in every relationship.
Kim also has smaller story lines in this book. All the
story line intertwines with each other. Kim does a really
great job of insuring that readers do not lose their
interest in
this story.
If Kim's other books are as good as this one, I will be
spending a lot of time in the bookstore and library looking
for them.
From the coauthor of the phenomenal #1 New York
Times bestselling Skinny Bitch lifestyle
series—a clever, kick-ass novel about friendship, romance,
and making healthy choices both in and out of the
kitchen.
Clementine Cooper is a born vegan, committed in every way
to the healthy lifestyle she was raised with on her father’s
organic farm. But how bad could a little butter be? Bad
enough to get the ambitious and talented sous chef fired
when an influential food critic discovers dairy in Clem’s
butternut squash ravioli with garlic sage sauce. Though she
was sabotaged by a backstabbing coworker, Clem finds
herself unceremoniously blackballed from every vegan
kitchen in L.A.
Like any vegan chef worth her salt, however, Clem knows how
to turn lemons into delicious, cruelty-free lemonade
cupcakes. She launches the Skinny Bitch Cooking School in
hopes of soon opening her own café in an empty space near
her apartment. But on the first day of class, sexy
millionaire restaurateur Zach Jeffries puts a fork in her
idea with his own plans for the space—a steakhouse. Clem is
livid. For a carnivore, Zach is more complicated than she
anticipated. He’s also a very good kisser. But could dating
one of the most eligible bachelors in the city—and a
meat-eater—be as bad for Clem as high-fructose corn syrup?
Shouldn’t she fall instead for a man who seems to be her
perfect match in every way—like Alexander Orr, a very cute,
very sweet vegan chef?
Clem thought she was open-minded, but as she confronts the
challenges of budding entrepreneurship, old rivals,
ex-boyfriends, and tempting suitors, she begins to wonder if
she can ever say “I love you” to a man who hates tofu.
