"A Very Tasty Read"

Romance Contemporary

Jane Wilson is the chief pie maker for Big Sky Pie and café in Kalispell, Montana, until the owner, Molly McCoy, can return from her heart surgery. The grand opening of the shop was postponed for three months after Molly's surgery.

Jane's mother, Rebel Scott, is having a party and asks Jane to bring some pies. Rebel is also excited to share some big news with her daughter. Jane and her pies arrive at the condo on Flat Head Lake the same time as Nick Taziano, a good-looking man that Jane shares a past with. Jane's mother was married to Nick's father years ago, and the children made life miserable for each other and their respective parent. The best is yet to come, though. This party is to announce Rebel's and Romeo's engagement. Jane is too cowardly to stay; she pushes her pies on a table, and runs out.

Jane cannot remember one good thing about her life with the Taziano men; Nick only remembers that Jane could really be a pain, but Rebel was very good to him. However, he remembers how torn up his father was after the divorce and blames this on Rebel. Jane is convinced that Romeo stole her mom from Eddie Wilson, Jane's dad, and she still resents the man.

In spite of their childhood differences Jan and Nick are attracted to each other and to a common cause: break up the engagement asap!

It seems like everyone in Kalispell turns out for the grand opening of Big Sky Pie. When Rebel and Eddie see each other, they are on very good terms. Jane doesn't understand this until Eddie explains that his and Rebel's divorce was mutual, and Rebel didn't meet Romeo until after the decree was final.

DELICIOUS is a tasty read with well-crafted characters and several entertaining subplots. Adrianna Lee is very talented at creating smart settings and dialogue. This second installment in the Big Sky Pie series is as rich and scrumptious as each pie of the week at Big Sky Pie cafe.

SUMMARY

Workaholic Nick Taziano is the proud owner of a successful marketing company in Montana. But his career takes a backseat when he learns his dad plans to remarry his ex. Nick fears she'll break his heart . . . again. And he doesn't like being reunited with her obnoxious daughter-until the all-grown-up beauty kisses him at the engagement party. The kiss might be a mistake, but once he tastes Jane's lips, nothing-not even her famous blueberry pie-compares.

A promising chef at Big Sky Pie, Jane Wilson never, ever wanted to see Nick Taziano again, but he's just been hired to do the pie shop's marketing. How's a girl supposed to bake the best pastries in town when he's a constant reminder of their steamy chemistry? His chocolate eyes and sexy dimples heat up the kitchen-and every part of her body. Jane has no room for a man in her life, yet sometimes the most delicious dishes don't follow the recipe . . .
