Since November 2009American Saturday News: The Love Goddess’ Cooking School
October 9th, 2010 by Leah
Melissa Senate’s latest Chick Lit release, The Love Goddess’ Cooking School is out later this month on October 26th and sounds really great! I’ve never read any of Melissa’s books, but I’d definitely pick this one up if I had the chance, because it sounds like my kind of read! I quite like the cover too, and I’m usually a bit hit and miss with US covers but this one seems to sum up the book nicely!
Camilla’s Cucinotta: Italian Cooking Classes. Fresh take-home pastas & sauces dailyBenvenuti! (Welcome!)
Holly Maguire’s grandmother Camilla was the Love Goddess of Blue Crab Island, Maine—a Milanese fortune-teller who could predict the right man for you, and whose Italian cooking was rumored to save marriages. Holly has been waiting years for her unlikely fortune: her true love will like sa cordula, an unappetizing old-world delicacy. But Holly can’t make a decent marinara sauce, let alone sa cordula. Maybe that’s why the man she hopes to marry breaks her heart. So when Holly inherits Camilla’s Cucinotta, she’s determined to forget about fortunes and love and become an Italian cooking teacher worthy of her grandmother’s legacy.
But Holly’s four students are seeking much more than how to make Camilla’s chicken alla Milanese. Simon, a single father, hopes to cook his way back into his daughter’s heart. Juliet, Holly’s childhood friend, hides a painful secret. Tamara, a serial dater, can’t find the love she longs for. And twelve-year-old Mia thinks learning to cook will stop her dad, Liam, from marrying his phony lasagna-queen girlfriend. As the class gathers each week, adding Camilla’s essential ingredients of wishes and memories in every pot and pan, unexpected friendships and romances are formed—and tested. Especially when Holly falls hard for Liam . . . and learns a thing or two about finding her own recipe for happiness.

Hi, I’m not sure of this book. It sounds okay, but not sure if i’d go out by way to actually buy it. I’d tend to borrow this one from the library rather than buy it.
I really like the author, so far the books i have read have been great. The blurb sounds really good, so i’ll probably get it on kindle.
Intertesting read but its got nothing to to say about cookng schools.
