REVIEW: Delicious by Adrianne Lee

Delicious (Big Sky Pie #2) by Adrianne Lee is the second foodie book in Big Sky Pie series, and this book was just as tasty as the first one. This story is just like Sweet Blueberry Pie, melt in your mouth sweetness with a pinch of the light heartedness. I love how we got to revisit the characters from book 1, got to meet new characters as well, and get a HUGE helping of HEA in the process.

Jane Wilson was hired to be the new pastery chef at Big Sky Pie. This is really her dream job and a stepping stone for her to realize her dreams of moving to Paris, working with some of the finest pastey chefs in the business, and eventually, opening her own shop. Just when things seem to be working out for Jane, her wedding obsessed mother, Rebel shows up with the big announcement that she is re-marrying one of her ex-husbands, Romeo. With memories of her time with Romeo and his son Nick “The Devil” Taziano, Jane will stop at nothing to convince her mom that this is a big mistake. But when Jane finds herself in a hot liplock with the devil himself, and realizes that the two of them will need to work togethter on a ad campaign for Big Sky Pie, she is beginning to wonder if she has bitten off more than she can chew.

Nick Taziano is a workaholic. He doesn’t have time for a serious relationship. When is dad calls telling him that he is about to get re-married to Rebel, all Nick can think about is how Rebel broke his heart, and how Nick had to put up with is stepsister, Jane the Pain. But what do you know, the Pain has blossomed into a beautiful swan and one look, one kiss, one touch does not seem to be enough for Nick. Knowing that he should keep is distance, knowing that the two of them are on different paths in life, personally and professionally, doesn’t seem to register with Nick. Nick and Jane will need to make a choice, give into the feelings that they are both feeling, or run for the hills. But sometimes, when things are too tempting, you just need to go back for more.

What I loved about Nick and Jane is that when they first met, after all of these years, they really had no idea who the other one was, but the connection, the white hot sparks of interest were there. They fought it of course, but like any good book, they keep being pulled together. Like to magnets they dance around the issue, they come together, and push appart, but in the end, they keep coming back for a second helping. I loved the humor of this story. Some of the situations that Nick and Jane find themselves in are laugh out loud funny. I love that we get to revisit the characters from book 1, and that the series is tied together so well. If you are looking for a wonderful summer read, pick up Delicious by Adrianne Lee it will make you hungry for more. I loved this story so much I gave it 5 mouth-watering stars.

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 . . .
