Review: Summer Desserts

 

Book Review: Summer Desserts, by Nora Roberts, 2 stars

Summer Lyndon is the creator of fabulous desserts, she flies around the world cooking for the rich and famous, always satisfying every expectation. She relishes her freedom but the challenge Blake offers tempts her.

Staying in one place for a whole year will be new for Summer, but she knows the tall, dark and handsome steamroller that is Blake will spice up the experience and, for once, she isn’t sure what the grand finale will be.


Genre: contemporary romance

Publication date: November 2011 (for the current Kindle version)

Mature content: yes

Review: While I've been a Nora Roberts fan since forever, in my opinion Summer Desserts is a waste of time. Not because it's outdated (though it is), but because (1) there is frankly no plot to speak of and (2) the characters are a bunch of egotistical conceited people believing (and acting like) they're better than everyone else. 
 
There were a couple of dialogs that were funny and witty and reminded me of other much better books by this author, hence the 2 start review - but frankly I hand trouble finishing Summer Desserts and I don't recommend it.

 Happy readings!
