All Stirred Up

This was a cute chick lit story that checked all the boxes, and felt just a bit like a Beth Moran story too, in the sense that it was clean and feel-good. It’s also very much like every other story similar to it, but sometimes that’s ok.

A 30-something single girl runs into an ex from years ago, whom she never got over. He never got over her either, but she broke his heart. He thinks she never really cared about him, while she thinks he’ll never forgive her, even though she had her reasons and crises going on at the time. They’re both chefs, and she manages a family restaurant. He comes back into town, and opens his own restaurant. A malicious journalist pits them against each other, creating tension, until they realize what’s going on and manage to fall back into at least friendship. Complications with those around them ensue, and the old story of what happened between them, as it really was, finally comes to light. Then there’s a happily ever after.

I finished it a few weeks ago and I honestly don’t remember a lot more details than that, because as I said, it’s pretty forgettable. But I enjoyed it while I was listening.

My rating: ****

Language: if there was any, it wasn’t much

Violence: none

Sexual content: a little but not much

Political content: if there was any, it wasn’t much
