Great debut! Jordan is trained as a sports writer but ends up writing personal ads for a small paper. She becomes the culinary columnist by default when the current writer has an accident. One small problem....Jordan doesn't cook. She also doesn't eat red meat and her first resturant review is at a local steak house. Madcap adventure ensues when her waiter is found dead near her apartment. Quirky appartment occupants, a hunky stanger and a goldfish make for a quick fun read. 4 stars
