One woman is not happy in her relationship, not happy at her job and can't figure out who to change it all. So after the relationship falls apart and the job is gone, she heads to Italy to find a new balance in her life. With kitchens in Manhattan and Italy at the center, food is a major character in the book and this author nailed the descriptions of each dish and made me quite hungry while reading!
I fell in love with Georgia and wanted to become her friend which makes me fall deeper into any book - a connection the characters is key in my book. Although there is heartache and relationships in this book, it was refreshing to have the woman try to find the balance in her life within herself instead of depending on others for it.
A wonderful piece of women's fiction that will make you want to visit both Italy and New York for the food and the atmosphere. A strong woman at the center and a depth to the story makes this book a piece of women's fiction in my mind and one worth picking up.

Enjoyed this book a lot. If you like all things Italian, are a foodie (of any level), and have had struggles in decision making, you will like this book also.
Friendships, love interests, heartbreak, incredible cooking, and the Italian countryside...it's all here, The story line is unique and the plot is full of decisions big and small and the opportunities that life may or may not offer. I like the personalities in this book and the ups and downs along with the challenges of restaurant and the food world. Enjoyable and satisfying quick read.
