In this hilarious, insightful new novel from the author of A Second Bite at the Apple, a cookbook ghostwriter finds that she's bitten off more than she can chew... When Kelly Madigan is offered a job abroad right after reading a letter from her late mother urging her to take more risks, she sees it as a sign. Kelly's new ghostwriting assignment means moving to London to work for Natasha Spencer-movie star, lifestyle guru, and wife of a promising English politician. As it turns out, Natasha is also selfish, mercurial, and unwilling to let any actual food past her perfect lips. Still, in between testing dozens of kale burgers and developing the perfect chocolate mousse, Kelly is having adventures. Some are glamorous; others, like her attraction to her boss's neglected husband, are veering out of control. Kelly knows there's no foolproof recipe for a happy life. But how will she know if she's gone too far in reaching for what she wants? "An enjoyable read -- perfect holiday fodder." -Irish Country Magazine "A smart and compelling delight for the senses." --Cassandra Dunn, author of The Art of Adapting "A delicious, fast-paced tale of the perils of celebrity and the reward of finding oneself.""--Kristin Harmel, author of The Life Intended "Dana Bate proves she is a foodie fiction writer who is here to stay! I'm a fan for life." --Stacey Ballis, author of Recipe for Disaster
