Delicious by Melissa Schroeder
4.0

This is another book where I read it once, didn’t write the review immediately, and as time went on, I sort of forgot the specifics of it.

So, I read it again.

I remembered liking this the first time, and I did give it four stars, so one would think this would be a more memorable read. Pretty much all I remembered was that this is a brother’s best friend trope.

Allison has been crushing on Ed since she was a teenager. Now that they are grown, Ed, along with Allison’s brother, Harry and their other best friend, Fritz own a bakery. This puts Allison in close proximity of Ed, who has now been noticing Allison. He, of course is worried because she is Harry’s sister.

This book is a short read, so it’s not really necessary for me to delve too heavily into the plot. If I did, it would likely include way too many spoilers.

I quickly figured out why I gave this one four stars.

It’s sweet. All of the characters, from our main couple to their friends are likable. The plot moves quickly, there’s no unnecessary drama. Allison and Ed, once they are together, they are together. No misunderstandings. No OW/OM to contend with. It’s pretty much angst free!

This is a just a fun read.
