Holly Maguire's grandmother Camilla was the Love Goddess of Blue Crab Island, Maine--a Milanese fortune-teller who could predict the right man for you, and whose Italian cooking was rumored to save marriages. When Holly inherits Camilla's Cucinotta, she's determined to forget about fortunes and love and become an Italian cooking teacher worthy of her grandmother's legacy.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

cooking and friendship submitted by carr1_e on July 21, 2011, 7:43pm A great book about cooking and friendship. It reminds me a bit of Sarah Addison Allen.

Very satisfying comfort read submitted by klickitat on August 6, 2012, 9:13am A very satisfying comfort read. It's a superior riff on themes explored in The School of Essential Ingredients (which is my way of saying: If you enjoyed Essential Ingredients you'll probably love this book as much or more.)

I enjoyed that the wish fulfillment aspects of this book were tempered with little doses of reality. I.e. Holly may have inherited her earth grandmother's Italian restaurant of awesome but that doesn't mean she can cook worth a damn.
