Dishing Up Love by K.D. Robichaux My rating: 5 of 5 stars Note: An ARC was provided generously in exchange for an honest review. GOd this novel! This novel made my whole damn week, and I couldn't stop smiling afterwards. Damn, I miss Curtis and Erin so much already..

But luckily, the end made all the difference to my original rating. The end -explaining everything confusing to the reader, adding a nice little bow to summarise and tie it up all just right. Really loved the end for those reasons. It is a truly complex and emotionally mind boggling read, but if you're the right audience for it, it will be worth it. Enjoy, if you rea...
