Publisher's summary

Best-selling author Rochelle Alers welcomes listeners back to romantic New Orleans in her warm and sexy series about four very different women embarking on a new adventure.

Sometimes you go in search of a new beginning. Other times, it finds you. Tonya Martin enjoys her job as a professional chef for a Wall Street bank, her East Harlem walk-up, and the freedom to live and love by her own rules - right up until the day she finds herself suddenly downsized. But a spontaneous trip to New Orleans opens up a new opportunity. With time on her hands and her daughter soon graduating college, Tonya has the chance to reach for her own long-cherished dream - opening a restaurant on her friend Hannah's beautiful Garden District estate.

While Hannah and her new husband work on transforming the DuPont House into a luxury inn, Tonya explores local cuisine, taking an apprentice role at famed restaurant Chez Toussaints. Gage Toussaint's mix of Creole, Cajun, and African ancestry is deeply attractive, and the sexy chef clearly wants their friendship to become much more. Drawn to him yet hesitant given their previous unhappy marriages, Tonya wonders if it's too late to leap into love again. Could Gage be just the ingredient she needs to make this delicious new life complete?

I enjoyed the book.

I really enjoyed this book because it focuses on the characters getting to know each other. I love reading books about characters that are older as well. I have lost interest in books that the characters always having sex. I also love the narrator of the book.

Great

I really liked this book and would recommend it. I wish this book was a movie or TV show. I wish the narrator would have made the female and Male voice more distinction. I sometimes couldn't tell who was talking. It had a great storyline and sexual storyline. I really liked this couple being together. I would have liked to heard how her parents and daughter liked him and how his mother and son liked her. I would have liked to heard if the New York friends came down and about their love lives. I also want to know if her daughter was involved with someone. I hope more books are written about those parties.

Boring

Boring plodding story. Sometimes the lead character woman sounded like the lead character man. Does it really matter how many attempts it took to fasten a bracelet? Irrelevant details weighed the story down.

Beautiful love story

Kept me engaged with the story particularly with these strong black women and how despite the blows they were given how they landed on their feet.

Left me hanging

Incomplete ending of storyline. The story held my interest but
left you hanging at the end.
