Cookin'
for Love
A Novel with Recipes
by Sharon Boorstin
When cookbook author Miriam Levy's best friend, Kate McGrath, calls and asks Miriam to
accompany her on a trip to Malaysia to reconnect with an old lover, Miriam says absolutely
not! Not only does Miriam find Malaysia to be a strange and potentially dangerous destination,
but she is happy to stay home with her husband now that they've become empty-nesters.
Or is she? Pushed to the limit by the feeling that all the romance and tenderness is gone
from her marriage, Miriam packs her bags and jets to Malaysia with Kate.
What follows is a decadent romp complete with danger, adventure, passion, adultery and
discovery. As Kate frolics with her now-married college flame, Miriam discovers a companion
of her own. Mysterious and kind Vijay seems to run into Miriam at just the right times.
Is it fate or is it time to head home to her own husband? Whip up some of the scrumptious
recipes in this book and get comfortable. It's a page turner! Where else can you find
such a spicy plot coupled with equally exciting recipes? The book includes recipes such as
"Orgasmic cookies", "Pop-the-question rum cake", and "Love Nest rice pilaf"...to name a few.
This book proves that adventures don't stop just because you're over 40. The memorable
and real characters will take you along for the trip of a lifetime, and perhaps inspire you
to reconnect with your dreams. |
