With its mouthwatering recipes and colourful descriptions of the Italian countryside, this light-hearted romance could almost be non-fiction, but it's really chick lit with a twist. Two young men - one a chef and one a waiter who is pretending to be a chef - are vying for the hand of the same girl. The only drawback to enjoyment could be the frequent use of Italian which requires footnotes to aid the linguistically challenged, but this in no way spoils the story. Not to be read when hungry!
