About this listen

After nearly a decade as a sous-chef in a trendy eatery, Jenna is desperate for a change. She’s supported her ex-husband’s dreams for so long that she can’t even remember her own... until she sees a for-lease sign near her parents’ home and envisions her very own cooking store.

Her crash course in business is aided by a streetwise store manager and Jenna’s adoptive mother. But just as she’s gaining a foothold in her new life, in walk her birth parents - aging hippies on a quest to reconnect with their firstborn. Now Jenna must figure out how to reconcile the free-spirited Serenity and Tom with her traditional parents, deal with her feelings for a new love interest, and decide what to do about her ex’s latest outrageous request. In the end, Jenna will find that there is no perfect family, only the people we love.

Voices

The voices that were picked were annoying to listen to. Good story line I enjoyed it.

Didn’t care for narrator

Her voice was too limited for the number of characters, and was too whiny for the main character. She sounded like she was 12.

Great book - didn't care for the narrator.

This is one I would recommend you read instead of listen to. Narrator is very nasally.

Buy a Different Format

Wonderful author, and I love all of her books, including this one. Most of Susan Mallery's books have a fantastic narrator (Tanya Eby), but NOT this one. Buy a different format! I had to stop listening after the first hour and bought the book on kindle. The voice of Violet and the voice of the dad were like nails on a chalkboard BAD.

A culinary buffet of plot turns

I personally love to cook. This novel intrigued me because it has a backdrop of cooking. Jenna, a chef and fresh off a divorce and moves home to open a cooking store. Sounds like a trite story line, but wait. Her birth parents show up unannounced after 32 and never meeting her, her new store manage has her own mini-story line, her birth mother figures prominently and Jenna gets a boyfriend (not a spoiler -- it's a romance book after all). Anyway, all of these characters dodge and weave in a intricate web. The teaser suggests the ex-husband plays a role -- but he is a fleeting part of the story, maybe he gets five minutes total.

Teri Clark Linden does not have a lot of range in her voice to carry off all the characters. She is not awful, but that is all I can say. This book is light on romance, heavy on redemption and light on sex. It's a fun read if not a little long. I give it a cautious thumbs up. One bonus, there are recipes at then end (that is a spoiler).

Easy listening and quite interesting

I think I found this under chic lit which is a bit unfair I think. It's really interesting with the different characters and the way they intertwine. Nothing too heavy but a good listen.
