About this listen
In downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Lou works tirelessly to build her beloved yet struggling French restaurant, Luella's, into a success. She cheerfully balances her demanding business and even more demanding fiancé...until the morning she discovers him in the buff - with an intern.
Witty yet gruff British transplant Al is keeping himself employed and entertained by writing scathing reviews of local restaurants in the Milwaukee newspaper under a pseudonym. When an anonymous tip sends him to Luella's, little does he know that he's arrived on the worst day of the chef's life. The review practically writes itself: underdone fish, scorched sauce, distracted service - he unleashes his worst.
The day that Al's mean-spirited review of Luella's runs, Lou and Al cross paths in a pub. As they chat, Al playfully challenges Lou to show him the best of Milwaukee, and she's game - but only if they never discuss work, which Al readily agrees to. As they explore the city's local delicacies and their mutual attraction, Lou's restaurant faces closure, while Al's column gains popularity. It's only a matter of time before the two fall in love...but when the truth comes out, can Lou overlook the past to chase her future?

Margo Everson sees the call out for the cookbook club and knows she’s found her people. Recently dumped by her self-absorbed husband, who frankly isn’t much of a loss, she has little to show for her marriage but his "parting gift"—a dilapidated old farm house—and a collection of well-loved cookbooks. Aja Alexander just hopes her newfound friends won’t notice that that every time she looks at food, she gets queasy. It’s hard hiding a pregnancy, especially one she can’t bring herself to share with her wealthy boyfriend and his snooty mother.

Story
For Sabrina Monroe, moving back home to the Wisconsin Dells - the self-described Waterpark Capital of the World - means returning to the Monroe family curse: The women in her family can see spirits who come to them for help with unfinished business. But Sabrina's always redirected the needy spirits to her mom, who's much better suited for the job. The one exception has always been Molly, a bubbly rom-com loving ghost, who stuck by Sabrina's side all through her lonely childhood.

A little predictable but an enjoyable story for foodies
This was a sweet break from some of the more suspenseful and tragedy based fiction that is popular now. The performance was excellent and easy to listen to.

Fun and oh so sweet!
I really enjoyed this romance that is all the more realistic for how the two come together, become friends with their feelings growing over time. Not a perfect book but one I enjoyed enough to listen to in just two sittings.

Read it, don’t listen!
I really wish I would have read this book instead of listening to it. The story was very enjoyable & I really liked the characters, but the narrator was horrible. Her voice was flat & boring, she mispronounced words, & her attempt at a male British accent & elderly Germans was abominable… so painful. I should’ve quit the audible & just read the book. I stuck with it because I enjoyed the story, & as someone who lives in Milwaukee, I loved the familiarity of all the places referenced. Don’t miss the book, but read it, don’t listen.

Cute story, terrible narrator
This is a good comfort read, but the narrator was very monotone and mispronounced many words.

Such a yummy read!
I was extremely impressed by this book. I'm not sure what I expected going in, I've read plenty of positive reviews before picking it up, but for a debut novel, Reichert just blew me away.
Such a cute storyline and incredible writing in this book. Set in Milwaukee, the city and all of the things it has to offer provided much of the purpose of the plot, and I loved every bit of it. There aren't many things I miss about living up north, but Summerfest and cream puffs and cheese curds would show up on the list of things I miss every once in a while (when I forget about the cold and the snow). Milwaukee does have such great character, I loved how Reichert chose to use it in such a way to mold this story.
I loved Lou and after a while I loved Al too, as well as the conflict that brings them together or the one that pushes them apart. I loved the details in the supporting characters - Sue and Harley and the elderly German couple who were regulars at Lou's restaurant. They truly heightened the story and really tied it together nicely. The descriptions of the food were mouth-watering. I have never once wanted to try coconut cake until this book. That recipe sounds delicious and I may just have to give it a shot.
This is a story about fighting for your dreams, never settling, finding the good in things, friendship, love and second chances. You won't be disappointed if you give this one a read.
The narrator also did a great job at bringing the characters to life.

I loved this book!
This was a nice love story, and while it was predictable, I loved the book. Narration was really good, too.

Come for the charming love story; stay for the love letter to Milwaukee
This book held my hand and made me smile, sniffle a little and ultimately feel satisfied and content. It reminded me of summer nights listening to music, happy afternoons sampling Sprecher sodas and beers, and the joy of being hand in hand with someone special.

sweet cute
it's nice to have some romantic stories without all the cursing and sexual innuendos. I wish they had more stories like that
