About this listen

A funny, heartwarming story about a feisty group of women who shake, spice, and heat things up with a “recipe” book for romance, from the bestselling author of Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons.

Newly installed at All Souls Lutheran, Mallory “Pastor Pete” Peterson soon realizes that her church isn’t merely going through turbulent waters, but is a sinking ship. With the help of five loyal members of the Naomi Circle, the young, bold minister brainstorms fundraising ideas. They all agree that the usual recipe book won’t add much to the parish coffers, but maybe one with all the ingredients on how to heat up relationships rather than casseroles will…

Pastor Pete has her doubts about the project, but it turns out the group of postmenopausal women has a lot to say on the subject of romance. While Charlene, the youngest member at fifty-two, struggles with the assignment, baker-extraordinaire Marlys, elegantly bohemian Bunny, I’m-always-right Velda, and ebullient Edie take up their contributions enthusiastically. After all, their book is really about cooking up love in all its forms.

But not everyone in the congregation is on board with this “scandalous” project. As the voices of opposition grow louder, Pastor Pete and these intrepid women will have to decide how hard they’re willing to fight for this book and the powerful stories within—stories of discovery, softened hearts, and changed lives.

An authentic blast!

It was a real treat to listen to the author talk “Minnesotan” for this book. Fun, touching, memorable.

This is a cute, funny, story about love for all. All ages and all people need to love and be loved. Easy to listen to. The narration is perfect for the region the story takes place!

An absolute treasure!

A book about something said so casually and turns it into the extraordinary. Makes one look at the alphabet and life in a new way. LOVED IT!!

Such a fun adventure into the meaning of LOVE!

Enjoyed this audiobook so much that I listened every spare moment I had. As I do with all of Lorna's books...I will listen again and enjoy it even more the second time because I now know these fabulous characters and don't want to forget them. Lorna's character voices are fabulous...and funny. I laughed many times. Thank you Lorna Landvik for this wonderful medicine for a world that needs to laugh more and to recognize the love we may be ignoring.

Heart Warming

This was a feel-good book, giving hope and perspective about touching taboos and other delicate subjects. But I wonder why the author decided to tell the story herself. While I commend her effort, I believe a professional narrator would have done the book better justice in a more enticing way. Other than that, all that I missed was an epilogue with the ramifications of the project.

Not for Me

My book club choose this book for our summer read. Although a
cute premise, it reminded me of the superficial drama we find ourselves hearing about in our daily life. I felt I wanted to close the characters out vs invite them in. Sorry!

No on Narration

The story had promise, but unfortunately I couldn't finish listening to the narrator. Authors should NOT be allowed to narrate their own stories.
