About this listen
The second book in New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Shirley Jump's irresistible Sweet and Savory Romances. Maria Pagliano is a woman on a diet mission. Desperate to drop a dress size before her reunion, she joins the Chubby Chums. But waiting next door is sexy, tempting chef and restaurateur Dante Del Rosso. Dante is all wrong for Maria. He tastes and smells like all the foods she has stricken from her diet. But Maria's love for her singing grandfather, cantankerous grandmother, and matchmaking mother all fill a long-empty spot in Dante's heart. He sets out to win her, using every weapon he has, including his tortellini. He's offering her the very thing she's got no willpower to resist - desire on a plate.
Special bonus material: Recipes written by the characters inside! The original version of this book was published in 2005, and titled as The Devil Served Tortellini.

Story
Finley McGowan is determined that the niece she’s raising will always feel loved and wanted. Unlike how she felt after her mom left to pursue a dream of stardom, and when the grandfather who was left to raise them abandoned her and her sister, Sloane, when they needed him most. Finley reacted to her chaotic childhood by walking the straight and narrow—nose down, work hard, follow the rules.

Jase Foster is as loyal and committed as a friend can get - when it comes to the guys, that is. But with women he keeps it casual and experiences what one would call a "high turnover rate". Emily Klein is beautiful and confident...and has mile-long legs that have been strutting in and out of Jase's life since adolescence, leaving a wake of destruction. As they get paired up time after time as the best man and maid of honor in the upcoming nuptials of all of their best friends, Emily and Jase find their mutual resentment simmering just beneath the surface.

It's been over a decade since Nora left her hometown of Scupper Island, Maine, and very seldom looked back. She's carved out a successful life in Boston, where no one knows her as the awkward girl with the delinquent sister and the dad who left, but a not-as-dramatic-as-it-sounds brush with death has her taking stock of her life. Inspired to reconnect with her prickly mother and snarky teenage niece, Nora returns home for the summer, where she's forced to face the people she's spent the last ten years trying to avoid.

Story
Lumi Santana is a chef with the gift of synesthesia - she can perceive a person’s emotions just by tasting their cooking. Despite being raised by a single mother who taught her that dreams and true love were silly fairy tales, she decides to take a chance and puts her heart and savings into opening a fusion restaurant in Inwood, Manhattan. The restaurant offers a mix of the Dominican cuisine she grew up with and other world cuisines that have been a source of culinary inspiration to her.

Eating disorder trigger warning, but enjoyed story
This story is very cute, but be aware that if you have any history of eating disorder you may be triggered.
I don’t think the author intended this at all.
Again, I recommend this book, but make sure you are stable in your eating disorder recovery

Good book, well written
The book was good, the performance a little stilted with female voices. I did enjoy the twists of the story, although the diet theme was a bit overdone. An enjoyable read.

Good story
I loved the story the only thing I didn't like was a woman that is more than a size 8 thinks she needs to be smaller but I'm glad they showed it differently.

Low Self Esteem
Will this is a true issue - I never felt like Maria dealt with it. As for Damian - he was perfect and she abused his love for her. He desired so much better.

Another Fat Story
This is just another story about a full figured woman (Maria) who hates her own body until a man (Dante) comes along & convinces her that she is actually attractive. Yuck!
Wake up ladies; if you aren't happy with your weight, do something about it. Happy, healthy women come in different shapes and sizes.
Insecure women with low self esteem are not that interesting or a good candidate for a successful relationship.

I am torn!
I am torn over this book. On the one hand it's clever and funny and engaging. The main characters are likable and funny. However, on the other hand, the support group of "chubby chums" is somewhat offensive. They are treated and act like they are children. The people in the group are over-stereotyped images of overweight people. It just seems like this is the author's way of poking fun at obese people. This support group scenes were cringe worthy. It's hard to listen to at times, while other times I'm really enjoying the story. So, there's the rub.
