Title: Dining with Joy
Series: Lowcountry #3
Author: Rachel Hauck
**Special thanks to Thomas Nelson’s Book Sneeze program for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed are my own.**
My Review:
Although this is a series and I have not yet read the first two volumes, Dining with Joy read well as a standalone. I decided to review this book because I was intrigued by the premise. I love cooking and although I don’t watch TV, I do occasionally watch an episode of Food TV via iTunes.
When the television producers decide she needs a sidekick, Luke is hired. Joy sees this as a win-win situation…He can get her out of cooking.
Ms. Hauck’s witty and dry sense of humor peppers the novel. I found myself chuckling out loud during several pages. To be honest I thought the premise of the novel was a bit unbelievable, yet I still enjoyed this novel very much. I could not believe Joy could continue on without even her producer being the wiser. The beautiful descriptive language, realistic characters, and chuckle-worthy humor kept me turning pages.

Whenever I heard of book that include cooking, my mind quickly goes to Julie & Julia *lol* This sounds like an exceptional read and I love that the author include a lot of humour in it! It has been awhile since last time I read this kind of book. Perhaps I should give it a try =)
