Miss Delectable
Miss Ann Pearson has spent years learning the difficult art of the professional cook, and jealously guarding her position in the kitchen of the fancy Coventry Club. When Colonel Sir Orion Goddard asks her to take on a young apprentice, Ann would rather refuse. But Orion is respectful, gruffly charming, and looking out for a girl whom others have neglected, and that is a combination Ann cannot resist.
Lingering scandal has taught Orion to make his way without allies or entanglements along the fringes of polite society. Then he meets Ann, who is fierce, passionate, and warm-hearted, and also worth fighting for. If Orion and Ann are to forge a new love, they must first learn to trust each other, and find the courage to overcome old enemies who will do anything to keep the cook and colonel apart!

Really great writing and wonderful book to read - was totally entranced from start to finish!

I loved this tale that exposed a glimpse of life for those between the titled class and the poorer classes. And it brought in glimpses of society at all levels. The characters were complex and the story was entertaining and believable.

Wonderful book. I enjoyed every moment of reading the pages. I had a little bit of trouble identifying the extra characters, but once I got them straight, the rest of the book was great!!

Poorly written. Uncertain if the author is taking up a plot from a previous story. Just a jumbled mess. Almost unreadable

Lovely story, refreshingly not about the ton. Good mystery. Seems like more than one happily at the end.
