BOOK REVIEW: The Food of Love by Anthony Capella
Being a girly girl myself, I am highly strung on reading
romance novels, both of the rom-com types as well as the serious down-to-earth
romance (all the ladies out there, you know what I mean). Reading a novel that
gets your heart a-flutter and butterflies swarming your belly is few and far
between. The Food of Love is one of those novels that will set your heart
alight and passions running high for those lovey-dovey ones out there.
Laura Patterson is studying art history in Rome. She’s
decided that from now on she’ll only go out with a man who can cook.
Tommaso Massi, handsome and silver-tongued, tells Laura that
he’s a chef at one of Italy’s best restaurants. In fact, he’s just a humble
waiter.
His best friend, Bruno, who really is a chef – a brilliant
one – is called upon to help.But when he also falls for Laura the sparks begin
to fly.
This novel relates the importance of honesty in a
relationship and how true love finally wins in the end. It is a lesson in life
for girls not to get duped by what is on the outside but to understand and
treasure matters of the heart. For those who love passion (and a lot of it),
this book is the one for you as decadent, sinful ingredients (I’m talking
strawberries, chocolate and ice cream, got the idea? Ehemm) are used to ignite
passion throughout.
While traipsing through Italian life, its people and its
food, the author strings a memorable novel that you will want to read again and
again.
