This book was exactly what I needed this weekend. I had just finished a nonfictio book on poison and needed a palate cleanser. Angelina's Bachelors fit the bill perfectly. A fun fast novel that didn't need anything from me.
One of the most delightful and charming books I've read this year. Everyone I've recommended this book to has fallen in love with Angelina and her seven bachelors. How a young widow captures the neighborhood fellows with her creative cooking and saves her own sanity in the meantime. A must read for romance, light fiction fans and cookbook fanatics (yum - the recipes are luscious..)
Young widow begins cooking for neighborhood bachelor to make ends meet...recipes.
