The New York Times bestselling author of Always Something There to Remind Me delivers a hilarious and heartfelt new novel about a personal chef and her search for true love Gemma Craig has spent her career as a private chef taking care of other people. From Lex, the fussy department store owner straight out of a movie from the thirties; to grossly overweight Willa, who must radically change her eating habits or die; to the strange Oleksei family, with a constant parade of mysterious people coming and going; to the hideously demanding A ngela who is “allergic to everything†and foists her tastes on her hapless family; to the man Gemma thinks of only as “Mr. Tuesday†because theyve never met. Everyone relies on Gemma, even while she goes home alone each night and feasts on cereal and quick meals. But when life takes an unexpected turn on a road Gemma always thought was straight and narrow, she must face her past and learn to move on in ways she never imagined.
