it was amazing

The Coincidence of Coconut Cake is a story of love, mistaken identity, and food--the wonderful food of Wisconsin. Lou is a chef in Milwaukee who owns her own restaurant. Her business is small but growing, until the worst day of her life. A cheating fiance leads to a horrible restaurant review, which leads to the slow demise of her business. On the bright side, she has met a wonderful man, Al, a Brit, to whom she is introducing the wonderful food of Milwaukee. A case of mistaken identity and misunderstanding ensues.

This book is very reminiscent of the mistaken identity situation in the movie You've Got Mail and the premise is intriguing. What if you fall in love with the person who unknowingly caused your demise? We are also introduced to the food scene in Milwaukee. I wanted to immediately end my Weight Watchers food plan and jump on a plane to Milwaukee for some fried cheese curds. I could see, smell, and taste the food that was described. Yum. I have never wanted to visit Milwaukee before, until I read about the food festivals and Milwaukee culture in this book. This is a fun read. I fell in love with the characters and with the food.

Bonnie DeMoss Thanks! I know, right? I love reading about food, even if I can't have it.
