Will Abby and Jason do what they set out to do?
Abby Manning
Abby Manning is the manager of Flutterby Inn of Butterfly Harbor. She is a hilarious character in that besides knowing that she isn't that great in the kitchen, she still tries to make something in it. Abby makes decisions without thinking them through or attempts to do a shortcut that ends badly. She means well, but that doesn't make her a good cook.
What I like about Abby is that she loves a lot of people and is trying to put their wellbeing first. Even if that causes her a lot of stress, another thing that I like about her is that despite knowing that she isn't useful in the kitchen, she still decides to enter a competition where it matters that she is good in the kitchen. Never give up.
Jason Corwin
Jason Corwin is a chef that is hiding out in Abby's inn. He gets talked into helping her with the competition, and Jason starts to see that living in the small town isn't quite as bad as he thought it would be. Jason is a charming man when he starts to open up to people. He does love to cook but lost his way after his twin brother died.
What I like about Jason is that yes, he may seem like a jerk at first, but he is trying to adjust to something. Another thing that I like about Jason is that he seems to be settling into small-town life without even realizing that he is.
Five Stars
Recipe for Redemption by Anna J. Stewart is one of the earlier books in the series called Butterfly Harbor, and it became one of my favorites. Ms. Stewart has the knack of creating a story that hooks the reader in and has them wanting to know what happens until the very end. I love stories like that, and especially ones that have a happy ending. I also wanted to read this book before seeing the movie so that I can be able to compare the two.
I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to everyone that loves sweet romances.
Look for the movie adaption on UPtv
