Celebrity chef Maxwell Cavanagh is known for his multiple Michelin stars, his top-rated Culinary Channel show and most of all his horrible temper. Hadley Beckett is the host of the Culinary Channel’s other top-rated show. Hadley, with her Southern charm makes her viewers feel like family. When Max experiences a very public temper tantrum, he’s sent packing . When he returns, his career is in shambles. His only chance to get back on TV and in the public’s good graces is to work alongside Hadley.
As these two opposite celeb chefs begin to peel away the layers of public persona and reputation, they will not only learn how to get along. Also they will learn how to forgive and even love.
Bethany Turner provides a sense of humor and romance with this thoroughly modern story centered on cooking, enemies, and second chances.
About the Author:
Bethany Turner is the award-winning author of The Secret Life of Sarah Hollenbeck and Wooing Cadie McCaffrey and the director of administration for Rock Springs Church in Southwest Colorado. A former bank executive and a three-time cancer survivor (all before she turned 35), Bethany knows that when God has plans for your life, it doesn’t matter what anyone else has to say. Because of that, she’s chosen to follow his call to write. She lives with her husband and their two sons in Colorado, where she writes for a new generation of readers who crave fiction that tackles the thorny issues of life with humour and insight.
Hadley Beckett’s Next Dish Review:
This is a delicious and sweet story that will make you hungry for more.
Firstly, I enjoyed reading this book and really felt hungry after reading the delicious dishes they make. Moreover, the main characters, Hadley and Max make the story magical. Hadley is adorable in the lead. I also loved Max and thought the author wrote him really well. He comes off as snobbish and arrogant in the beginning. But as you continue reading, you see how he is simply misunderstood. Additionally, I loved the backdrop of using gourmet food as a theme for the story. I am a sous-chef at best in the kitchen, but this story inspired me to spend time concocting new dishes. I also enjoyed the equivalent of Master Chef like game-show to pin the main characters against each other.
Another concept which I liked in the story is how the supporting characters are not so friendly. Other than Stuart, few of the prominent characters like Leo and Marshall have their own agendas. It sad, yet interesting to see how people play with others lives to make a profit, or use for their personal reasons. The author made the story very interesting by including this dynamic.
However, the only aspect that stopped me from giving this a 5 star review was Hadley’s feelings for Max. In the beginning, it felt awkward how Hadley gets infatuated with Max even after the horrible way he treats her. I actually loved them together only after getting to know about Max’s past.
But, overall, I loved reading “Hadley Beckett’s Next Dish” and got me interested to read the author’s previous novels.
I am thrilled to be hosting a spot on the Hadley Beckett’s Next Dish by Bethany Turner Blog Tour hosted by Love Books Tours.
