Top Chicago chef Jessica Robinson is back in Cricket Creek-and making her aunt’s diner the go-to place for comfy gourmet fare. Former major leaguer Ty McKenna is no stranger to Jessica’s cooking. At the Chicago hotspot where she worked, he was a regular-with a different girl on his arm every night. Now he’s the manager for the Cricket Creek Cougars. And convincing the mouthwatering chef that’s a one-woman man may be harder than getting his team ready for opening day.
This is the second book in the Cricket Creek series and while I wasn’t exactly blown away by the first book, I’m interested in reading the second book. I like the idea of a big city chef trying to bring big city eating to a small town and I enjoyed the small town of Cricket Creek in Playing for Keeps. I’m also a sucker for an athlete so I’m looking forward to reading more about Jessica and Ty.
Did anyone read the first book and are they going to try the second one? This book comes out on January 3, 2012 so that day is going to be chock full of fabulous new releases. Mark your calendars, we’re getting more small town goodness in Cricket Creek next month so woo hoo!
This book is available from Signet. You can pre-order it here or here in e-format.
I agree with you; I couldnt finish the first, but am interested in this one.
Happy New Year.
