Tuesday's Pick: Sweet Love

Sweet Love by Sarah Strohmeyer 2008

Looking for something quick and enjoyable to read but with some substance? Then try Sweet Love and you won’t be disappointed. Julie Mueller is a 40-something reporter, a single mom, who never really got over a high school crush on her older brother’s friend Michael. Her mother made sure years ago that Michael would stay away from Julie. Then as a gift Julie is given 3 classes by a famous Boston area chef to learn how to create fancy desserts. Scanning the list of her other classmates, she sees the name Michael Slayton! Sounds simple, but is a second chance ever really that easy? Strohmeyer weaves in relationship issues, including mother-daughter, brother-sister, and friends all into one great read.
