Deep Dish by Mary Kay Andrews


Deep Dish
by Mary Kay Andrews
What a delectable treat 'Deep Dish' is! I have been eagerly awaiting this newest release by Mary Kay Andrews and was not in the least bit disappointed! With the author's wonderful sense of humor and southern style, this is yet another winner!
Thow together two sassy and ambitious people, a contest of talent and wits to win a cooking show and tons of laughs and you have a recipe for a delightful book.
Gina Foxton has worked hard her whole and has finally established herself on a public television cooking show - Fresh Start. However, her producer - who just happens to also be her boyfriend, decides to embark in a little tryst with the boss's wife. This in turn gets Fresh Start the boot from the boss and Gina is looking at a future of unemployment and despair.
Tate Moody is as all around outdoorsman - he can hunt, fish, kill and cook up any animal and fish that comes his way. Tate has his own show Vittles, where he displays his talents to a vast array of fans. He is ready to move onto bigger and better things, such as his own national cooking show.
The Cooking Channel is in search of the newest big hit and they have their eyes set on both Gina and Tate. Unable to pick which one to make into a shining star, the execs of The Cooking Channel decide to engage Gina and Tate in a reality based contest - in the middle of nowhere. There will be three different challenges over three days to see who can cook up the most memorable meals - but both face obsticles that will not make this easy.
While trying to make their meals sizzle, Gina and Tate explore a bit of personal heat. Can they stir up a recipe for a lasting love, or will the sizzle fizzle as the contest heats up?
The characters in 'Deep Dish' are perfect and so much fun. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a delightful read.
