Release Blitz & Review: Taste by Melanie Harlow

 

TASTE, an all-new enemies-to-lovers, small town romantic comedy filled with emotion and laughter from USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling author Melanie Harlow is live now!

The last person on earth I want to be stranded with is Gianni Lupo.

But thanks to the blizzard of the century, I’m trapped in a roadside motel room with that cocky bastard for two straight days.

With one small bed.

Some women might thank Mother Nature for delivering a polar vortex that maroons them with six feet of solid muscle, those deep blue eyes, that sexy grin--but not me. I’ve known Gianni Lupo all my life, and he’s never brought me anything but bad luck and trouble.

So when the tension between us explodes with enough fiery heat to melt my icy defenses, I should have known what the disastrous end result would be--

A big fat plus sign.

After the snow melts, I’m left with more than just memories of the night we spent keeping each other warm. And he might be a rising star on the culinary scene, but he’s got no idea how to handle this bun in the oven.

He says he wants to do the right thing, but I’m not about to spend the rest of my life feeling like someone settled for me.

But just when I think I’ve got Gianni Lupo all figured out, he gives me a taste of the man he could be, of the family we could become, of the way he could love me if I let him.

I’m terrified of falling for him.

But one taste might be all it takes.

Review

I always love going back to Cloverleigh Farms and reading the second generation is so much fun for me. Taste was no exception! 


Gianni and Ellie are childhood frenemies who are now working together and love to tease one another. They both end up stuck in a motel room during a blizzard and of course there is only one bed. To keep things interesting, they decide to play some drinking games which ends up with them finally giving in to the temptation they’ve been ignoring for years. 


Once they give in, they can’t go back and what they thought would be a one time thing. What happens in a blizzard stays in a blizzard…right? 


They go back to work and think their fun is over, only to realise that they are now linked together for the rest of their lives when Ellie ends up pregnant. 


Gianni is used to being the fun guy who doesn’t take anything but his job as a chef seriously, he landed himself on a reality tv show which has made him a little arrogant but he’s charming, sweet and compassionate. 


Ellie is super sassy and has a plan for how her life should be. She’s super career focused and is working hard to get what she wants, but she’s also protecting herself from being hurt. What she really wants is the type of love her parents have. 


They have great chemistry and will give you some angst! This book is full of fun banter between both Ellie and Gianni which I loved. I'd recommend this if you're looking for a quick and fun read. 


I loved going back to this family and being on another journey with them. I wish we saw more of the build up of Gianni’s and Ellie’s relationship and more of them dating but I understand this wasn’t needed for the story.
