Description
Twenty-seven year old Nazeli 'Ellie' Gregorian likes the prestige of her tech marketing job but hates the condescending Patagonia-clad tech bros, her micromanaging boss, and, now, her ex-boyfriend. Who dumped her. At work.
So when Ellie's lovingly overbearing parents send her to attend a conference in Chicago, she's eager for the distraction. While she's there, she just has to help their company, Hagop's Fine Armenian Foods, win a huge award and get a free Superbowl ad. No big deal.
Within minutes at the conference, she meets witty, devil-may-care Vanya Simonian. The sparks fly as they get to know each other - both Armenian! From the Bay Area! Whose families are into food! But their meet-cute is cut short when Ellie's parents recognize Vanya as the daughter of their greatest rivals - the Simonian family whose mission (according to Ellie's mother) is to whitewash and repackage Armenian food for the American health-food crowd.
Sworn as enemies, Ellie and Vanya must play to win the award by the week's end - while keeping their feelings secret . . .
'Taleen Voskuni's novel is one of love, identity, family loyalty and delicious Armenian food. It's funny and sweet and a genuine joy to read.' - Culturefly

Ein kurzweiliger Liebesroman, der nicht nur das Herz, sondern auch den Magen anspricht! Die Mischung aus Kochen, Wettbewerb und Romantik sorgt für eine unterhaltsame Geschichte, die stellenweise an Romeo und Julia erinnert – nur mit weniger Tragik und mehr Teig. Die Misskommunikation zwischen den Protagonistinnen war manchmal etwas anstrengend, aber insgesamt bleibt das Buch charmant und mitreißend. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die gerne romantische Komödien mit kulinarischem Flair genießen. Aber Achtung: Lesen auf eigene Gefahr – Heißhungerattacken sind vorprogrammiert!
