Just One Taste by Lizzy Dent

Food critic Olive is surprised when her estranged father Nicky leaves her his restaurant (named Nicky's) in his will. Olive and Nicky had not spoken in many years, but Nicky was extremely close with his sous chef, Leo Ricci. In addition, Nicky was working on a cookbook when he died and Olive decides she will finish the cookbook with Leo. Completing the book means several weeks spent with Leo in Sicily, Tuscany, and Liguria. The trip starts off tense because Olive has told Leo that she will be selling the restaurant when they get back to London. But as they work together, eating and cooking their way around Italy, it becomes obvious they both have feelings for each other. Is their time together just a fling or something more? Just One Taste is a perfect beach read filled with likeable characters and luscious descriptions of food.
