Like the books themselves, these dishes and bites, each created to light up the same pleasure center as a deep, slow kiss, transport us to our happy place. Complete with 50 fun and sexy photographs of the finished dishes and vibrant, pink-stained edges, A Romance Reader’s Cookbook will have every avid romance fan falling head over heels.
