The Story
Love From Scratch synopsis from the publisher:
This summer, Reese Camden is trading sweet tea and Southern hospitality for cold brew and crisp coastal air. She’s landed her dream marketing internship at Friends of Flavor, a wildly popular cooking channel in Seattle. The only problem? Benny Beneventi, the relentlessly charming, backwards-baseball-cap-wearing culinary intern–and her main competition for the fall job.
Reese’s plan to keep work a No Feelings Zone crumbles like a day-old muffin when she and Benny are thrown together for a video shoot that goes viral, making them the internet’s newest ship. Audiences are hungry for more, and their bosses at Friends of Flavor are happy to deliver. Soon Reese and Benny are in an all-out food war, churning homemade ice cream, twisting soft pretzels, breaking eggs in an omelet showdown–while hundreds of thousands of viewers watch.
Reese can’t deny the chemistry between her and Benny. But the more their rivalry heats up, the harder it is to keep love on the back burner…

Book Review: Love From Scratch
Love From Scratch is a sweet romance with an adorable set up of two teen interns vying for the same job opportunity.
Without a doubt a book with romance and a premise about food, I’m in. And this book is filled with yummy food. Think Food Network meets British Bake Off (amateur style), but not too cutthroat, because Reese Camden’s love interest is all in, when it comes to a relationship. Love From Scratch is a delight. Readers will experience the two main characters fall for each other as they compete while hosting a food show.
The book is a great mix of banter and baking and will have romance readers ready to sample, then quickly eat up, Love From Scratch from beginning to end.
Happy Reading ~ Cece
