Book Review: The Key To Love

The only thing Bri Duval loves more than baking petit fours is romance. So much so, she's created her own version of the famous Parisian lovelock wall at her bakery in Story, Kansas. She never expects it to go viral--or for Trek Magazine to send travel writer Gerard Fortier to feature the bakery. He's definitely handsome, but Bri has been holding out for a love story like the one her parents had, and that certainly will not include the love-scorned-and-therefore-love-scorning Gerard.

Just when it seems Bri's bakery is poised for unprecedented success, a series of events threaten not just her business but the pedestal she's kept her parents on all these years. Maybe Gerard is right about romance. Or maybe Bri's recipe just needs to be tweaked.

Novelist Betsy St. Amant invites you to experience this sweet story of how love doesn't always look the way we expect--and maybe that's a good thing.

My thoughts:

I personally love all stories that involve Paris or bakeries, so I knew I would enjoy this book. It's about a women whose mom used to bake in this quaint bakery in a small town, so she doesn't want it to close because it's the only link left to her mother. When a writer comes into town threatening to write a bad review and forcing the bakery to close they become enemies. The relationship plots are semi-predictable, but I enjoyed it because of the subject matters - France, Bakeries, and relationships!
