Cooking up Trouble is the second book in the Brides of Blossom, Texas series. Yes each book can be read as a stand alone but let me say i would highly recommend reading all the books. In this book we get to explore the chemistry of Hog Heaven Hunk Holt Collins and Kayla Burton Of Falling Waters Bakery. I love reading books that are based in the state i live in and this one kept me reading and thinking about how I wished they were real and close by. The story line has just the right amount of snap, crackle and pop that make it believable and our author's descriptions of the Castle, wedding and oh the food. YUMMY.

This clean, sweet, enemies (very briefly) to lovers romance was my first book by Lenora Worth. The two main characters, Kayla and Holt, are really well written, so that I cared about them, and wanted them to get their HEA, which is important to me when reading a book like this. There was no major angst involved, just baggage from break ups they had both gone through, and in Kayla's case, this had left her wary and distrustful and unable to fully trust Holt. The relationship between Holt and Kayla is built well, with no steam. Apart from the romance aspect, I also really liked how the friendship between Kayla and her two best friends was portrayed, and despite not having read the first book, these friendships were really well developed and I got a feel for how important their friendship has been to them all. In fact, the friendships and community built into this book are part of its appeal, along with the setting, Blossom, Texas, sounds like a lovely place to live. I will definitely be reading the first book now to get Sarina's story and looking out for the next book which will hopefully be Mona's. I want to read her HEA!

Cooking Up Trouble is book number two in the Brides of Blossom, Texas series byLenora Worth. This is Holt Collins and Kayla Burton’s story. A sweet romance with likable characters. At times they made me want to knock some sense into them. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
