<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The "New York Times"-bestselling author delivers a hilarious and heartfelt new novel about a personal chef and her search for true love, who tires of serving so many others and whose life is about to take an unexpected turn.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>From <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Shoe Addicts Anonymous</i> and <i>Always Something There to Remind Me </i>Beth Harbison comes <i>When In Doubt, Add Butter</i>, a scrumptious new novel about food and love, and the longings of the heart... <p/>As far as Gemma is concerned, her days of dating are over. In fact, it's her job to cater other peoples' dates, and that's just fine by her. At thirty-seven, she has her own business, working as a private chef, and her life feels full and secure. She's got six steady clients that keep her hands full. <p/>There's Lex, the fussy but fabulous department store owner who loves Oysters Rockefeller and retro party food; Willa, who needs to lose weight under doctor's orders but still believes butter makes everything better; a colorful family who may or may not be part of the Russian mob; an überwealthy Georgetown family; the picture-perfect Van Houghtens, whose matriarch is allergic to everything; and finally, a man she calls Mr. Tuesday, whom she has never met but to whom she feels a magnetic attraction, in part, due to his taste for full-on comfort food. <p/>For Gemma, cooking is predictable. Recipes are certain. Use good ingredients, follow the directions, and you are assured success. Life, on the other hand, is full of variables. So when Gemma's takes an unexpected turn on a road she always thought was straight and narrow, she must face her past and move on in ways she never would have imagined. Because sometimes in life, all you need is a little hope, a lot of courage, and---oh yes---butter.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Harbison dazzles in her latest, a perfect blend of chick lit and women's fiction...Absolutely first-rate." --<i>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</i> <p/>"A lovable heroine and an engaging cast of eccentrics makes for a cheerful summer read." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"Harbison's airy prose, likable heroine, colorful characters, and engaging story are sure to appeal to fans of Jennifer Weiner, Jane Green, and Emily Giffin.
