Tina's Tasty Tours (The Creative Hearts Sweet Romance Series) Kindle Edition
A determined woman ~ An impossible dream ~ A dose of poison
Spunky Tina Thyme tells her unique story about her life-long dream, survival skills, and passion for creating delicious, original recipes.
In the beginning, she relocates to L.A., determined to own a restaurant, but the odds are stacked against her. She ends up waiting tables at the Punk Patio with a punk-rocker chef. Here she learns how deceiving looks can be.
When an unexpected situation arises, Tina moves to a new job at a 1960s diner where the lecherous restaurateur requires her to resemble Marilyn Monroe. She quit the night the police were called.
Tina knows she must increase her income and reinvent herself to survive in Lala Land. After a string of false starts, she lands a temporary job as a food critic. “I read your sample restaurant review. I like your style. You’re hired,” said the Editor-in-Chief.
Join Tina in this light-hearted, quirky, romantic comedy as she fights for her dreams and discovers that sometimes the greatest adventure lies in taking the unexpected path.
