*This book was given to me by the publisher to give an honest review in return*
I hate writing bad reviews but here goes....
I'm sad to say that I didn't really like this book. I want to start with the good things about the book. I did like Diego and thought that he was a nice and hot guy in mind. I liked the foods that were mentioned in this book also a little bit of the storyline. So the bad part... the summary sounded like the book would be really good but then I start reading it and I was kind of disappointed. First of all, there were no page numbers in the book which really annoyed me because I like to put my pages on Goodreads and Insta to tell people how I'm doing. I know it's an arc but still. The story plotline was all over the place. The ending was obvious to me and the pacing was so off. One chapter would go super slow and the next would be super fast that the scene just ends. Some of the main scenes like the main character going to visit her mom was so short that what was the point of it. The author wrote the food a little more detailed then it should have been. I know it's about food but I feel like if you take off the description it could be 150-200 pages. I didn't like the main character, Isa, at all. She started to annoy me when Diego was trying to be nice and all to her but all she cared about was her food. I wish the author involved Isa getting close to her stepmom and putting a conversation between them because I think that would have been an important scene for the book. This is all I have about the book and don't recommend it.
