*I received a free copy of this book through Goodreads First Reads*One big Italian family with a struggling restaurant. A famous chef looking to up his celebrity status by moving into tv. Add in a spoonful of drama and a heaping scoop of sexual tension and you will "Feel the Heat".This book was a quick, easy read. The Deluca family restaurant has been struggling since their mother was diagnosed with cancer 2 years ago. While her father cooks at the restaurant, daughter Lili manages it as well as taking care of their family while putting her own dreams on hold. British celebrity chef Jack Kilroy's next venture is to take part in a tv show, which has him in a cookoff against Deluca's top chef. Lili and Jack's first meeting starts off with a bang (literally) and the laughs and drama don't stop until the very end.A very enjoyable read!3.5 stars There is one BIG PROBLEM with this book: YOU GET HUNGRY!!!! Definitely worth the time to read. Meader has a way with words and situations, that keep you interested though out all the book,even though the end is pretty predictable, the twists and turns in the book generally with food that sounds to die for, keep you glued to the book.Funny situations, witty banter, and did I mention food?? It's a very enjoyable read! Jack is a very heavy personality with a lot of magnetism, and with a very busy schedule, but in comes Lili, a completely different girl from which he is accustomed, and turns his live, head, and heart upside down.Lili, trying to come out on top of the whole family disappointment (that's in her head) can't really believe that Jack can actually like her.
