	Her sophomore novel was named a Top Pick by ''Romantic Times Book Review'', in which they said it was a "delicious, delectable and a mouth-watering blend of Cinderella, Top Chef and Like Water for Chocolate, not to mention Chocolat. She dazzles with her intelligent, compelling story and memorable characters. This well-crafted romance places her among the very finest of the next generation of authors."<ref>{{cite web \| url=http://www.rtbookreviews.com/book-review/delicious-2#sthash.711rsI9g.dpuf \| title=Review of Delicious \| publisher=RT Book Reviews \| accessdate=June 10, 2015 \| author=Robin, Kathe}}</ref>

	However, another critic said the "secondary romance is as charmingly rendered as that of the main characters, and the author thoroughly understands the universal appeal of both descriptions of fine cuisine and romantic scenes. Well executed and entertaining, if long for the story it has to tell, Delicious is only slightly marred by an overuse of metaphor.<ref>{{cite web \| url=https://historicalnovelsociety.org/reviews/delicious/ \| title=Review of Delicious \| publisher=Historical Novel Society \| date=August 2008 \| accessdate=June 10, 2015 \| author=Ulett, Eva}}</ref>
