Salt+Stilettos by Janet Walden-West Book Review
Book Description (via Goodreads): Sweet Home Alabama meets Top Chef when Miami’s most determined image consultant classes with Samoa’s most uncooperative chef in a race to rebrand him as South Beach’s newest star. Brett Fontaine learned early that appearance matters and not to count on anyone but yourself. Trading her red-dirt roots for the title of Miami’s go-to image consultant, she refuses to let anything jeopardise her new life. Not an influential client-turned-stalker who’s up for parole. Not post-kidnapping panic attacks. Certainly not the stubborn, attention-phobic chef she’s challenged to transform into a celeb in ninety days. Will Te’o can almost taste the dream he sacrificed American Samoa, culture, and cherished family ties for – opening a four star restaurant in the most cut-throat culinary location in North America. Unfortunately, that requires navigating it’s equally cut-throat social scene. When his first public performance ends in a social media spectacle…

“I’m probably not pronouncing it right, but I’ll have the cải xào nấm. And this looks new, the rau muống xào tỏi,” Basil said, glancing up at the menu above the counter in Phan’s Quick Stop.
“What is it?” Oren wondered. “That new one?”
“First time on the menu.” Nang grinned. “Rau muống xào tỏi, which Detective Meredith pronounced fine, is a special water spinach…

Jean Rabe: The Dead of Jerusalem Ridge
Today is a good day.
One of my favorite authors has a new book. You may know her; she’s been a guest on CrimeReaders twice before, and she never disappoints. Jean Rabe (pronounced RAY-bee) is a relative newcomer to the crime fiction community, but that doesn’t mean she’s new to writing. She’s been writing and editing fantasy novels and short stories since 1996 and was a USA Today bestselling fantasy author long before she turned her hand to mysteries.
