Table for Two by Meg Allison

Review by Orange Blossom

Sandra Larsen and David Jenkins have nothing in common—except that their best friends just got married.

Despite their petty bickering and sarcastic barbs, David has fallen head-over-heels for the feisty restaurant critic. He has one week to convince her they should share a permanent table for two.

If you’ve never read a book by Meg Allison, you really should give Table for Two a try. I’ve actually read two other books from this author and once again she delivered a well-written and appealing read.

The heated tension between Sandra and Dave at the onset was conveyed in such a way as to be foreshadowing of the passion that lay just below the surface. As the story progressed and they grew closer to knowing the true person below the prickles, it became apparent how this story would play out; but it was done so masterfully that you just had to keep turning those pages or, in my case, keep pressing the button on my PDA, to see it to the conclusion. I did read this in one sitting and I rarely ever do that.

Table for Two is a sweet read but more than that it is an engaging tale of two people who just needed to take the time to get to know one another. It seems these days most readers are looking for a spicy sci-fi or fantasy book to read. But I must say that this charming contemporary story is one I recommend highly.
