First of all, I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank you” to Janice
Thompson and her publisher for sending me a copy of "The Icing on the Cake"
to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really
appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy
available to me.
I
didn’t think she could do it, but she did!
Janice Thompson actually made me like Armando Rossi! In Thompson’s
latest novel, “The Icing on the Cake”, Scarlet, baker extraordinaire and
business neighbor to the Rossis’ Parma John Pizzeria, is our delightful
focus. Armando Rossi is our leading man,
which didn’t appeal to me much since I thought he was a flake in the earlier
Rossi-inhabited novels. But it turns out
that Armando is not as shallow as he appeared previously. Bravo, Ms. Thompson!
I
loved how the author made a plump lady the focal point of this
romantic-comedy. I wasn’t so
enthusiastic when our heroine went on a crash diet, but loved how the author
handled the situation.
As
with all of Ms. Thompson’s novels, there are lots of fun surprises. Her books are uber-entertaining and have deep
life-changing messages. She effortlessly
weaves spirituality into her books and frequently teaches this reader about the
sort of person she would like to be.
Even before I digest the final pages of each book, I am ready to devour
the next story…
