Review of Red Velvet by Suzie Waltner

 

An influential catering job could be the stepping-stone Cassidy Cagle needs to expand her business and reach her dream of owning a bed and breakfast. However, when the source of her high school humiliation steps into the kitchen, all her hard work crumbles like a dry biscuit.

Dissatisfied by the blatant flirting from women only interested in his celebrity status, Seth Mason wants nothing more than to find someone who sees beyond his role in a popular country music band. When yet another social climber corners him at a gathering, he escapes her clutches and inadvertently puts Cassidy’s career in jeopardy.

Hoping for a second chance, Seth comes up with a plan to make amends and solve both their problems. He’ll use his connections to bring her more business while, as his fake girlfriend, she can discourage the unwelcome female advances. As the two spend time together, attraction grows, but deciphering between what’s just an act and what is real becomes impossible. And when Seth’s secrets clash with Cassidy’s stubborn independence, their harmonious future hangs in the balance.

My Review

Another great read by the author. This Christian Contemporary Romance caught my attention from the beginning. The characters were, at times, witty, showed great compassion toward others, had good family relationships, and tried their best to keep God first in their life.

Cassidy caters for a party for Mayor Davis, but someone from a past relationship shows up, chaos ensues, and her dream shatters. Can Cassidy forgive the current hurt but also past ones? The characters had many layers, and descriptions of their surroundings made me feel like I was there. I loved the ending. Highly recommended.

I received a complimentary copy from the author. A positive review is not required, and all opinions are my own.
