Gus Simpson, a widowed 50-year-old-to-be, with 2 grown daughters has her life turned around when the cooking show she hosted for many years brings in a young, beautiful chef to work with Gus. The story is a "coming of life" sort of tale for a controlling woman. Quite lighthearted, but I must say I found it a bit predictable and at some times, too long-winded. I definitely liked The Friday Night Knitting Club better. Sorry Ms. Jacobs!
