Thanks to Ann-Marie Nieves of Get Red PR, I am giving away one copy of The Glass Kitchen.
Book Description:
With THE GLASS KITCHEN, Linda Francis Lee, author of the New York Times bestseller Emily and Einstein, serves up a novel about the courage it takes to follow your heart and be yourself. A true recipe for life.
Portia Cuthcart never intended to leave Texas. Her dream was to run the Glass Kitchen restaurant her grandmother built decades ago. But after a string of betrayals and the loss of her legacy, Portia is determined to start a new life with her sisters in Manhattan . . . and never cook again. But when she moves into a dilapidated brownstone on the Upper West Side, she meets twelve-year-old Ariel and her widowed father Gabriel, a man with his hands full trying to raise two daughters on his own.
Soon, a promise made to her sisters forces Portia back into a world of magical food and swirling emotions, where she must confront everything she has been running from. What seems so simple on the surface is anything but when long-held secrets are revealed, rivalries exposed, and the promise of new love stirs to life like chocolate mixing with cream.
The Glass Kitchen is a delicious novel, a tempestuous story of a woman washed up on the shores of Manhattan who discovers that a kitchen—like an island—can be a refuge, if only she has the courage to give in to the pull of love, the power of forgiveness, and accept the complications of what it means to be family.

A wonderful family story which interests me very much.
I was initially drawn to the book because of it’s cover but would love to read it because it’s about families.
A Texan in New York story by a Texan in New York. I bet the details are accurate and the observations acute. Thanks
Huge fan of author.
The cover is the first thing that draws me in, then that it is a family story and there is recipes and such involved. It just sounds like a great book.
I would like to see how food plays into this story. Plus, I really enjoyed Emily and Einstein and have been looking forward to more from Linda Francis Lee.
The story sounds exciting with secrets and a new love. I would enjoy this book. Thanks for having the giveaway.
The cover really caught my eye and the story sounds like one I will enjoy.
I read an excerpt of this book and loved the way the author mixes together the very physically real process of cooking and the magical abilities (nothing heavily supernatural, thankfully!) of the main character. I was hooked and knew I would love to read this!
