Title: Wimpy character, too much backstory
Review: One common problem in first-books-in-a-series is too much backstory, and this one sadly provides a grim example. Davidson churns out information on character after character that the reader has no reason to care about yet, delaying the start of the actual story. Then it didn't take me long to realize Goldy is a wuss, a doormat just waiting to be trampled on. Although her ex-husband physically and emotionally abused her, she still expends effort to accommodate his whims, to the extent of preparing a non-strawberry accent for an event she is catering that she expects him to attend! Sheesh! Since I couldn't care for the character, I didn't care about the story, and quit about a quarter of the way through. The title related to the plot in only the most obvious way, that Goldy runs a catering business. The only praise I can give the book is that it uses good spelling and grammar.
