Cook for Me
(2023)(The first book in the Perfect Passion Company series)
A Novella by Alexander McCall Smith
Katie Donald's aunt is moving to Canada and asks Katie to take over management of her matchmaking bureau. Katie, who is always ready for a new challenge, enthusiastically accepts the offer, taking charge of The Perfect Passion Dating Company at No. 24 Mouse Lane in Edinburgh's New Town. Although Katie has little in the way of direct experience, with the help of her amiable and handsome office neighbour William Kidd, she soon finds herself making matches for the lonely hearts tired of meeting online – and who want a more personal touch.
In Cook for Me, Katie's first client is a retired airline pilot named David who is looking to settle down. As Katie questions him about his previous relationships, it becomes clear David is keen on finding a partner who enjoys cooking – in particular, one who would enjoy cooking for him! Their first and most logical stop is a cooking school, thinking that this might be the perfect place to find a woman with a natural joy for cooking. Soon enough, an introduction is made that will undoubtedly lead to the fulfilment of David's desire . . . but not exactly in the way he was expecting.
With an innate instinct for bringing people together, Katie learns quickly on the job, developing a skill for finding out what it is that people really want. Along the way, as Katie works at better understanding others, she learns profound lessons about herself
Genre: Romance
