  Fortune Cafe


The Fortune Café
a novel in three parts

MIS-FORTUNE: Emma, a waitress at The Fortune Café will do anything to avoid opening a fortune cookie. Each fortune is rumored to somehow magically come true. Being a girl grounded in reality, she doesn’t have time for that kind of nonsense. But when trying to prevent a food fight at the café, Emma accidently cracks open a fortune cookie: “Look around, love is trying to catch you.” If there is one thing that Harrison, her former best friend in high school is good at, it’s catching her unaware.   LOVE, NOT LUCK: Lucy has always been lucky . . . until her parents meet her fiancé’s parents at a disastrous lunch at The Fortune Café, and she breaks her lucky jade necklace. Even worse, her fortune cookie reveals that “True love is for the brave, not the lucky.” How is she supposed to read that? She’s always considered it lucky how she met her fiancé. But after breaking her necklace, Lucy’s luck takes a dive. And when her fiancé dumps her, the only person she can turn to is Carter, the unluckiest guy she knows.   TAKEOUT: Stella is content in her new life of taking over her mom’s jewelry shop. No more boyfriend to worry about, and as long as she stays busy, she doesn’t have to dwell on her non-existent love life. When Evan comes into the shop with his young daughter, Stella is charmed. But she is reluctant to complicate her straightforward life, so when she reads her fortune after ordering takeout from The Fortune Café, she completely ignores it. After all, how can a fortune as vague as “Do the thing you fear and love is certain,” apply to her?


My Review:

This is one awesome book!  It made me fall in love with the small town of Seashell Beach and brought back sweet memories of time with my own family on the coast of California.  Although this book is written in three parts by three different authors it felt completely cohesive to me.  I enjoyed each different part of the story and I enjoyed how the fortunes from The Fortune Cafe played into each romance!  Each different section (there are three) have their own unique romance stories and all include the scenic town of Seashell Beach.  I have to say that I chose this book to read because I am a huge fan of Heather B. Moore!  I have now become fans of Julie Wright and Melanie Jacobson as well through their amazing stories in The Fortune Cafe!  The yummy food that was a part of each story was so well described I was hungry just reading it!  There is laughter, frustration, romance, sadness, love, anger...basically every emotion you will experience throughout this book!  I highly recommend this book!  Find your favorite reading spot and get comfortable because you won't put this book down until you are finished!
