Child advocate Nora Cross doesn't have time for the private cooking lesson her sister won at a charity auction. Hunter Graham, the young chef, is the last person she needs telling her she's forgotten how to have fun. So why can't she get the very hot, very eligible man off her mind? After a stellar debut in New York City, Hunter's back in Santa Fe to open a new restaurant. He lives a charmed life and he knows it. He isn't interested in a workaholic who's glued to her smart phone. So why is he trying to convince Nora to relax and enjoy life--with him? When Nora's apartment and office are ransacked, Hunter comes to her rescue, surprised to find himself playing knight-in-shining-armor to the uptight executive. But when it becomes clear Nora is no random target, Hunter realizes he'll do anything to keep her safe.

About the Author
I've been a writer all my life but returned to my love of fiction after more than 20 years in the world of corporate communications--although some might argue there is plenty of opportunity for fiction-writing there, too. I have a Master's degree in journalism and an undergraduate degree in psychology. A fan of many genres, I am drawn to contemporary romance and enjoy creating deeply emotional stories with elements of mystery and suspense. I live in eastern Ontario with my wonderful husband, two fabulous children, a rescued cat, two Siberian Huskies, and assorted aquatic wildlife.

The characters were interesting and true to life. No grammatical errors jumped out at me."It wasn't only the look of the man who held her that sent her senses reeling. He smelled like chocolate. Not the sweet milk chocolate candy, but a deep, dark, earthy cocoa that was complemented by the barest hint of something spicy."I am not in the habit of reiterating the book blurb or spoiling the plot, so I won't start now. The story line has its typical playboy and the girl who doesn't realize how beautiful she is. It has humor and suspense, although I was able to figure out the secrets soon into the book. But, that may be because I am an avid reader and figuring out plots is easy for me."I'm so sorry," Nora siad. "I'm not usually so accident prone.""Somehow I doubt that," he replied, and lithely pushed himself to his feet. "Shall we try this again?" He held out his hand.Not to spoil the plot, but to give an honest opinion, there was a kidnapping and torture scene in the book that I personally felt the book did not need. I thought the book held its own without the addition of that part of the story line. It was not particularly gruesome, I just felt it was not needed. The story was good, but I thought that it could have been reworked a little and this particular part eliminated; it just seemed out of place."Let me introduce you to Miss Haversham," he said, leading her to the dapple-gray mare. "Miss Haversham?" "Yes. My Grandmother Graham had two favorite authors - God and Charles Dickens. Her children got biblical names and the animals are all named after Dickens' characters."Readers who love a good romance book will love this book."Can we go faster?" What? Oh man, get a grip. Nora was pushing Missy to gofaster, digging her heels into the mare's sides and whipping on the reins."Nora, no. Wait!" It happened so quickly he didn't have time to react. Missystopped suddenly, lowered her head and kicked up her back feet, throwingher rider forward. Nora somersaulted over Missy's head and landed hard on her back.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Wonderful and heartwarming! By IngaKS My review:Let me start with stating, that the cover does not make this book, story or characters any justice! If I would only take a look at the cover, I would probably never read this wonderful book! I know that I should never judge book by its cover, I just think, that this cover is not very good.With that said, I absolutely loved The Hungry Heart! It was a book what I would probably love to re-read again. It was well written, it had many wonderfully drawn characters and the plot kept me guessing and wondering, what is going to happen next. It was engrossing and I read it in one seating, I could not put it down.Plot:Enter Nora, who is successful Child Advocate. She is very good at what she is doing; her work is important and she is very passionate about it. But her life is boring and she has forgotten how to have fun - at least this is what her sister Karen thinks. So Karen is sending Nora to a cooking lessons.When Nora shows up there, she meets a hot shot chef Hunter (I loved the name!). Nora is very reluctant to the cooking lessons and especially towards Hunter - she simply does not think she has time for that nonsense. She denies the attraction between them and keeps pushing Hunter away for several reasons.When Nora's apartment is broken in to, Hunter decides to protect her. Nora isn't really your typical damsel in distress and Hunter knows that, but whatever might happen, he wants to be there for her. He just has to convince her. After realizing that the break in and attack was not random, the story gets a whole lot more suspense thrown into it. As the story develops you find out, that there are lot of things in Nora's past which are not as they seem and the author keeps you on edge for finding out what exactly is happening.I loved the plot! I think it was intriguing and not very typical romance novel. I liked the surprises and twists and turns in the story. Besides the captivating plot, there were many brilliantly written characters which supported the plot and gave lots of extra sassyness to the book!Characters:I think that even though the plot was genuinely good, the story was character(s) driven. Both the main characters and the supportive characters were colorful and alive. There were nobody who left me indifferent.The character I could mostly relate to was Nora and she was my favorite character. She touched me on personal level too, because I found few similarities with her: having a relationship to a younger man, working hard and seeing her work as the most important thing in her life - until Hunter comes along of course. Nora was strong minded, she was intelligent -yet vulnerable. This is how I like my female protagonists. I think the author did an excellent job with her!Hunter was a true player, handsome, smart and a serious charmer. He knew exactly what a woman needed - at least until Nora shows up in his life. Nora intrigues him and after a threat towards Nora, he wants to protect her.I liked the dynamics of Nora's and Hunter's relationship, I think they balanced each other and even though they were different, they supported the story equally well.As mentioned above, the amount of fascinating characters is big in The Hungry Heart and they all give joy reading an overall entertaining story!Generally:I loved The Hungry Heart and it is heart-warming, engrossing and filled with characters whom you will definitely love! I highly recommend The Hungry Heart by Brenda Gayle.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A- rating.... By Smitten with Reading My Review:A-Overall, I really, really enjoyed reading this book. It features two very different people who really don't have much in common, but they become friends and then more despite that.Hunter is a definite playboy, but he loves and respects women...he just doesn't have lasting relationships with them and he's honest about that. He's one of those guys who knows how to make ever woman feel like the most important thing in the world, but then not have any idea what her name is the next day. When Karen, Nora's sister, wins a cooking lesson from him at a charity auction, she sets Nora up for the lesson, hoping that Nora can add some fun to her life. And Hunter pulls his normal charming attitude, but Nora doesn't want to have anything to do with it.Nora is driven...to a fault. She's been building a childrens' charity organization for the last ten years...devoting ALL her time to it. She never steps out of her work mode, to the point that she doesn't even recognize that Hunter is trying to flirt and charm her. She simply doesn't have the time for his type of flippant behavior.I'll be honest...this story sucked me right in and I truly enjoyed every minute of reading it. I liked Hunter and Nora. Things do NOT go well between the two of them the first couple of times they meet. They are definitely oil and water. Hunter is fine with it all though and just lets it roll off his back. Nora's a bit more tightly wound than that and she finds the entire experience humiliating. While I don't necessarily connect with the drive and unrelenting push behind Nora's personality, I could feel for her in these socially awkward moments. And Hunter is truly a nice guy...he's just a bit of a man-whore.I liked the whole story line with Hunter's family ranch and his restaurant. I'm hoping that with the depth that was put into this story line, that we are going to see other books featuring this family. I also really enjoyed the mystery/suspense of the attacks on Nora. I always felt like I had a pretty good feel about what was going on, but there were definitely a couple of points at the end that surprised me. I also really loved the child advocacy/political aspect of the story. There is definitely an art to those types of receptions and dinners and it was fun to watch Nora grow in her ability to handle them.Overall it was a great book. From page one, I was immersed in the story. I'll admit that based upon my pure enjoyment WHILE reading the book, it rates higher than the final score I gave it. The reason for this is that upon reflection, there were a couple of points in the plot that were a little unbelievable, but while reading the book, they didn't affect my enjoyment of it at all. I will definitely be reading this author again!I received a complementary copy of this book in return for an honest review.
