About the author
Zuri Day
96 books277 followersZuri Day is a hopeful romantic. She believes in happy endings, half-full glasses and dreams coming true. That's why she's thrilled to be a contributing writer to this genre...one of her favorites!
Zuri doesn't remember exactly how old she was when she picked up her first romance novel, but she does remember it was love at first sight. "It was probably a Harlequin," she recalled during a recent interview. "And it thankfully took me away from a fairly dull and routine existence growing up in a small Kansas town."
Things aren't dull and routine anymore. Zuri now resides in Los Angeles with her family and when she isn't writing loves to travel the world, cook vegetarian food, work out, watch sports, attend concerts and theatre and enjoy the simple things in life.
"Many people have given up on love, much less romance," Zuri says. "I'm hoping that somehow, through the love-filled pages of my romance novels, I can ignite the reader's desire to believe again. Because everything is possible, when we believe..."

I thought the story started strong and quickly fizzled. By the time I got to the end I forgot the romantic beginning. Also, there's only so much complaining/whining a person can tolerate. The heroine had too many issues which surprised me that the hero would still find her attractive.
Btw, why was the villian introduced midway through the book. When she started talking, I was shocked bc I saw no purpose for her character. She should've been introduced earlier in the story.
Also, the story was just too long and started to feel drawn out. Overall, it was just an okay read. It could've ended with hiring the heroine. The rest was unnecessary.

Here is a list of reasons why I didn't not even get halfway through, WHAT LOVE TASTES LIKE.
• Tiffany, the heroine, travels to Rome with a battered old teddy bear named Tuffy. Okay, I thought it was a little cheesy, but I understand some people are terrified of flying, so I could by that. What I couldn't buy is that once she landed and was on terra firma she still looked to Tuffy as if she couldn't make a move without holding or consulting a damn teddy bear. We're talking about a woman in her twenties. I have a two year old and a six year old. There are no Tuffy's in their lives they're managing quite fine, thank you very much. So it was hard for me to see Tiffany being unable to do so.
• MASSIVE, MASSIVE, MASSIVE, MASSIVE Information dumps throughout the pages that distracted from the developing relationship between the hero and heroine.
• Stereotypical dialogue, plot, and characters that don't ring true to the real world or the real world of her characters and their place in life.
• The author's need to give a shout out to her writer friends by having characters in the novel reading their books.
• Scenes that did not move the plot forward and were just massive info dumps about stuff that I really didn't care about.
• Quotes like: "Hmph. You're bitchy 'cause you keep running from Nicky's dicky."
• Quotes like: "Spray some (perfume) on your titties and your coochie, too. But not where he's going to lick later on, only at the top."
• Quotes like: "There's no running away this time woman. I've got something for you that's more intoxicating than wine."
• Quotes like: "How's my brown sugar? Can I come over and taste some of your sweetness?"
• Okay, so the quotes were hilarious and I found myself laughing uproarishly several times while reading WHAT LOVE TASTES LIKE, but I don't think it was in the way the author intended.
• Immature characters. I could not identify with the hero and especially the heroine. I saw no reason why they were together.
• Hero/Heroine barely said anything to each other beyond hi, besides when they were having sex. No realistic conflict that keep them apart expect for immaturity.
• The plot made absolutely no sense to me.
I could go on and on. If you're interested, I tweeted while I read this book. If you're on twitter, look up the hashtag #wtfamireading and you can see it all in its blazing glory. I would've kept reading but there came a point where it stopped being funny and just started getting sad.
Of course, this is only my opinion. I understand this author has a large fan base. I'm just not one of them.

Story: GOOD
Intimacy level: NICE
Enjoyment: FAIRLY GOOD
Series: N/A
Price: $4.99 Amazon
The Good
A nice story. The author has kept me engaged and I followed through until the end. I love Nick and his personality. From the start, he stayed true to himself. He has a very dominate persona, sexy and commanding, however, I love that sweet part that he gave off and he wasn't shy to be in like and in love. Tiffany was cute, I like seeing her chase her dreams and watching her become a teenager like way around Nick. Their chemistry wasn't bad but it was enticing. The other characters definitely brought this book together the manipulative woman and the funny I love you best friend. I only wish Nick had a best friend that we got to read about as much.
The Bad
As much as I liked Nick and Tiffany's story, sometimes the story seem repetitive in certain ways. Although the author built a certain pass around Tiffany, she came off childish a bit and really stubborn, granted that was apart of her character. The physical chemistry between Nick and Tiffany was good, but I felt I need more steam in the bedroom to be the icing on the cake for my taste.
Overall
A nice read, love the storyline and a few moments that made you smile. I would recommend this as a nice summer or full year round read.

I really loved this book. The plot was fantastic, and so different from everything else out there. The storyline was well developed, and had many twist and turns which made me not want to stop reading until I got to the last page! I wish Zuri Day had all of her books on Kindle so I can continue reading them. She has definitely found a new fan in me!

This book had just the right amount of drama, romance and a little eroticism (if that's a word) tossed in, with a good storyline. Even though you kind of know how things will play out in the end, it still kept my attention to see how it all unfolded until that point. I'm not big on romance but this one was entertaining.
October 2, 2012
This story was interesting but Tiffany the main character got on my nerves to say the least. But it has a good message and I kept eating reading this book. The author is obviously a foodie.
September 18, 2010
I like the story; I especially liked Nick. The issue was with Tiffany; way too whiney. If it hadn't been for her I would have given it another point.

Loved it!

I just that there should have been more. Tiffany just keep getting on my nerves.

This book grew on me. The hero and heroine engage in an "office" romance--she's a sous chef in his hotel. His ex-girlfriend doesn't like that he's moved on despite the fact that they wanted different things. She pulls a bunch of classic evil other woman crap. So this book, as far as I'm concerned, started out with two strikes against it. However, the writing and humor kept me going with it until it straightened itself out. The heroine's other relationships with women--her BFF, her co-workers and her grandmother--made up for the portrayal of the evil ex. The BFF is book-stealing and there's a little marriage-in-trouble subplot. I'd actually love it if we got that full story at some point. Anyway, this is a particularly rich, believeable and ultimately satisfying book. Also, the audio narration was top-notch. I actually quibble a lot with narrators' comic timing but this one really has it down. Good stuff!

I think this book was more long and drawn out that it should of been. Tiffany a 28 year old woman was neglected by her father as a child because he always put business first meets Nick an almost 40 year old who had the same type of business mind. Their chance meeting in Italy ended up bringing them together for work and pleasure. But Tiffany still held a sore spot in her heart because of her workaholic father and when Nick cancels their vacation for business she has had enough. It took family and friend interception to get these men to realize Tiffany was hurt and needed to be put first for a change. The finagling by Nick’s ex was ridiculous and senseless. The ending left me hanging. My favorite character was Grand and her wisdom. Not one of my favorite reads but it had the potential to be better if it was shorter and focused more on growth.

OMG i am in love with Nick!!! Jeeze! Beautiful story, Tiffanie was annoying for a long time with her daddy issues but i get it! Completely taken up with their love story and was super excited at the end and thought they'd get married and have a baby etc but i was sadly disappointed! Perfect love story and made me wanna find a love like theirs!
December 2, 2017
Tiffany got on my last nerve and I found myself thinking grow up. It started hot and heavy and kinda fizzled at the end. This is the second book of hers that made me feel this way.
August 22, 2018
Captivating!
December 13, 2018
An ok read if you want something fun and entertaining. Seemed long and drawn out to me.. and I wasn’t into Nick at all. Too rich, too aggressive, too “I get what I want.” Meh.

Despite the three stars, I liked this book, could have liked it more if it wasn’t so descriptive. There were just too many adjectives surrounding Tiffany’s profession.
The story itself was sweet, the drama was cool and refreshing :-). The supporting characters were a nice compliment and didn’t overpower the leads.
All in all it was worth the time.

What Love Tastes Like by Zuri Day
Love is one of the most powerful emotions a person possesses. It’s indescribable, uncontrollable and so necessary. In relation to the five senses, seeing, hearing, feeling, touch and taste love emits a different experience. For example, seeing love might be a couple kissing or a bouquet of roses. Hearing love might be a great love song by Marvin, Al, or Luther. Feeling love might be an embrace or warmth in your heart. Touching love might be a gentle stroke to the face, but tasting love that’s where it gets tricky. What might that be?
Aspiring chef, Tiffany Matthews can replicate and create some fabulous dishes but when love adds some spice to her life, no amount of water or sugar will cool the flames like that of her heart’s passionate flambé. In the efforts of balancing her professional and personal life, Tiffany has her hands full with advice from a myriad of well intentioned people including her best friend Joy, her mom, and the ever-wise grandmother that, Tiffany affectionately calls Grand; all while dealing with her own reservations and issues of the past that seem to keep her from love.
Businessman, entrepreneur, and one of L.A’S most eligible bachelors Dominique “Nick” Rollins can build it, buy it or sell it, yet love won’t be another acquisition that he can easily bind into a contract. Just ending his engagement to now ex- girlfriend Angelica, Nick wasn’t looking to find a love interest or employee the day he meet his new chef but ever since that fateful day his heart won’t go without her.
As the cliché states, “ You never miss your water until your well runs dry” and Angelica is missing Nick: but after he dismisses her attempts of winning him back Angelica launches a plan to get even. As with the best-laid plans, things aren’t always what they seem and Angelica finds herself in the midst of a storm she never saw coming.
Faced with an impossible choice, who is Nick to save? The woman who has already broken his heart and continues to make his life difficult or the woman that holds his heart and that won’t give him his way? With confused palates, they all need a fruit sorbet to cleanse the mouth. It is with this cleansing they can all discover what love tastes like and is the taste something they can live with.
Please do not read while hungry, all the decadence described will lead to experimenting in the kitchen with new flavors one has never thought of combining. Not only is this a culinary treat, but also a multi layered story of love. Love shown between a man and woman, parent and child, also greed and jealousy. Granted it starts off slow and has a predictable beginning, it has the right amount of drama to keep the pages turning.
My Rating: 4 ****

What does Love taste like? A steak that sizzles out in the first few chapters and leaves a bad aftertaste. This book started off with good intentions but it soon became over seasoned with cheesy quotes and an annoying heroine who is intent on sabotaging an happily ever after with her Christian Grey due to "daddy issues". Half-way through this book I was ready to schedule the heroine on a session of Iyanla's "Fix My Life"
There were also many implausible situations in this book that could have been easily solved with a simple text or a google search. For example, After Nicks meets and spends a chaotic but wonderful night in Rome with Tiffany (whom he likes very much) he dashes off before she wakes up to travel LA for business. Tiffany is upset because of the dry business tone of his letter, and she instantly feels hurt. Unlike 99% of women in the world she doesn't text him and say anything or ask questions regarding his disappearance (really Tiffany?!). Was Nick in such a rush that he could not have woken her up to even say bye? I'm sure that could have taken less than a minute. Did they even exchange phone numbers? Sigh.... thus we are forced to endure more chapters of useless info and a heroine confused as why her prince ran away, how much she hates him, how much she doesn't want to see him again, she thought there was something there..blah..blah....etc..etc..etc
Even though Nick spends his whole time in the book showering Tiffany with affection, romance, money, and even a good job, she walks out on him, throws temper tantrums and compares him to her father who always put "business over her" (This was the common theme for about 99% of the book). Whether Nick is giving her 10,000 dollars to spend like its monopoly money, offering her trips around the world or even buying her a business of her own, our heroine pouts like a selfish, sullen teen when he has to cancel vacations for business trips or take business calls.
The worst aftertaste I received from this book was the ending. What was most laughable is the thought that these two ambitious men (Nick and Tiffany's father) would both consider forfeiting a deal of a lifetime (I'm talking millions and millions) just to assuage Tiffany's past hurt regarding people putting business over her.
I really wanted to like this book but I could not deal with such a childish heroine who would sabotage her "happily ever after" based on past hurts from a father who was just providing for his family probably the best way he knew how.

It was alright. It just felt kind of flat for me. I couldn’t really get into the story. A good bit of drama and spice. 2.5/5

Apparently, love is pretty tasty, not to mention fulfilling. Tiffany Matthews is about to have an experience of a lifetime while travelling to Rome to study under a master chef. What she doesn't expect is for a man for every woman's fantasy to help her out of a difficult situation. Dominique Rollins is intrigued by the young woman clutching a tattered teddy bear while boarding an international flight; even more so when he actually meets her. Nick is supposed to be on vacation before the opening of his boutique hotel in Los Angeles, not picking up pretty women in the airport. Needless to say, he can't seem to help himself. Even after a promising beginning Nick and Tiffany part ways in Rome but meet again back in the States. Tiffany is the immovable object and Nick is definitely an irresistible force. Nick has to battle Tiffany's aversion to workaholics in order to win her over.
What Love Tastes Like is a sexy read, typical of Zuri Day. I do think that if I was a friend of Tiffany's should would make me pull my hair out in frustration. She was as stubborn as a mule but her best friend Joy and grandmother are present to give her a dose of common sense and wisdom. Nick, on the other hand, is a character who is a bit too laid back with his ex-girlfriend but sees the error of his ways in the end. I like this book alot and will be purchasing any other of Zuri Day's work in the future.

Audiobook. It was a good read. Predictable, but still entertaining.

What Love Tastes Like touches all boundaries when it comes to love, trust, and having a broken heart. I believe we all have made the mistake of weighing our past on our future in a negative way. It is something hard to get over having a broken heart and to love again especially when the one who let you downn is your own father. The main character Tiffany deals with a absentee father and who blindly builds a wall around his daughters heart. After being let down time and time again from her father Tiffany develops a lack of trust in men. This facts threatens the one true relationship with Nick who finds Tiffany attractive and addictive. With the many broken promises in her life Tiffany took it upon herself to follow her dream of becoming a top shelf chef. But in the end ask yourself this does a dollar bill come visit you on your death bed? Will these characters follow their careers and let their past ruin their future? Or will they allow love to prevail and finally get to know what love taste like? This was absolutely my most favorite by Zuri Day. I say that about most of her books. But she outdone her self on this one and kept me hungry for food in the process. This book is defiantly top shelf.
