Book Review: The Perfect Blend (and Giveaway!)

The Perfect Blend, published in 2010 by Harvest House Publishers is an easy-to-read romantic novel by Trish Perry that prominently features a tea room. Steph, the main character finds herself in a difficult position when her fiancé leaves her standing alone. She connects with several characters throughout the book, including the tea room owner where she finds temporary work until she lands on her feet. In the meantime, a friendly romance begins to develop with one of the towns eligible bachelors. Steph discovers herself, her connection to family and friends, reevaluates her relationship with the fiancé when he returns, and relies on faith and prayer to make the right decisions in life. 

There were plenty of interactions in the tea room including prepping for the tea service for the day. In the back of the book there are a few recipes for some of the food that is served in Millicent's Tea Room. This book is the first in the tea room series by author Perry.
If you're looking for a fun clean read, curl up with a mug of tea, and enjoy the unexpected turns that are part of life's journey for Steph. If you would like to be included in a Giveaway for a slightly used copy of this book and a few tea samples to enjoy with it, leave a comment on this post now thru Sunday March 8th. Winner will be announced Monday the 9th.
