Another delicious treat full of Southern sass, wit, and charm from the New York Times bestselling author of Savannah Breeze and Hissy Fit
Chef extraordinaire Gina Foxton doesn't expect anything to be handed to her on a platter. After years of hard work, the former runner-up Miss Teen Vidalia Onion is now the host of her own local Georgia public television show called Fresh Start, and she's dating the show's producer.
But when her show gets canceled—and she catches her boyfriend in flagrante delicto with the boss's wife—Gina realizes that she's meant for bigger and better things. Namely, a gig on national television.
The Cooking Channel is looking for its next big star, and Gina is certain that she fits the bill. Trouble is, the execs also have their eyes on Mr. "Kill It and Grill It" Tate Moody, the star of a hunting, fishing, and cooking show named Vittles. Tate is the ultimate man's man, with a dog named Moonpie and a penchant for flannel shirts. He's also a tasty side of beef with a swooning female fan base. All Gina has on her side are a free-spirited, college-dropout sister and a mother who calls every single day.
Little does Gina know, though, that she and Tate are soon to embark on the cook-off of their lives, spiced up by a little ingredient called love.

Reader Reviews from First Look
Gina Foxton, host of a popular local cooking show, Fresh Start, is looking for a miracle. She would like to have her very own show on the nationally televised Cooking Channel. There is one small problem, though. Tate Moody. The handsome hunk who just happens to be one very desirable bachelor and not such a bad cook himself, would like to expand his horizons, too. His own show, Vittles, a local hit with the female population, just might be the next Cooking Channel favorite, too.
Of course, things don’t go exactly as planned and Gina and Tate find themselves in some tasty competition. Who will be the next big star? You’ll just have to wait and find out. I’ll tell you this, though. Mary Kay Andrews has cooked up one delectable read. Deep Dish sizzles with just the right combination of humor and sexual tension. It will leave you licking your lips, ready for more. Cooking is no longer just for the kitchen.

Mary Kay Andrews has written a delightful, witty romance of the first order! As soon as I read the preface of this particular novel I was hooked, especially considering that the very same "fight" takes place between my husband and myself when it comes to cooking. Fast-paced with never a dull moment "Deep Dish" will appeal to many readers and if they spread the word then "Deep Dish" will be a much beloved read for millions. Kudos to Mary Kay Andrews for writing a sure-fire winner!

I loved this book. It had plenty of warm, friendly Southern charm mixed with smoldering sexiness.
The tension between Regina and Tate was hot.
It was a pleasure to read all the folksy Southern dialogue and I just about died laughing when Regina told her younger sister that she looked like "a ho" in her "booty shorts".
I was tickled by the sexy redneck Tate Moody and his "grill it and kill it" show. He's like a much hotter Ted Nugent, who also likes to hunt for his own food. His macho comments and sarcasm were incredibly funny to me.
I devoured this book in one day. I couldn't stop reading. It was absolutely delightful.
I look forward to reading more of Mary Kay Andrews work in the future.

I absolutely loved this book and couldn't put it down from the first page on. As a professional culinarian myself, I was wondering how Mary Kay Andrews was going to write "Deep Dish" with her normal flair of humor while still maintaining the unique personalities she gives to every character within a book. True to her gift, she made sure "Deep Dish" was written so her readers could vividly imagine themselves a part of each chapter. Mary Kay Andrews is and will remain one of my favorite authors. Only she can tell a story like she does!
