It was something more than attraction. She moved him- the way she cared so much about her grandfather and Bella Vista, her earnest dedication to her family and friends. Her unbelievable cooking. The tiny pulse beneath the delicate skin of her throat. She bothered the hell out of him, too, because his attraction to her wasn't something he could rationalize or control. He loved talking to her, even when she was griping him. He liked the softness that came over her face when she was in the garden or with her grandfather.

And that was a good thing. It kept her from focusing on things that couldn't be changed, such as the fact that she'd never finished culinary school, or that she'd allowed one failed relationship to keep her closed up tight inside a hard, protective shell. Now she had a new project that consumed her every waking moment- the cooking school. It was true that she didn't have the official certification from a prestigious institute, but she had something that couldn't be taught- a God-given talent in the kitchen. She clung to that gift, grateful to let the passion consume her and fill her days with a joyous pursuit. She believed living and feeling well came from eating well, appreciating the simple things in life and spending time in the company of family and friends, and that was the mission of the Bella Vista Cooking School.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Susan Wiggs" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/susan-wiggs/life-could-be-very-distracting-thought-isabel-and-that-was-a-good/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/953/susan-wiggs-3167_cooking_life-could-be-very-distracting-thought-i_635556.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/953/susan-wiggs-3167_cooking_life-could-be-very-distracting-thought-i_635556.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/953/susan-wiggs-3167_cooking_life-could-be-very-distracting-thought-i_635556.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Life could be very distracting, thought Isabel.
