One Enchanted Evening by Katie Fford

Set in 1966.  Meg's mum is running a small, old fashioned, hotel in Dorset.  She rings Meg and asks for help as there is an important annual event coming up and the hotel owner is abroad sorting out family business.  Meg has been working in kitchens in London and wants to become a professional chef.  On her arrival at the hotel the drunken chef walks out and Meg is left to prepare a meal for 50 people on her own.  

Justin, the son of the owner, turns up to check on things and is not impressed to find a woman in the kitchen.  Meg is tempted to leave him to it but her love of cooking keeps her there in the kitchen.  

Meg and her mum work hard on ways to update the hotel so that it can become profitable and stay open.
