The Chef's Kiss Series

Evelyn Pimm is optimistic about her future. She managed to land her dream job at The Lennon—A two Michelin-starred restaurant nestled in the heart of San Francisco—with nothing but determination and single-origin coffee flowing through her bloodstream.

After ending an abusive relationship and committing herself fully to her career, Evie’s dream of finally being promoted to chef de cuisine circles her head in a halo of fantasy-filled bubbles. That is, until her dear friend and owner of the restaurant pops those dream bubbles by enlisting the help of her longtime nemesis: his son.

Maxwell Easton plays his part well. A poster boy for Michelin cuisine, he wears his arrogance and pompous demeanor like a suit of armor. Armor that is absolutely necessary when he gets anywhere near Evelyn. His secret attraction to the woman is an inconvenience that will have to be smothered, for Max is taking the restaurant over for his dad and is determined not to fail him again.

But when Evelyn exchanges her fantasies of stuffing Max in the fryer for something a little more…appetizing, will he be able to resist?
