After Julie Delgado’s restaurant closes, she temporarily takes over the catering position at the Rose Chalet, a full-service San Francisco wedding venue. She plans to dazzle the bride and groom so the Chalet’s owner will keep her around, but fate has other plans for her when the bride’s brother shows up for the first food tasting.

Andrew Kyle is not only the Cuisine Channel’s Edgy Eats host and chef, but his recent review of Julie’s restaurant was the final nail in its coffin. Once he meets Julie at the Rose Chalet, he’s certain she’s playing it safe. And he wants nothing more than to be the one to break her guarded passions loose.

But despite the undeniable sparks between Julie and Andrew–and the fact that he seems to believe in her when no one else does–can she afford to be taking risks with her cooking, with her career…or with her heart?

A quick little contemporary romance.  In 102 pages, I was sucked into a fun little story with likable and relatable characters.  I loved that the story included food trucks (my favorite find since moving to the coast).  Of course, the story itself was predictable.  But that's what I wanted: a nice fluffy romance for an evening read.  Now that I realized that this is Book 1 of a series, I may just have to get the other four (currently all ~$3.00 on Amazon digital).
