"Here's hoping."
This old flame just might set them on fire . . .
Conceited, unattainable, and downright delicious, renowned Michelin-starred chef Ambrose Casablancas has one passion in life¿food.
Women are a distraction, and he doesn't do those. Especially not Cal Litvin, his little sister's best friend. Although the two of them have a secret shared past, now her entire existence is a complication for him: she's awkward, eccentric, infuriating . . . and she's also hotter than his kitchen.
But Cal is back in their hometown after her father's death to nurse her mother's broken heart. And, finding herself jobless, hopeless and penniless, she is forced to show up on the doorstep of Ambrose's new restaurant to find work.
For Cal, falling for the bad boy the second time around would be a huge mistake, But Ambrose's resolve, like this patience, is ebbing each day Cal works at his restaurant . . .
Because Cal is no longer a doe-eyed girl. Now, she's a woman that Ambrose will do anything to conquer.
