Chef's Kiss
Flora Ferrari - 2019
A position stocking shelves in a restaurant supply store sounds perfect for this shy, curvy girl who’s uncomfortable with small talk and being around people all day. But nothing’s small about the older man who walks in on my first day of employment…celebrity chef Christian Cherry. He’s tall, dark, and handsome to the extreme, and the only man this younger woman has ever fantasized about giving her innocence too. And when he gives me a seemingly innocent invitation to come see his cooking show being filmed, my beautiful coworker says she sees something in him for the first time in the three years that he’s been coming in…an intense hunger for a woman, and that woman is me. There’s just no way a simple, sweet curvy girl who prefers romance novellas to a night out on the town could be enough for an older man who’s got everything going for him, is there? He’s my dream Mr. Right, and I don’t want to get overexcited and read his intentions wrong…until he tells me he needs my help making a very special dessert sticky sweet, and Mr. Cherry intends to put it there to get the flavor he so deeply desires. This possessive OTT alpha is making it crystal clear that he’s cooking up a plan to raise a family with me, and he’s going to show me he’s ready to do whatever it takes to put a bun in my oven and a ring on my finger, and turn my fantasy into a HEA…forever. *Chef's Kiss is a standalone romance with an HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.
