Description:

"Fun & hilarious foodie romance -- too hot in the kitchen."

Choco Sanchez is stuck in a rut. She’s never hit a softball and has been friends forever with Carlos Lopez, the head cook at her family’s Filipino restaurant. When flashy restaurant consultant Johnny Dee hits her with a pitch, she falls head over heels and gets a makeover.

Carlos Lopez is not about to lose one for the home team. Johnny launches a full scale change on the menu, and Carlos sends him straight into the dumpster. Claiming Choco’s heart proves more difficult, especially when her secrets threaten to doom their love. But never underestimate a man who can cook hot, spicy, and steamy, and we ain’t talking just food.

" I triple dog dare you to read this story and not be affected by it in an intense, emotional, and palpable way." - Amber McCallister **

Review

Love Bites & Silk - "This is one fun roller coaster of a ride. I totally loved this author's quirky voice, sassy characters and sports references. Choco has such a smart mouth and it was interesting being in her head." . Bookaholics Must Read - "I love the emotions that take place in this one, we have soul-hurting longing, and tears-in-your-eyes heartbreak and over-the-rainbow love that hurts you own heart to read" . annamaria's writing corner - "What this author seems to have is a great knack for creating down-to-earth-believable-characters, the kind readers tend to invest serious time in, losing themselves in the characters' problems and struggles." . Trips Down Imagination Road - "I really enjoyed this book, it has a rich culture, strong characters, and sizzling chemistry even outside the bedroom." . Lita's Book Blog - "Carlos I really really liked. He was just so cool, and hot, and caring and hot, and just an awesome cook." . Marie Clara - "The first few chapters of the book are super entertaining, I was literally laughing when they all accused Choco as a sex addict. I love the stolen kisses and touches Choco and Carlos has shared not only in the kitchen. It's so hot, especially knowing that Choco is affected with his kisses even though she tried to deny it many times." . Kait Reviews - "Each time I tried to guess what would happen next or I would know the characters next move, something else would happen. The story kept me on my toes trying to figure out how it'd progress." . The Myrabev Life - "one hot smoking book that you won't want to put down."
