I absolutely adored this story of Amy, the aspiring and controlling restaurant owner and Sophie, the up and coming cook who just wants to find her place in life. The tension between Amy and Sophie is electric right from the start as Sophie is coming to terms with her sexuality while confident Amy has it all under control. 

This is a great read about finding one's true self, accepting who you are and hoping everyone around you will understand and be accepting as well. This story is full of passion, both professional and personal. Both Amy and Sophie want to succeed in the business which can be tough, but will business get in the way of a potential romance? 

This story comes highly recommended! Thank you Ruby and Harlequin team for allowing me to participate in your book tour! I'm so thankful to have been provided the opportunity to add this beautiful story to my shelves!
