Description from the publisher:
I
love my life. As owner and chef at one
of the hottest restaurants, I know how to keep things sizzling in and out of
the kitchen. What more could I ask for? But I’ll tell you what I didn’t ask for… a
klutzy, curly-haired woman slamming into me with unicorn cake. Yes, you read that right—a damn cake decorated
to look like the mythical creature bathed in every color of the rainbow.
What
could be worse, right? I’ll tell you. My brother hired her to be my pastry chef. You’d think that would be my biggest problem,
but that was just the tip of the iceberg.
Aside
from her being one of the clumsiest women I’ve ever met, she turns me on like
no other woman has. She tastes sweeter
than anything she creates, and we make a great team in and out of the
bedroom... I mean kitchen.
When
we first met, I worried my restaurant wouldn’t survive her. Now I worry that my heart won’t.
I
never wanted to fall in love, but sometimes life isn’t all unicorns and
rainbows.

HOOKED is the fifth book in the Prescott
series. Each will stand on their own,
but I highly recommend reading all of these delicious stories.
Heart-stopping moments, tears,
sighs, … yes this is a true romance between a girl who is bit of a free-spirited
geek and a straight-arrowed workaholic.
She is a pastry chef and he is a restaurant owner and house chef. That makes them like peanut butter and jelly
from the start…. Or better yet, steak (with all of the trimmings) and chocolate
cake. For me, that’s the perfect simple
yet perfect meal.
You will need a few tissues. You may need a leash on your kindle to keep
you from throwing it against the wall.
You may want to shake one or both of them on occasion – or the siblings –
but you will not want to miss this story.
I know all five siblings have met
their “the one,” but there are enough threads to suggest we may get a follow up
story. We can only hope.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC,
my opinions are my own and are given freely.
