A woman determined to succeed… When her career as a chef stalled and her marriage fell apart, Ivy Montgomery left Los Angeles to start over and open her own restaurant. She retreated to Lost Coast Harbor, her ex-husband’s hometown, where she could raise her daughter among friends and family. With the holidays right around the corner, Ivy plans to make a big splash at her new bistro, The Vine. The last thing she expects is her ex-husband to turn up as the celebrity guest chef for her main competitor. A man with a plan… Parker Montgomery has built an incredibly successful career as a chef. Winning a spot on a popular reality TV show led to his own series, a flagship restaurant, and a lucrative line of endorsements. However, that success came with a high price—his wife and family. The career Parker built cost him the love of his life, but now he’s returned to his hometown to win her back. Of course Parker’s plan may need some work, since being the guest chef for Ivy’s cutthroat competitor at Christmas was not his smartest move. This battle of the exes has all the ingredients for a disaster—or enough holiday spice to heat up the holidays. With their darkly captivating romantic series, authors Lily Danes and Eve Kincaid invite you to visit Lost Coast Harbor—the small town filled with dangerous secrets and troubling lies.
