She doesn’t believe in fairy tales. He’s never had to. Until one night changes everything. Jo Patree doesn’t need rescuing—she needs funding. Her dream of building a high-end personal chef business is finally within reach … if she’s willing to cook for the last man she’d ever trust: a cocky, devastatingly charming tech millionaire she’s been avoiding on sight. He’s entitled. He’s reckless. He’s impossible to ignore. Lucas Bakker is used to getting what he wants—until his career is on the verge of imploding and the best thing about his forced time off in the small-town where he grew up is the chef who storms into his kitchen like she owns it … but wants nothing to do with him. Jo’s food? Addictive. Jo’s curves and quick wit? Even worse. She has rules: keep it professional, keep her distance, and never again mix business with pleasure. He has other ideas. When a snowstorm traps them together, the heat in the kitchen has nothing to do with the stove … and one taste changes everything. It was never supposed to be more—but some fairy tale endings won’t be denied. A sizzling, emotional enemies-to-lovers romance featuring sharp banter, scorching chemistry, and a would-be Cinderella refusing to believe in a love she never saw coming.
