For the Love of Cooking - Paperback

by Kat Neil (Author)

For Los Angeles' darling chef, Aubrey Carroll, the Chef Supreme cooking competition is her golden ticket to independence. No hovering parents, no safety nets-just her, her whisk, and her grit. But when she spots him-her former culinary school rival and king of eye rolls-competing by her side, her recipe for freedom gets an unexpected dash of chaos.

Benson Carter thought fleeing New York would give him the fresh start he desperately needed. Instead, it's a case of déjà vu, stirring up insults with the one woman who's always managed to get under his skin - In ways that drive him crazy, yet leave him utterly captivated.

With Aubrey's bustling restaurant and soon-to-open bakery just a stone's throw from Benson's shiny new eatery, their feud spills out of the kitchen and onto the block. Words are sharp and the heat between them is impossible to ignore.

But when simmering tensions bubble over into something far more delicious than rivalry, they'll have to confront their old wounds, personal demons, and fear of failure. Can they turn their chaos into a romantic partnership, or will the pressure leave them both burned?
