Years after a steamy shared night

Do they remember the recipe for love?

Rosie Franklin-Smith, junior editor at Savorist Magazine, dreams of writing award-winning features—but right now, she’s stuck chasing stories like how to make a great soup stock. When an exclusive with reclusive celebrity chef Nicola Kim drops into her lap, Rosie has a shot at finally proving herself as a writer.

Nicola recognizes Rosie’s name on the interview request…as someone she had a one-night stand with ten years ago. As soon as Rosie arrives at Sugar Maple Farm, the chemistry between them burns back to life. But it’s complicated. Rosie needs the real story behind Nicola’s disappearance—and when she crosses a line, her actions threaten to destroy the fragile trust of their growing romance.

From Harlequin Special  Believe in love. Overcome obstacles. Find happiness.
