A Dash of Desire

Gabrielle Mason needed a fresh start.After being fired-and blacklisted-by her powerful father, landing a sous chef position at Luxe Resorts felt like her last chance to rebuild her career.Too bad her new boss was Flynn McHale.The grumpy executive chef whose career her father nearly destroyed.The man who didn't trust her.And the last person she should be falling for.They were trapped in a workplace romance neither of them wanted.Bound by forced proximity in a high-pressure kitchen.And paired up for a Napa food festival that turned up more than just the heat.He was guarded and unforgiving.She was determined to prove she wasn't her father's puppet.But between walk-in cooler standoffs, late-night confessions, and sizzling tension, something deeper began to simmer.With enemies-to-lovers chemistry, a family feud, and a mysterious cookbook that always shows up when it's needed most,Flynn and Gabby must decide if second chances-in the kitchen and in love-are worth the burn.She was everything he tried to avoid.He might be the one necessary ingredient she never saw coming.
