Chef's Special
When the world's most impossible boss meets the one chef who refuses to be fired, it turns his carefully controlled life into total chaos.
Alexander Rooke doesn't do imperfect. Not in his boardroom, not in his billion-dollar empire, and certainly not on his dinner plate - which is why he's fired thirty-six chefs in six months for crimes ranging from "over-seasoning" to "emotional instability in a lasagna." Enter Pepper Moore: self-taught, sharp-tongued, and constitutionally incapable of being intimidated by a man in a good suit. She didn't come to survive him. She came to cook.
Which is exactly the problem. Because Rooke has never met anyone who talks back, refuses to shrink, and somehow makes a grilled cheese taste like a memory he didn't know he still had. What starts as a battle of wills over knife skills and kitchen rules quietly turns into something neither of them ordered - something that tastes a lot like trust, and a little like falling.
Pepper knows better than to fall for a man who fires people for breathing wrong. Rooke knows better than to want the one person he can't control.
Neither of them listens.
