She was a fortress of order. She was a storm of chaos. The kitchen wasn't big enough for both of them.
Captain Vanessa Rossini lives by one word: control. Her family's restaurant is her sanctuary, her legacy, and she defends it with military precision. April Miller, her brilliant but chaotic new cook, is a vibrant splash of color who lives to break every rule Vanessa holds dear.
The friction between them is immediate, infuriating...and dangerously electric. What begins as a battle of wills in a hot kitchen soon ignites into a passionate fire of a different kind. Vanessa's fierce need for command finds its perfect match in April's deep, willing desire to be claimed. In private, the stern Captain's loving discipline becomes the anchor for an unruly heart.
But their newfound love is far from safe. When a ruthless rival mobster sets his sights on destroying Rossini's, their world of rules and consequences erupts into a real-world war. From corrupt city officials and violent threats to a devastating fire and a frame for murder, Vanessa and April must rely on their unbreakable bond-and a formidable group of allies-to fight for their restaurant, their future, and their very lives.
