About this book:
“A
delightful Christmas romance about finding the perfect recipe for love.
After years of mistakes and regret,
Colin Renwycke finally has a plan: Hone his baking talent at the Denver
Culinary Institute and embark on a new career as a pastry chef. If he's lucky,
he might even manage to earn back his family's respect. But despite his skills
in the kitchen, Colin's a mess in the classroom and his ongoing disasters are
proving too much for his prickly instructor. If he loses his spot at the
school, he's out of backup plans.
Culinary school instructor Rylan
Jefferson has the chance to reclaim her dream of running her own bakery. But
she only has until Christmas Eve to come up with the perfect recipe to impress
an eccentric investor. She has no time for holiday parties or family plans . .
. and especially not for the unruly student baker who couldn't follow a recipe
if his life depended on it.
But Colin has the one ingredient Rylan
needs most—talent. Lots of it. And when he makes a proposal that just might
solve both their problems, Rylan can't say no—even if it does mean traveling
all the way to Iowa. It just might be that the snow-covered plains and a
charming small town full of postcard Christmas cheer are exactly what her
hungry heart needs . . . along with a man who is much more than he seems.”
