Sometimes a bad first impression is only the beginning . . .
Having grown up watching her grandparents feed the residents of Columbia City, Raven believes running the Soul Food Cafe should be simple. But the neighborhood is gentrifying, and the forced migration of her customers leaves the restaurant in a dire situation. The stress has kept her so busy that Raven is completely blindsided when she comes home to find her fiancé has packed his bags. And what isn’t helping the problem? The handsome, wealthy businessman who has moved into the restaurant next door. It is people like him who are driving out the diversity in the neighborhood with their trendy homes and businesses. The cafe wouldn’t be struggling if people like him weren’t changing the neighborhood for the worse. So why are his sexy overtures so hard to resist?
Patrick Gaines is the oldest son of one of the wealthiest families in Seattle. But after a contentious breakup with his fiancée, he has decided to leave his world of finance and privilege behind. And since he has a passion for eating delicious things, what better way to branch out on his own than to open a high-end steakhouse called Cattle & Vine? But what he doesn’t anticipate is the combative greeting he receives from the restaurant owner next door, and resents being criticized for taking advantage of a lucrative business opportunity. So why can’t he control his desire for Raven’s tastes and talents?
One is oblivious to privilege, the other resistant to change. But together they will discover that some things are worth the fight. And the compromise.
