It’s been a decade since a girl in red ripped out my heart and gave it back in mangled pieces. For ten years, I’ve sworn off attachments of any kind. There have been plenty of women, but I’ve never allowed it to go any further than pleasure. And I’ve certainly never made the mistake of letting relationships infiltrate my kitchen again.
But there’s something about my fiery pastry chef that turns all of my usual rules to ash. When she says, “Yes, chef,” I have to smother the urge to throw her over the prep counter and make her scream it. But I can’t lose focus. I have bigger things to worry about than getting dirty in my restaurant.
There’s a shadow from my past that’s come back to haunt me. And red has taken on a far more ominous hue. My attention is split between the flames that keep building in my kitchen and the chaos erupting in my personal life.
I don’t know how to escape the carnage that threatens to destroy everything. All I know is that my angél is going to ruin me all over again.

I have no interest in emotional distractions. And I definitely don’t want anything to do with the gorgeous, terrifying executive chef who has always hated me.
He pushes me harder and harder, but nothing is ever perfect enough for him. Some days, I want to take my chef’s knife to his favored appendage and see how quickly those sharp critiques comes when he’s on the wrong end of a blade.
Nothing has been easy since I left Columbia as teenager to study culinary in America. I’ve had to fight for every opportunity and beat down every person who said I could never make it in this industry. At this point, I don’t know how to stop fighting. And nothing gets my blood raging more than the chef who only ever tells me, “Again.” But I’ll show him I’m made for this—by any means necessary.
I didn’t leave my home to lead a life a mediocrity. I left to become the best. And the heat is going to have to get a whole lot hotter in this kitchen before I allow my dreams to burn.”
