Order CAN’T STAND THE HEAT Today

She’s hungry for experience . . .

For sharp-tongued food critic Miranda Wake, the chance to spend a month in Adam Temple’s kitchen to write an expose is a journalistic dream come true. Surely Miranda can find a way to cut the hotshot chef down to size once she learns what really goes on at his trendy Manhattan restaurant. Trouble is, she never expected Adam to find out her most embarrassing secret: This critic has no idea how to cook!

And he knows just how to satisfy her cravings . . .

Adam’s not about to have his reputation burned by a critic who doesn’t even know the difference between poaching and paring. He’ll just have to give the tempting redhead a few private lessons of his own—teaching her what it means to cook with passion.

". . . snappy, exciting, adventurous and totally unexpected. Can't Stand the Heat . . . is one of the best light-hearted culinary, romantic novels this reviewer has read in a very long time!" —CrystalReviews.com

"Smokin’ hot chefs, sizzling passion and a big dash of charm—no reservations required . . ." —Gena Showalter
