Red Duck, Idaho, may be just a speck on the map, but it's
perfect for a hardworking single mom looking for a good
place to start over. Arriving with recipes, ambition, a
silent prayer and two teenage boys, Lucy Carpenter is ready
to cook her way into the hearts and wallets of celebrities
who frequent the nearby ski resort and watering holes.
But she needs somebody to put the word out -- and that
somebody is Drew Tolman, former pro baseball player turned
local big shot. She's heard the rumors -- scandal, women
and more -- but he's the man Lucy needs on her side. It
takes a little effort and a lot of decadence -- in the
kitchen -- but word of Lucy's culinary talents spreads like
melting chocolate.
Soon everyone's got Lucy's number, but her best caller is
Drew. He's eager to convince the deliciously tempting Lucy
that she's the dessert he's been saving room for . . .
