Ruby Tate is a cautious and controlled woman; her only passions are cooking and her restaurant, Jewels. Unless you count the uncharacteristic one-night stand she had with a charming stranger the night of her sisterβs bachelorette party. And she doesnβt. After all, she got out of his bed the next morning and returned to her real lifeβdealing with a failing restaurant, a not-so-silent silent partner, and a difficult family. And now thereβs this new problem, like a ticking time bomb hiding beneath her white chefβs jacket.
Jonathan Gautier is a rising star in the culinary world. With three successful restaurants, a best-selling cookbook, and a new television show, he should be happy, but after six months on the road filming Seven Worth Saving and working in everyoneβs kitchens but his own, Jonathan is burned-out and uninspired. The closest thing heβs had to a social life was one amazing night with a woman whose name he isnβt even sure of. All he wants is to wrap up this last episode and get back to his own kitchen. Maybe there heβll be able to recapture his love of cooking, because if he canβt, he doesnβt know what on earth heβll do with his life.
When Jonathan walks into Jewels, Ruby is horrified. She canβt believe that the famous chef who is her only hope for saving her restaurant is the man who gave her the best night of her life, and a little something extra. All she wants now is for him to help her save her dreamsβand then go away. But Jonathan has other ideas. Lots of other ideas; most of which involve Ruby, food, and nakedness. And Jonathan didnβt get to be the success that he is by taking βnoβ for an answer. Together, they must find a way to save Jewels, even if that means completely Reinventing Ruby.
