Congrats! The 2010 RITA Winner for Best Novel With Strong
Romantic Elements
In this sumptuous new novel, Barbara O’Neal offers readers a
celebration of food, family, and love as a woman searches
for the elusive ingredient we’re all hoping to
find….
It’s the opportunity Elena Alvarez has been
waiting for–the challenge of running her own kitchen in a
world-class restaurant. Haunted by an accident of which she
was the lone survivor, Elena knows better than anyone how to
survive the odds. With her faithful dog, Alvin, and her
grandmother’s recipes, Elena arrives in Colorado to find a
restaurant in as desperate need of a fresh start as she
is–and a man whose passionate approach to food and life
rivals her own. Owner Julian Liswood is a name many people
know but a man few do. He’s come to Aspen with a troubled
teenage daughter and a dream of the kind of stability and
love only a family can provide. But for Elena, old ghosts
don’t die quietly, yet a chance to find happiness at last is
worth the risk.
