When Chloe Carter's boyfriend Josh left her to take a job
in Hawaii as a personal chef, Chloe thought her world had
pretty much ended. But when she has a chance to work with
Kyle Boucher, son of famed chef Hank Boucher, on a cookbook
project, Chloe jumps at the opportunity, even though she
knows she's bound to experience heartache along the way.
As she and Kyle begin to gather recipes from some of the
top chefs in Boston, Chloe soon realizes that she is doing
most of the work while Kyle is trying to please his
obnoxious father. Scoring what seemed to be a coup for the
project, Chloe contacts one of Josh's friends, Digger, the
top chef at one of the newest and trendiest restaurants in
town, and asks if he would share some of his signature
dishes. Digger agrees, but when Chloe goes to his apartment
for a combined tasting/meeting with Kyle and his father,
she finds the building ablaze and Digger dead from the fire
in what police have ruled a homicide.
Reeling from the tragedy, Chloe is determined to find out
who would kill her friend. Making matters more complicated
is Kyle's obvious obsession with Chloe's friend Adrianna
and Josh's unexpected return to Boston. But the clues soon
begin to fall together, and the murderer's identity would
rock the restaurant world.
The Gourmet Girl is back for another exciting adventure in
Jessica Conant-Park and Susan Conant's fifth collaborative
book, COOK THE BOOKS. Conant-Park
and Conannt, who are mother and daughter, combine their
talents to bring an enjoyable, suspense-filled story with a
healthy helping of humor for their readers to enjoy.

can't get away from the kitchen.
