A spicy grumpy-sunshine, age-gap, close-proximity romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …
I’m the mysterious one. The angriest alphahole who never bends. And she’s the woman who will bring me to my knees.
As the executive chef and face of my family’s billion-dollar empire, time is the one luxury I don’t have.
With endless responsibilities and nonstop demands, I lost my passion and love for the art of cooking. What used to be my dream job is now my worst nightmare.
I was ready to walk away and give up everything we’d built … Until Alivia happened.
She was supposed to be a temporary diversion so we could satisfy each other’s desires and then never see each other again … Yet I knew she was different right away.
A woman who was my complete opposite, the calm to my storm. The sunshine to my darkness. With a body that left me speechless. What I didn’t see was how much we both craved a break.
Me from a career that would eventually kill me, her from an abusive home life. When two people in pain connect, an explosion erupts. That was us.
All fire and longing, mixed with a genuine need to seek shelter in one another’s arms.
While I’m still savoring the taste of her on my lips, I see her again unexpectedly and wonder … is our connection enough to surpass the secrets between us, or were we only meant to have those two nights together?
