Elle Adams doesn't do second chances-especially not with arrogant billionaires who think money can buy anything. So when Hollywood's most wanted bachelor, Santiago Rivera, offers her a job as his personal pastry chef, she shuts him down without hesitation. Her bakery is her life, and she refuses to trade it for his world of luxury and control. Santiago isn't used to hearing "no." Not from anyone. So when Elle rejects him, he does something he swears is purely business... he buys the land her bakery sits on. Now she's working under his roof, in his kitchen, on his terms-and hating every second of it. But Santiago has a secret: he made a bet he could make her fall for him. What starts as a game of pride and power quickly turns dangerous when Elle refuses to play along... and Santiago realizes he's no longer chasing a win. He's chasing her. In a house full of tension, late-night baking, and dangerously close encounters, lines blur, sparks fly, and control slips from his hands. Because the only thing more stubborn than Elle's refusal... Is the way she's starting to feel like home. And when the truth comes out, someone's going to get burned.
