A beautiful neurosurgeon, after a car accident, travels back in time to the 1970s, becoming the high-profile military wife of her namesake. Faced with her once-despised "country bumpkin" husband, she contemplates escape, only to find herself captivated by his ardent tenderness and rock-hard eight-pack abs. From resistance to submission, the Ice Queen meets a doting husband, igniting a sweet journey from an arranged marriage to true love. Traveling through time and space, just to meet her destined soul mate.

Once an award-winning chef with a flourishing food empire, Elena Valdez never imagined her life would end in tragedy-or begin again in another world. Reborn as Alaina, the Duchess of Aisenburg, Elena awakens in La Vita, a realm of magic, monsters, and rigid noble traditions. Trapped in an unfamiliar body and bound to a distant, intimidating duke through marriage, Alaina must learn to survive court life where whispers cut deeper than blades and trust is a luxury few can afford. With no allies and little warmth in her new home, Alaina turns to the one thing she knows best: cooking. Infusing her dishes with care, memory, and quiet passion, she begins to soften hostile servants, disarm rival noblewomen, and slowly bring life back into the cold halls of Aisenburg estate. As shared meals replace formal silence and the scent of warm bread and simmering sauces fills the mansion, an unexpected intimacy grows between Alaina and her husband. Each dish becomes a confession, each bite a promise-pulling them closer despite secrets, danger, and unspoken desire. [ WARNING! There will be a few chapters with graphic sex scenes.
