"Some flavors are bittersweet. Some loves are masterpieces in progress."
Painting is Lauren Adelina's escape from reality.
A quiet, responsible only child, she's always been the girl no one needs to worry about. But behind her composed demeanor are feelings she can't express-except through her art. Her paintings bear silent witness to her struggles. To help her financially struggling mother, Lauren sells her artwork, dreaming one day of becoming an interior designer.
Another kind of art inspired Augustus Ivan... food.
From the moment he learned to cook, Ivan knew he wanted to make a name for himself-not because of the powerful family he came from, but through his own talent. In the kitchen, he finds his voice, his confidence, and his truth.
Two artists. Two different worlds.
One paints her pain. The other cooks his passion.
Their first meeting is unexpected, their connection undeniable. Opposites attract, they say-and for a moment, they do.
Lauren is reserved, but she knows what she wants. Ivan is passionate, but he doesn't always know how to stay. Life doesn't always follow the plans we set. And persistence is not always enough.
As time and distance test what they had, they're left with one question:
Can they still express the one art they never mastered-the art of love?
