18 parts Ongoing Eve never expected her life to take this turn. Just weeks ago, she was another aspiring chef, pouring everything into a dream that felt just out of reach. Now, she's stolen more kisses than she ever planned, saved her university's graduation party to the applause of top chefs, and landed a dream job at an elite restaurant. But nothing compares to the electricity of Michael-the one man who matches her spark for spark.
Their connection is effortless, a thrilling game of cat and mouse-glances that linger too long, touches that burn, moments that beg to be something more. Eve allows herself to get lost in it, to revel in the intoxicating pull between them. Until one night changes everything. By sheer coincidence, fate throws them onto the same path from different angles. Michael isn't just the man who makes her feel alive. He's her new boss.
Reality slams into her, forcing her to reconsider everything. She's worked too hard for this opportunity-too hard to have whispers follow her, to risk being seen as anything other than talented. But for the first time in her life, she's not overthinking. She's feeling. Wanting. Living.
Now, she stands at a crossroads. Does she drown out the noise and chase this passion that has awakened something raw and real inside her? Or does she walk away, choosing reason over desire, leaving behind the one thing that finally made her feel alive?
