All Sienna Hale wanted was a steady paycheck, a quiet kitchen, and zero drama.
What she got was a grumpy billionaire with trust issues, a smart fridge that talks back, and a schedule so strict it makes military training look like a picnic.
Damien Cross doesn't do small talk, sugar, or second chances. But after his third ulcer scare, his assistant hires a private chef to save his health and maybe his humanity.
Sienna's meals are warm, comforting, and not at all part of Damien's carefully curated routine. But as awkward dinners turn into late-night leftovers and unexpected conversations, both of them realize they might be hungry for something more.
He's used to control.
She's used to chaos.
And somewhere between burnt salmon and sarcastic sticky notes... things start to heat up.

REISS
Excerpt: I glanced at him. His jaw clenched and grip on the steering tighter turning his knuckles white. His expensive watch winked at me in the moonlight. Yet I continued "Im not blessed with good facial features nor do I have a body like a stripper. I'm just an ordinary woman." What? It is the truth. The next moment I know the car came to a halt. I turned to Damien giving him a confused look. He was gazing at the road ahead. "Is everything okay, Mr Reiss?" I inquired. After a few good minutes he cursed "Fuck this." He leaned over the console. His ocean blue eyes were darkened with anger or was that lust? Why would he lust over me? My question was answered when he held my chin and lifted my face and before I could predict what he was upto, he smashed his lips on to mine. He moved his lips over mine biting my upper lip and then the lower one. It wasn't like the chaste kiss he gave me when I looked after his brother. That was more a gentle kiss. This was anything but that. His tongue darted out to lick my lips. When I thought it was over and he was pulling away he surprised me with his question "Mind if I ... deepen the kiss?" He asked his voice huskier and deeper than the usual. °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Loviana, a sweet kind soul who worked at a mental health care agency called ' Sane'.
