In the heart of a prestigious restaurant in the city, the head chef, Adrian Hale Vale, is feared for his icy demeanor and uncompromising standards. No one dares to cross him-or try, only to regret it. Then comes Mariana Adina Marquez, a newly hired chef with talent in spades, but so many self-sabotaging quirks and fierce stubbornness that she often clashes with Adrian. Slowly, for all his cold professionalism, Adrian discovers he has a soft spot for Mari-and she, in turn, awakens something in him he's long tried to shut down.

But love wasn't on the menu. Not for someone who swore he'd never risk it again. Still, the wrong table might just lead them both to the right place - and the right person.Complete
