The heart wants what it wants . . . convenient or not. Instead of winning a prestigious cooking competition, Sundia Sharma won infamy by breaking her tailbone on television. Thinking her culinary dreams are over, she prepares to head back to her corporate accounting job. That is, until a world-famous celebrity chef, impressed by her innovative recipes, offers her an internship at his new restaurant. It's Sundia's last shot to prove to herself--and her family--that she has what it takes. If only her crush wasn't the chef's personal assistant . . . and her new roommate. With a love 'em and leave 'em reputation, Avery Daniels is practically famous--perhaps infamous--as far as West Coast lesbians go. As the right-hand woman to a celebrity chef, Avery barely has time to breathe, let alone do dinner or dates. She prides herself on staying cool in all situations, but something about Sundia gets under her skin--and in the stone-cold heart she denies having. Sundia can't afford any more mishaps--or temptations--and firmly friend zones Avery. But staying apart gets more challenging as both their walls slowly crumble in and out of the kitchen. Contains mature themes.
