Ava Munroe sizzles in this Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore-inspired friends to lovers romance.

Chef Enzo Barone is the hot thing they warn you about when they tell you to stay out of the kitchen, but I always intended to give my boss his distance.

Unfortunately, FedEx tempted fate when it sent *that* special toy box to the restaurant instead of my house.

Still, I was determined to keep chill vibes (er, no pun intended) between me and my boss now that he’d seen a little too much of my private life. I promised my friends I would stay man-sober for a year, and I meant it!

I’m definitely not tempted by the fiery bosshole with tatted arms and a dimpled chin. Not into the protective brother who gave his runaway sibling a better home. Won’t fall for the delicious, grumpy man who swore off relationships for the exact opposite reason from me—because he 100%, definitely doesn’t believe in love.

Then one steamy “no strings attached” rooftop encounter later, and I’m relapsing.

I’m Enzo’s employee. I’m a single mom with baggage.

And I’m head over heels for the man who is only prepared to offer a taste, when this love addict is desperate for the whole meal.

How can I convince Enzo this fire between us is the real deal—not a flash in the pan?
